I love your color scheme everything in this layout is very unified and really portrays what you were going for. If I have to make one small comment i'd shrink the body copy column in just a bit more to get it away from that right edge. Overall this is excellent work great job!

Very nice indeed, Kaylyn. It looks suitably 70's now.

You're using texture, both the presence of it and the absence of it, very well on this design. I especially like the floral arrangement behind your self portrait. It reminds me of some wallpapers from the period. Your colors are very 70's as well and work well together. You're also using contrast well throughout the composition. Your navigation is large and easy to find/use. I also like the subtle depth you established by making your header ever so slightly wider than the rest of your composition.

I only have a couple of issues. I don't really care for your headline font. I think it's period appropriate, but I'm not sure how well it goes with your composition. Also I think you could have moved the self portrait column and the text column closer to the center to create more even margins/gutters.

Otherwise and excellent design. Now I need to throw on the CHiPS theme and find a T-Top Firebird.

Great work!

Great job making good even better! I like the fonts a lot, they convey 70s more to me and are easier to read. The color palette is nice, I like how you left the page white and then set all the color on top of it, it gives it breathing room and makes it feel light. The graphic of the girl feels more warm and organic also.

Hey Kaylyn!

Definitely love the changes you made to your layout. Your fonts definitely say 70's! It's super stylish just like you! I love the wood panel texture too. It's a nice subtle touch. Great job!

Hi, Kaylyn. Like the RETRO colors and font you used. Clean design that's easy to navigate. You might want to leave a little more space from the right side of your body content and the right edge, feels a little crowed. Same for the picture box, might want to move a little toward the right. Fun illustration that ties in your colors and 70's feel. Great work!
