Facelift

I woke up this morning with a burning desire to give Gypsy*Diaries a summer facelift (it must be the new month syndrome! ;)) I wanted something more clean and mature and with the new design I think I've accomplished just that, what do you think?

I'm still working on a few tweeks here and there, but I think the overall look is done for now. With a little creativity and a few hours on your hand you can totally change your blog's look and I promise it's easier than you'd think! ;) Who's ready for a face lift? ;)

P.S: Special thanks to Rosa & Carlotta from Illustrated Moodboard who made this illustration of me last year! It's a core part of my new blog identity. Love it! ;)

    Wow, I wish I knew how to tinker around with stuff on the blog as well as you do. This post is not only informative, it's also laid out in a super cute way. Everything looks great!

    I am in absolute need of a face lift (have you seen my non-creative blank blog?! haha!) but I'm so daunted by the task...I don't think I know enough!

    I am loving your changes! I really love the category indicators and that drawing of you is so good! It's a great, clean look!

    This looks really nice! I was also trying to simplify my blog and make it look cleaner but I have absolutely no webpage design skills so I had to use the fixed template. Oh well... :D
