Before:
Now:
Just browsed through some pictures from my blog archives. In a way everything has changed, yet in a way nothing has changed. Hahah! I’m still the same person as I was when I started blogging, liking many of the same things, that you can even probably see on the pictures. But wow, I’ve grown up while having a blog. Okay, I still have floral pillows and I love girly things (and people sometimes mistaken me as a 16-year-old girl) but still, having blogged for almost 10 years means documenting life from a very long time. Feels funny. My hobby turned into a job, I moved on my own, I started taking care of myself more and my things, and my business. And now here I am, trying to find something very dramatic to say to start my very first blog post here on the new address. But I can’t find anything else to say, that I only wish I will blog for 10 years more. And I wish all of you found your way here, whether you are new or an old reader. Welcome! 🙂 Here it starts again!
Selasin juuri vanhoja postauksia monien monien vuosien takaa, ja sen jälkeen vähän uudempia. Hui, tuntuu että samaan aikaan mikään ei ole muuttunut ja silti kaikki on muuttunut. Oon vielä sama ihminen kuin blogia aloittaessa, samanlainen maku monen jutun suhteen, jonka ehkä havaitsee kuvakollaaseistakin. Mutta silti, voisi melkein sanoa että olen kasvanut aikuiseksi samanaikaisesti blogia pitäessä. Joku siellä voi nyt väittää vastaan, tykkäänhän mä vieläkin samoista kukkatyynyistä ja tyttömäisestä hömpästä ja välillä mua erehdytään luulemaan alaikäiseksi (!!?), mutta blogi on ollut aina mukana kaikessa muutoksessa. Sen aikana olen muuttanut yksin asumaan, harrastus on muuttunut työksi, olen perustanut oman yrityksen, pidän huolta itsestäni ja hyvinvoinnistani, ja yleisesti sanottuna olen aika itsenäinen. Hah. Blogin alkuaikoina taas, no kaikki on ollut aivan erilaista. En tiedä mitä tällä aivan halusin sanoa, kai vain toivottaa teidät tervetulleiksi uuteen osoitteeseeni. Toivottavasti moni teistä on löytänyt perille, niin vanhoista kuin uusistakin lukijoista. Tervetuloa! 🙂 Tästä se taas lähtee!

Olisi kiva saada enkun kielinen pätkä esim. kursiivilla tai päinvastoin, selkeyttäisi 🙂
Marianna says
Joo totta, tuosta unohtui erottelu, laitan varmaankin mustalla toisen tekstin ja harmaalla toisen jatkossa 🙂

You’re such a charming and inspiring girl!I’ve been reading your blog for 4 years now. With all the small changes your personality is still so nice and kind and it’s revealed in every single post that you write! Thank you so much for inspiration! 🙂

Anna says
Welcome back you too Marianna! It’s just crazy how time flies. I remember every single picture you posted in this post. Guess what, I just realized that I came across your blog four years ago – I found a picture of you on Tumblr and then I asked on Twitter who you are. That’s when my journey with you began. Wow! 🙂
Now it’s time for the next chapter! Let’s do this! <3
Ps. I hope you just have been to busy to mail me yet… And that you didon't forget it at all.

Ninni says
Ooh oma yritys, millainen?? 🙂
Heidi says
Onnea ja menestystä siulle, Marianna! Olet ansainnut sen mitä blogillasi olet kokenut.
Ninni, mie luulen että tämä blogi on hänen yrityksensä. 🙂
Marianna says
Hih, ihan vain blogi, siirryin silloin freelanceristä toiminimen perustamiseen. 🙂
mari says
I loved old marianna! You were so friendly, cheerful, ispiring.. Your outfits were pure masterpieces! Now i like you too, but (please do’t be mad)you are not the same person for me as you used to be. I guess it seems to be result of your blog beeing more and more popular, and you changed your style a little for much more expensive things, also really nice, but not so inspirig as old Marinanna, who had uniqe clothes ald outfits without spending fortune on it. I hope you won’t be mad at me, i wanna to tell yu that long time ago, cause i’m your fan since beginning. I admired you the most in 2009-2012. There were some outfits i remember til now, like dark maxi, white top and orange aldo bag- which i was searching for ages and never find the same! haha! Or your burgundy fedora hat with black poncho, leather-look like leggins and wedges, or black coat with furry scarf, black heels and the most beautiful bag with leopard pattern on the planet, those were the days! 🙂 Anyway, good luck!
Sue says
Well, I have the same feeling about her style. I also liked the old combinations. However, the style changes, it is absolutely normal.
The character is still lovely. :)Doubt she would be mad.
Marianna says
Thank you Mari. 🙂 Of course I won’t be mad, I know myself that I have changed, I know what you mean. But the same time, I’ve found myself and my style more, but I agree with you that I experienced different things more style wise when I was younger. Thank you for the comment and for reading! 🙂

Hello,
First of all I wanted to say that I wish you all the best for your new start 🙂
I have been following your blog for more than 4 years and I’m a big fan of yours. Your style inspires me so much.
The other day I went to the hairdresser to put some color highlights on my hair and now seeing your pics, I’ve realized that it’s almost the same color 🙂
I wish you all the best
Greetings from Luxemburg

Francesca says
Hi Marianna! Even if I’m an old reader (I’m following your blog since you started writing in english), I think this is the first time I leave a comment. I really love your style and, from what you publish, beside being a good blogger, you look like a nice person.. the one many people would like to be friend with. Moreover, I’ve the feeling you’re a strong girl. Another thing I appreciate about your blog is that you still can keep private things out of the blog. Good luck 🙂 Greetings from Italy
Francesca
Marianna says
Wow, thank you Francesca. 🙂 So lovely. <3

darja says
I remember when I was 15? And Ive just found your blog, just here, on indiedays. I remember I dont sleep at night becaue i have to l o o k at your outfits, your ikea shopping (now i live 15 minutes from ikea, my dream came true haha) and you totally amazed me! Your body was and it still is perfect, you are trying to keep smiling, avoid obstacles, being proud of who you become, just being you! I like you, even if i’m anonymous person/girl without any surname or face. I dont know you at all and you dont know me of course, but your blog with you is some little part in my life. I hope readers (and people who comment!) are also a little part of your life. Stay tunned, keep smiling Marianna and live your life, be good person and blog! Xoxo, your old (but still younger a few years than you) reader, Darja (#polishgirl) <3
Marianna says
Seriously! That’s so amazing, just made my evening <3 Thank you Darja, I'm so lucky to have readers like you!

Niin paljon kuin blogia ja tyyliäsi tykkäänkin lukea, olisi mukava joskus päästä vähän pintaa syvemmälle. Kuulostaa ehkä tyhmältä ja ymmärrän että haluat pitää tietyn osan elämästäsi yksityisenä, mutta välillä olisi kiva lukea jotain mikä ei välttämättä liity muotiin tai kauniisiin asioihin ollenkaan:)
Marianna says
Ei kuulosta ollenkaan tyhmältä, laitan tän mieleen. 🙂 Kiitos Jane!
Wera says
Moikka Marianna
Onnea blogimuuton johdosta! Jatkan innolla seuraamista myös täällä uudessa osoitteessa ja odottelen innolla jo tulevia postauksia. Hienoa kuulla miten pitkälle oot päässyt blogisi kanssa, enkä yhtään ihmettele, sillä henkilökohtaisesti blogisi on ollut jo monen monta vuotta yksi lemppareistani. 🙂
Hyvää viikonalkua!
Marianna says
Kiitos Wera, onpa ihana kuulla! 🙂
Aurora says

Kat says
Hi Marianna, great to see you back!
Will you eventually move your blog post history to indiedays? I sometimes look for random things and go thru history to find some inspiration. Or will you old blog remain on costume?
Thank you

Petra says
En tiedä ootko jo tietoinen tästä, mutta tällä hetkellä blogia ei pysty seuraamaan bloglovinin kautta, ainoastaan food kategorian postaukset löytyy jostain syystä. Toivottavasti asia korjaantuu pian! 🙂
Elvira says
Juu sama mulla ei löydy hausta ollenkaan eikä postaukset oo päivittyneet etusivulle. Ja sulla on bloglovinin linkki tuolla ylhäällä ja se ei toimi/auta! Ois kiva, että asia korjattas kun sun blogi on yks lemppareist 🙂
Marianna says
Äh toivon että Bloglovin fiksaa tän nopeasti! :/ Siellä oltiin jo pyynnöstäni päivitetty osoitetta, mutta johtamaan väärään paikkaan eikä tähän etusivulle uusiin postauksiin, toivottavasti siellä pian korjataan virhe. Mutta kiitokset kun kerrotte! 🙂
Dixi Wonderland says
It has been so much fun to follow you from the start! I so remember all the old pictures and I love the way the blog has chnaged with you. I have a hard time beliving the people that say that you´re mean and a stuck up just because your blog got bigger, I don´t feel that at all! I think you´re still the same sweetheart as when you started blogging. It will be so much fun to see how 2015 will turn out for you and the blog 😀
Marianna says
Thank you so much Dixi <3 😀 Awww the sweetest thing to hear!

Hei Marianna! Oletko katsonut Sweatshop – deadly fashion dokumentit? Siinä norjalaisia muotibloggaajia lähetetään Kambodzaan kuukaudeksi töihin tehtaalle, jossa heidän vaatteensa tuotetaan. Suosittelen lämpimästi dokumenttia, jaksot löytyy netistä! Olisi myös kiva kuulla sinulta kommenttia! 🙂
Marianna says
Moi! Olen kuullut tästä jotain, täytyy perehtyä tarkemmin ennen kommentoitia 🙂
