Hi Larissa,

I tend to agree with most of the previous posts. Heidi in particular raised some great points...

Overall, I think the site looks a little "dated". It could do with a bit of a 'freshen' up.

Navigation is hugely important. It needs to be consistent across the whole site.

Your site colours should also be consistent. As mentioned, some pages have a black background, others are white and some pink(ish).

The menu colour, pink(ish) on orange(ish) is kinda ugly. Not really the best combination and the colours themselves aren't really pleasant to look at.

I'd tone down the pink outlines around everything. Not everything needs to be outlined.

Your main banner image looks a little grainy. A bit too much jpg compression.

You've gone a bit overboard with the Total Luxury on the "About Us" page.

As Elizabeth mentioned, you'd be much better using a contact form than linking your email address on the Contact page. Email addresses written in text, even when they're not linked, are just asking to be Spammed. If you dont want to use an email form, at least change the email address to something more suitable than "admin", as Heidi suggested.

You've used the same image on the "About us" and "Contact Us" pages, which is fine, but it looks kinda funny with all the whitespace around it, especially with one edge being straight. An image like that lends itself to being flush against an edge or blended in with some other design. Also, it sits in different places on both pages, obviously because of the different text content. If you're going to have a "two-column" or "multi-column" site, then the column widths shold be consistent across the whole site (unless of course there's a good reason to change them). In your case, on both these pages, you have the image in the left column and the text in the right. The widths should be the same so that the image sites in the same place on both pages.

The "shopping cart" buttons look a bit cheap 'n nasty. The "Add to Cart" button has (what's supposed to be) a kind of dropshadow effect, yet the "Proceed to Checkout" button doesn't. Also, your "Delete" and "Update Basket" buttons look totally different yet again.

Anyway, just a few thoughts to consider.
Good luck.

Anthony.
