Criticism

• No color balance / clear vision of colors used. Seems to be random, using purple, blue, white, gray and black.
• White on gray background is a horrible color choice because of the bad readability (see the dates on the blog).
• Hashtags or other symbols should never be included in the title (e.g. #Shopping, ★Advice♪). It doesn't look clean. Instead, use font icons or standard icons.
• Irregular font sizes. Why is the header of a paragraph smaller than the text itself in the sidebar? In general, normalize all the font sizes, using a clearly defined size for each type of heading.
• The font used seems to be 'Trebuchet MS'. There are much better looking fonts out there, suitable for writing/blogs, should use those.
• The header coming from blogspot at the top is very ugly. It should at least have a different background color if it's separated by a line with the main content. Or even better, just remove it completely.
• The post footer has a lot of text and links that aren't really needed on the first visit of a website. In fact it could simply be reduced to showing the comment count only:
• Almost all the borders could need a little border radius to make them look better:
• The general layout (fixed width, centered column separated into main and sidebar column) is okay but it would be nice to have another background for the actual site while the main column stays white.
• There's a space missing in the footer saying "Japankuru2012-2013". It's just a simple typo but it's unprofessional.
