CF’s Third Birthday Celebration: New Look & More!

As many of you know, today, March 1st, marks CF’s third birthday! We are officially 3 years old! It’s been an amazing three years so far – I’m so, so happy that the little fashion site I started way back then has grown so much. Even more so, I’m delighted that it continues to enchant and inspire so many people across the world!
To celebrate our birthday, we have a bunch of fabulous stuff planned – and we’re going to be celebrating for the entire month of March!
First of all, you may notice that the site has a new look! We’ve been planning to switch it up for a while, and thought our birthday would be the perfect time for a makeover. While it’s not a drastic change, it’s a definite step up from our old layout (made in 2008!), and we hope you love it as much as we do! Let us know your thoughts with a comment. Also, since the layout is so new, we’re still working out the kinks. So if something looks a little odd on your computer/browser, please let us know and we’ll have it fixed soon!
Second, to say a huge THANK YOU to all of you for the endless support, love, and enthusiasm, we’re going to be giving away some fabulous birthday gifts to CF readers over the course of the month! We’ll have details on our first big bday giveaway later today, so make sure to check back!
Thanks again for all of your love & support over the past 3 years, and please let us know what you think of the new look!

the new layout is very clean & simple- i love it. the only thing i don’t like so much is the amount of white- it almost makes it look washed out, just a little bit.
but otherwise, i love it. keep on blogging, this site is one of my favorites!
Talisha

Michelle

Happy Birthday! :)
Love your blog and the old layout, but the new one looks good too. But maybe you should have had a little more contrast in the colours? maybe som fade blue and pink in the background would be nice? But otherwise it looks nice and fresh with a new look :)
Can’t wait for what’s coming up this month on CF!
aish
happy b’day

keep getting better!!!!
Monica
happy birthday!!! i love your site
Rebecca
Now that I’m looking at it more, it would be nicer if the white boarders on the side were a darker colour. That helps your eyes focus on the middle of the page, where all the info is.

The new layout looks incredible. It still looks distinctly CF but it’s fresh, too. I love the white space. It’s a little minimal which I love.
Being a part of CF has been amazing to say the least. Thank you Zephyr and Happy Birthday to CF!

Happy bday!
What I love about your website is that, although it’s (just?) a fashion blog, it’s preety consistent on sending a message about positive body image, diversity and other positive stuff. Fashion really should be about loving yourself, like I think it’s for you all. Keep up the good work!
