Whitespace in use. The categories and popular entries are listed at the top of the page, not in the sidebar as they usually are.
Veerle Pieters
An almost “classic”, well-known design, but still incredibly beautiful. Veerle makes use of a dark layout with quite colourful scheme. The result is impressive – and the position of site elements extremely well thought-out.

Kevin Kornell (Movable Type)
A typical weblog doesn’t look like an illustrated magazine. Kevin Kornell’s blog does. This one makes use of an “oldie”-style.

Extensive use of visual elements prevails; it might be a nice idea, but the content should prevail.
Nick La (Wordpress)
Playful design with dozens of swirls, curves and artistic elements.
Laura Alter (Wordpress)
Markus Zeeh (Wordpress)
Playful flower-images and ornaments seem to be trends.

Bottled Sky (Wordpress)
Probably not the most gorgeous layout ever made, but well-structured. The use of colors communicates the idea of the site.
Johanna Hallin (Wordpress)
Cabana (Wordpress)
Sometimes it is an interesting approach to use a “thin” layout, although it should rather be an exception.

Stylish, readable and clean. The site doesn’t look like blog at all – at least at the first glance.
