Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur Internet fungerar som arena för alternativ offentlighet och för kommunikativa utövningar om mode- och skönhetsideal. Avsikten är att förstå hur Internet, och i synnerhet bloggen, fungerar som en plats där man kan tillämpa alternativa praktiker på. Undersökningen fokuserar på svenska modebloggar som skiljer sig från mängden, det vill säga de privata bloggar som innehållsmässigt sticker ut och är nischade. De alternativa modebloggar som väljs ut för studien jämförs med Sofi Fahrmans (Aftonbladet) och Ebba von Sydows (VeckoRevyn) bloggar. Anledningen till att valet kom att falla på just Fahrman och von Sydow är att båda är välkända moderedaktörer som ofta figurerar i svenska medier; i TV, tidningar och på Internet. Uppsatsen bygger på såväl beskrivande som komparativa innehållsanalyser av sex modebloggar och kompletteras med en öppen enkät som besvaras av ett antal strategiskt utvalda modebloggare. Syftet är att, genom att skapa en bakgrundsbild kring fenomenet modeblogg, få kunskaper om hur modebloggar upprättade av medieföretag samt privata och alternativa modebloggar skiljer sig åt. Undersökningen handlar inte om att undersöka hela modebloggvärlden, utan enbart en del av den mer ingående, för att se hur Internet utnyttjas som arena, för alternativ offentlighet. / The purpose for this study is to examine how Internet works as a space for alternative publicity and as a communicative practice for fashion and ideal of beauty.

In cyberculture, the advertising experienced changes in the issuer pole and ceased to be the only one to produce content and communication have new voices. The Segmentation and public saturation stimulated by the appearance of different communication devices led advertising to meet the needs of individual consumers, informed by communications technol-ogy, and went on to determine the strategies of advertisers in digital environments frequented by him. With increasing audience of fashion blogging, the collaboration, the sharing and the recommendation were redirected and blogs began to incorporate the interests of the market and consumer publications sponsored by advertising. In this sense, the discourse of fashion bloggers, not translated anymore personal experiences and integrated the goals of advertisers. This study aimed to identify how advertising appropriates the genres of fashion blogs, as bloggers have adopted the language of advertising in their publications and how this dual ownership has changed the relationship between bloggers and readers. With the support of discourse analysis method, we identified how advertising is inserted in the genres of fashion blogs, allowing bloggers adopt the language of advertising and use routinely in publications. We also analyze how this dual process interfered with social relations between bloggers and readers and how these relationships are established in the comments of the publications.

No âmbito da cibercultura, a publicidade experimentou mudanças no polo de emissão em que já não era a única a produzir conteúdo e a comunicação contava com novas vozes. A segmentação e a saturação das audiências estimuladas pelo aparecimento de diferentes dispositivos de comunicação levaram a publicidade a adaptar-se às necessidades do indivíduo e passaram a determinar estratégias que posicionassem os anunciantes nos ambien-tes digitais frequentados por ele. Com o aumento da audiência dos blogs de moda, as premis-sas de colaboração, compartilhamento e recomendação foram redirecionadas e esses blogs passaram a incorporar interesses de mercado e consumo a partir das publicações patrocinadas pela publicidade. Neste sentido, os discursos das blogueiras de moda, que antes traduziam experiências pessoais, passaram a integrar objetivos de divulgação dos anunciantes. O presen-te trabalho tem como objetivo identificar de que maneira a publicidade se apropria dos gêne-ros discursivos presentes nos blogs de moda, como as blogueiras adotaram a linguagem publi-citária em suas publicações e como esta dupla apropriação modificou as relações entre blo-gueiras e leitoras. Com o suporte do método de Análise do Discurso, identificamos como a publicidade se inseriu nos gêneros discursivos dos blogs de moda, permitindo que as bloguei-ras adotassem a linguagem publicitária e passassem a utilizá-la de forma rotineira nas publi-cações. Analisamos ainda como esse duplo processo interferiu nas relações sociais entre blo-gueiras e leitoras e como essas relações são estabelecidas nas conversações nos espaços para comentários.
