I'm excited to share that I've completed the redesign of another blog (first one here)!! This time I had the pleasure of working with one of my favorite style bloggers in DC, Krystin, from Be Loud Be You.

HOMEPAGE HIGHLIGHTS \\
1. Added a new search bar
2. Created a new, centered logo
3. Updated the static navigation bar
4. Removed the sidebar
5. Created feature images for the homepage
Krystin wanted her homepage to feature the first image of every blog post with some "intro" text on the side of the image. She also wanted the flexibility of alternating the image and text from left to right. Scroll up and down on her new homepage here to see what I mean.

3. Added her Instagram feed that links directly to her Instagram profile page
4. Centered the attribution and Mode Media logo

NEW ARCHIVE PAGE \\
Krystin also wanted a way for her readers to easily view her older blog posts. The solution was to create a page that previews the first image and title of her every one of her posts.
