If you're looking to buy a new car and the dealership is run down then no matter what cars are inside you're going to have doubts as to how good they are.

Blogs are basically sales tools as far as I'm concerned, and act like doorway pages. Anything flashy and it detracts from the content. Too default template and there's no surfer trust right off the bat.
There's a happy medium. All I'm saying is I wouldn't be too hung up on how pretty your blog / site is if you're a webmaster touting someone else's wares.
