I am working on a logo for a Mommy & Me boutique. Please give me your thoughts. Is the name readable? Maybe the tag should be smaller?

Thanks! :)

Minor adjustments: I lowered the O, made the tag smaller and tightened up the kerning on Children's Resale Boutique. Better?

Without knowing the brief or the client's likes....I like it. Nice work!

not bad! The second looks a bit tighter indeed.

You should show one with the O with same size as the other letters. The string on the label seem to be very thin. Might disappear when you lower the size of this logo. And maybe round of the edge of the string inside the label hole. Or make it looks like there is a knot in it.

For the rest the overall looks is good. However just wondering if people would read it correct. Try to find someone close who isn't a designer and ask what is says without saying it first.

I like Chung's suggestions. Especially making the O the same size as the other letters.

I was thinking pretty much the same thing...on a letterhead that line would dissapear

could you do an option with the "me" below the "mommy"? maybe have another tag for the remaining text

look great though I really like the idea of the tag :)

I like the softer look and the positioning of the ampersand within the "O" (looks like an unborn baby a bit:) and this could be very suggestive to future moms!

Thanks everyone -- I will post a new picture when I get a chance to update the logo.

I didn't think you needed to change anything, the whole concept was great and nothing seemed out of place or weird.

I'm interested to see if your update looks noticably better.

Hi,

Try what Winter wrote earlier....

I can read "Mommy & Me" and "Me & Mommy". Now, if you put the label below there's only one way to read. And you still have enought space for the punch line.

Color need some improvement within the baby pastel color scheme realm.

Paulo
thanks

That's an adorable logo. Great job with the colors. I wonder tho, do pastels reproduce well? I used to work at a newspaper and pastels would seem to washout when printed on newsprint. Maybe slightly darken the green and the colors within the ampersand? Just in case the company wishes to run a color ad in their local newpaper. Whatchathink?

. . . oh, and at first glance, I read "Me and Mommy" before I read your description.

Great logo! Love the concept of it and colors work great for the type of business it is. :)
Personally, I think it works well how it is set up and reading it as Mommy and Me since the word Mommy has the "&" in it I feel it is first to read and with it being further to the left.

Nice job... I like the style but something isn't sitting quite right and I can't tell what it is... I think it might be the colors... There's no contrast or maybe it's there but not emphasizing the right parts... I can't seem to pull my eyes away from "me" and "childrens resale boutique". I think the hierarchy should be: Mommy, me & tagline. Maybe it's just my eyes.
