A Year of Blogging.

   Today,  

   becomes one! 

With a brand new header designed by my brother ! 

  
   I can't believe it's been a year already...! It seems like yesterday that I was sitting on my desk a year ago, scanning again and again my favorite fashion blogs worldwide, flirting with the idea of creating one of my own, writing down possible names for it, sketching headers, imagining how I would like it to be...!

   I still remember the beautiful anxiety I felt when I did my very first post, wearing my beloved miu miu's and photographing them from every possible angle! I was curious about how this whole thing would work or if anybody would find my posts interesting and worth commenting on. I recall times that readers were somehow increasing, slowly but steadily, and I felt so happy about it! 

   But, blogging for red rose cheeks has not always been so great. There have been days that blogging didn't seem so much fun, as I often felt disappointed about the traffic of people, the readership, the quality of my very own posts, or the fact that it seemed slightly unfair that some of my well-set (in my opinion) posts  were not recognised as I was expecting them to be, while famous fashion blogs around the world received handreds or, at least, dozens of comments, even though they may have not been so well-set or did not present anything new, for that matter (again, in my view). If you are a blogger reading this right now, I guess that this feeling may sound familiar to you, that you may have dealed with it at some point of your blogging time. If you are not a blogger reading this right now, I cannot imagine how this would sound to you, if it might seem vain or even pathetic. But I know that when I decide to do somenting, I want to do it at least decently, and I need to get a feed-back from it, in order to know what I am doing wrong or what I should improve about it. 

   I cannot hide that these unpleasant feelings still make their appearance from time to time, but I try to get over them and focus on the positive aspects of blogging, which mainly consist of this weird satisfaction of trying out something very new, of expressing myself through the blog ,of  being more active on fashion issues, of meeting interesting people out of the greek blogosphere, of attending some great fashion shows with my girls, all dressed up and excited, of finding inspiration everywhere around ,and hopefully giving some. 

   Excuse me if I tired you with my superfluity, but I just felt like saying all that stuff out loud. 

   Happy One-Year-Old Birthday to red rose cheeks and thank you, readers, for spending some of your time here through this year! 


   p.s. Huge thanks to my brother too, who devoted time in designing this amazing header, which fits just perfectly here! ♥
