hmm the double image of the girl is really strange; the smaller one is tilted and the angle is really weird when the 2 arms are so close together. also, when I see the smaller image I don't automatically think that it's tilted, I feel as though her neck is sticking out and her body is supposed to be in that stance and she's just standing really awkwardly or something.

I love the colors that you used, but the images are weird, as the others said. The big one looks overly sharp and the small one looks blurry. You may want to soften her skin in the big one or something...She looks old.

i don't mean this to sound condescending, but i've never really understood the purpose behind using "double celebrity" photos as website layouts. they just seem extremely overused to me.

also, like most other personal sites these days, it's a gigantic file. it feels weird when the header image takes up the entire screen and i have to scroll down & down to get to the content. what about compressing the image (a lot) and actually shrinking the image? you might find it to be more creatively inspiring to be forced to work in a smaller area.

Yeah... the image of Lauren Conrad in the back is very obviously sharpened, while the one in the front is very blurry. It's so random, and I don't think it goes well with the flower.

I'm not a fan of the repeating celebrity image. If you're gonna put two, you should find two different photos of her. I personally think it'd be fine if you just got rid of the smaller LC - bc the quality on it is smaller and bc of the positioning, she's sort of... distracting.
