Classmate Blog Critique

It's that time of the year again, and I know you all missed me! Well, if it makes it any better, I have been keeping up with you guys and I am excited to say that my favorite blogs of this year would have to be from Mary Alice Cole and Lauren Estes.

Mary Alice's blog was definitely something to envy. I love your choice of theme; the flip cards are very entertaining. Before I get into your posts, I would like to say I love the choice in background. The texture asks character, but I think it would look better if the texture was more detailed. As someone who is, in my opinion, aesthetically inclined, I appreciate the consistency of your blog and how easy it is on the eyes. Your graphics are very eye-catching as the post opens. My favorite post would have to be "Forever My Miss America". You could tell that it was something that you were well informed about. I also liked your juxtaposition between light more fun details and hard facts.

Lauren's blogs always come off as fun and I hope she is rubbing off on me! What always catches my attention is here consistency in her graphics and how well they tell about her post without even reading. I like the choice of color schemes, but I would suggest playing around with your blog titles font or structure. The pop of orange is fun and attractive, but that gray block around the title kind of throws it off for me. My favorite post would have to be the one about "You" the Netflix series. My main reason being I also did my post over "You" and I got the chance to compare our ideas. I like how you included several reviews to help validate someone's decision over the show. I also like how you got more personal with the characters and their viewpoints. It definitely shows in your research that you were involved in the show.
