Rihanna and A$AP Rocky had to break out their trusty umbrella at Monday night’s (May 19) rainy Highest 2 Lowest world premiere at France’s Cannes Film Festival.

Rocky wore a black suit, black Ray-Bans and a full set of grillz to the premiere of the Spike Lee-directed film — in which he co-stars opposite Denzel Washington — while Rihanna showed off her growing baby bump in an electric-blue dress with strategic cutouts and a scarf tie at the neck. The expectant couple posed together on the carpet under their umbrella as raindrops fell all around them, and Rocky posed elsewhere on the carpet cradling Rihanna’s belly with his chin resting on her shoulder.


It was the second time this month that fans have gotten to see the couple at a red-carpet event, following Rihanna’s baby-bump reveal at the Met Gala in New York City on May 5 when fans learned the couple is expecting baby No. 3. Rocky talked to reporters on the Met Gala carpet and celebrated letting their big news out into the world. “It feels amazing, you know?” he said in an Associated Press video. “We were tired of holding that, and it was time to show the people what we was cooking up. I’m glad everybody’s happy for us, because we’re definitely happy.”

Sometimes, it takes a fresh perspective or a new design technique to ignite creativity. Exploring diverse design sources can be that pivotal nudge that pushes your boundaries and expands your creative horizons. Among the most enriching of these are web design blogs.

While these platforms curate and share remarkable designs from across the web, they’re more than just collections and galleries. They also offer news, case studies, tutorials, and valuable articles packed with design tips and tricks.

Check out our list of blogs, bookmark those that resonate with you, and revisit them whenever you need a burst of creative inspiration for your next web design project.

Why should you follow blogs about web design?

Blogs are rich sources of web design inspiration. Just one visit can spark new ideas, give you nifty tools and techniques to experiment with. However, we’re not focusing on the visual design principles these blogs showcase. Instead, our spotlight shines on the invaluable content and resources they provide. Design inspiration isn’t the only reason to visit these sites. They can also help you:

• Keep up with the design world. Blogs curate content from many designers, each bringing unique perspectives and approaches. They offer deep dives into current design trends, reviews of new products, and insights about the latest user experience (UX) and user interface (UI) design research.‍
• Learn from other designers. Discover solutions by watching other designers tackle design challenges. Unlike design galleries, which only showcase final products, blogs often detail the process behind their designs. This behind-the-scenes look offers more profound insights and practical techniques to apply to your projects. Many blogs also include free tutorials, breaking down designs into clear steps and copyable code for your site.‍
• Find valuable resources. Some blogs offer free or discounted design resources, plugins, and other assets. These curated lists can introduce new tools and techniques for designers to improve and streamline their workflow. ‍
• Join a design community. Many blogs provide platforms and forums to showcase your projects, give others feedback on their designs, and build meaningful connections with fellow designers. These communities are invaluable for freelancers, who often work alone.
