I run a couple of blogs and our company website on Wordpress and haven't had to do any CSS (or other) programming. And, the odds are pretty good that you can find a free theme that will do what you want. In fact, the default theme these days is pretty nice.
If you don't want to install your own software, you can get a free wordpress blog at wordpress.com.
