Today is officially the 3 year blogiversary of Dramatis Personae. I had hoped to create a v-log for you, to say thank you. The community I’ve become a part of is so incredible, and without you, I’m sure that I wouldn’t have stuck to this so long. This blog started as a place for me to share my love of clothes and fashion outside of Livejournal. It’s grown to something much more than that, and that’s thanks to YOU.
3 years later, I’m still finding my place in this blog, still finding my voice, growing and changing the direction as I see fit. In the next year, I hope to make this a great place, to make it more personal, and to continue to share all that makes up la dolce vita.
I wanted to highlight my favorite posts from each year. For those who’ve been around since I started, a fun flashback to where the site started–for those who are new, a great chance to see old posts you may have missed & I hope will love. Of the hundreds of posts I write I each year, I tried to narrow it down to the most thoughtful, useful, and those I enjoyed writing most– I hope you enjoy them all and will be around for the next year!
