New Logo and an Award

As part of my mentoring programme, I had to seriously look what Miss Polly the brand means in order to get the look of the logo and branding just right. This is what my designer and myself came up with


and the small banner at the top is ideal for my website. However, the logo is getting some really mixed reactions. ALL opinions are valid, all have been said with the best of intentions and all have certainly been what I've been thinking as my brain swithers between the new logo and the previous one - 

I'd be thrilled if you could take some time to tell me which logo you prefer.

Oh, and I won an award for my Intensive Hand Treatment and this was under my original branding - do I really want to changing things so drastically now???




Please help, my tiny brain is hurting with all this thinking :)

Congratulations on the award!!!

I like the new logo.
I think it has a stronger identity than the old one. It ties in with the soap stamp too.

Congratulations on the award. I like the new logo but have to say the more I stare at it the more the neat freak in me wishes that "miss" was in alignment & smaller gaps between the letters

I think that they are both very nice, but I think I like the second one the best.

I know logo branding is difficult. We just came up with a new logo not long ago.

Love the logo on the heading of the blog but the individual one with the leaf behind the ends of the first two lines is a bit distracting. The leaf could be a lighter or just moved more to the right away from the words like the top one. It looks lovely though.

PS Congrats on your new award.

Hi
Both the logo's look really good, but i prefer the old one better. I like the swirled lettering and it gives a really feminine, vintage, floral sense...hope that makes sense :)

Thank you everyone and for all your congrats on the award, I am thrilled about it so will need to make sure I don;t waste the opportunity it can provide.

there are some pro new logs and pro old logo. I have made a minor tweak and the new logo is here to stay. I think it has a stronger identity than the previous one and I needed a change of direction. Thank you everyone who took the time to comment, it means a lot xxx
