You might’ve noticed something different about Sweet, Short & Stylish today…my blog got a makeover! After a few years of having the same old awful blog design, I decided it was time to invest in a professional website designer.
I’ve actually been avoiding doing this for years because of a bad experience with a “friend” from college that offered to do my blog design years ago. I ended up paying her $500 for a design that she decided not to finish and ended up ignoring all my messages and calls! I was left with a website that wasn’t finished and a mobile version of my website that wasn’t even aligned properly 🙁 I vowed to never work with friends again if it involves anything to do with business, after that experience.
Then last month, I finally decided that it was time to improve my brand and went on a hunt for a good website designer. After a few weeks, I came across Fancy Girl Design Studio and made the investment. Let me just say…it was worth it! The process was seamless and Patricia really understood my vision.
For the blog design, I wanted it to match my Instagram feed which was inspired by the ocean, summer and anything feminine. We came up with a new script logo which is modern and can easily evolve with me as I continue to blog in the future. We also decided on a calm teal color which is a nice change from the pink and black that I had before. Lastly, the blog is so much more organized now and easy to navigate and the best part is the mobile version works perfectly! I can’t say enough good things about working with her.
If you’re feeling uninspired or unmotivated lately with blogging, I highly recommend a new blog design. I can’t describe it but it somehow re-energized me and made me feel excited to blog again! I can’t wait to share with you the new posts that I’ve been working on lately.
Thanks for reading,
