Olivia of LTY Designs‘ review.

Presentation:
You can’t really go wrong with a pink/brown color scheme, the two pair off quite well together and contrast beautifully. I like the minimalist approach, but I think you could have maybe added more depth with the use of gradients or patterns. It’s kind of flat as is. Additionally, the pink you’re using for the header isn’t particularly flattering. Don’t get me wrong, the light pink is really pretty and goes well with the brown, but the main strip is simply too hot pink. There is a fine line between using really bright colors tastefully and killing my retinas. I think you crossed it. Other notables: you have a million and a half ads everywhere. I’m all for a starving webdesigner trying to make a few bucks, but these ads are simply suffocating. I think the Google ads on the left sidebar are pretty discrete, but the large ad with a youtube video at the bottom is just… too much.
