On: Taking a second look at free fonts

I paired Playfair with Lato for my personal site. I'm happy with the results, particularly given that my web site is pretty much just unadorned text.

It looks kind of cluttered, like you're using too many fonts. I would limit where you use the serifed font to mainly the headline.

Like other users said, it looks a bit cluttered. I think it's because Lato has very narrow lines. My (amateurish) suggestion is either a typeface with thicker lines or a taller typeface.

Looks messy to me. Try increasing the line height.
