New name

Forever 21 sweater; jcpenney plaid shirt and jeans, Aldo tiff loafers

As you can see I've upgraded to a new camera. A GE power-pro x500 to be precise. It's the bomb! Although I still want a canon, this will suffice for now.

I had been thinking about a new title for the blog for the past months. I hated that every time I googled it a munch of nail polishes showed up. (not that I didn't know that Vernis a Ongle was nail polish for french of course). but it was getting annoying. so...... after much consideration and thoughts I settled with "Mante" the meaning behind it? well since I love this blog so much, I thought I should name it after someone I equally love. My maternal grandmother. She passed away about five years ago. So I thought naming this after her will leave her in my heart every single day. Her name was Mariam but we gave her the nickname Mante.(hence the url "mantemariam"). I wanted "mante.blogspot.com but that was already taken. I know I was shocked too. but yeah. whatever. Here's what you need to know about her.  she was a fearless, Independent woman a hero to many and for that, nobody could ever replace her.
What do you guys think of my new blog name? do you like it or hate it?

  3. I love your jumper! I've also thought about changing my blog name- do you not loose your followers by doing it, I thought they automatically got deleted?
    I love the new name, and I think it is so sweet to name it after your grandma!

  16. Gorgeous new blog name, I love that you've chosen to change it to something personal and something that means a lot to you. Your grandmother sounds like a wonderfully inspirational person! I never got to meet my maternal grandmother, but my paternal grandmother and I are very close :) There's a new post up on my blog, so feel free to stop by!
    xoxo, Veena
