Greetings, everyone! ♥
If you’re a new blogger or a seasoned one, a business owner selling products and/or services you know how much work goes into developing and maintaining a website. The aesthetics of our website is one thing, functionality is another, but they work together to create an enjoyable, seamless experience for our valued visitors. This can be a daunting process. BUT it can be energizing if we have the right tools to design a website that we’re proud to own.
If you’re looking for beautiful feminine website design for your blog and/or business this post is for you. Having a website that we love is essential for success. Of course an enthusiastic passion for what we do and an intense desire to thrive play a role too, but the aesthetics and functionality of our website are guiding components to how our journey (as a blogger and/or business owner) unfolds. Our website is the gatekeeper of our stories and success.
What do we want our readers and visitors to feel when they visit? I think it’s safe to say we want everyone to feel welcome, hope they stay a while, enjoy their visit, and return again soon. Isn’t this what we’re striving for?
The good news is having a beautiful, intuitive website isn’t necessarily expensive. Nope. In this digital age, there are so many resources at our fingertips. There are free themes via WordPress, but you can be limited with customization, features, and options available. Or you may need coding experience. It’s doable, yes, but if you’re not happy with your website aesthetically and have limited features, you have options elsewhere.
When I decided that I needed a website makeover, I spent countless hours browsing themes before I decided on my current theme. I love Restored 316 Designs, their website themes are beautiful, easy to use, and the support is awesome. My current theme is the REFINED theme designed by Restored 316 Designs and purchased via StudioPress. In case you’re interested in this design. 😉
After my extensive search, I thought I’d compile a list of 15 beautiful feminine, intuitive themes from various designers who have fantastic reputations and reviews to cement their work in high regard.
Things to Consider:
A few things to consider before you decide on a theme is the platform you’re using or going to use. If your website is created with WordPress.com, you’ll need to upgrade to the Business Plan to be able to import themes and access plugins. If your website is self-hosted with WordPress.org, you can easily import a theme and access the necessary plugins to create an intuitive design.
If you’re looking to create an online store using WooCommerce (a WordPress plugin), you want to make sure your theme is WooCommerce compatible. It likely is, as many designers actually design their themes with this in mind. For example, the Refined theme I’m using is WooCommerce optimized. If you don’t see “WooCommerce Ready” listed in the theme description when you visit the listing, you can certainly ask the designer via their Questions/Contact page.
Also, you’ll notice themes that work with WordPress may require the Genesis Framework by StudioPress or Divi for functionality and optimization. Some times this is included with the theme, but not necessarily. For example, the Refined theme I’m using requires the Genisis Framework. It’s an additional one-time expense. It’s worth it as the Genisis Framework offers many benefits!
*NOTE: If you’re looking for web hosting, WP Engine has fantastic packages. AND with a WP Engine Plan, you’ll get the Genesis Framework & 35 StudioPress Themes for free. The Refined Theme and Market Theme by Restored 316 Designs are included with this promotion. Score! ♥ To learn more visit ~ WP Engine.
To ensure a diverse showcase of themes, I’ve included themes that work with Shopify, another eCommerce platform.
Disclosure: I value quality design and customer service and only promote products that have earned the recognition as such. Staying true to this standard, I became an Affiliate member of these reputable platforms. As an Affiliate, I endorse the products and services I use and value in high regard. If you see the value in these products and choose to purchase via my affiliate referral links, I may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you. Thank you. ♥
The information listed below each theme is just a glimpse of the features included with that theme. You can see more details, including demos, by visiting and viewing each theme. It was impossible to include every detail here without creating an extremely lengthy post!
Okay, let’s get to the good stuff! ♥
