Hello, hello friends! Welcome to Wanderful Wednesday!
I’m finally returning to Santiago today after one hell of a trip! Actually two trips! I’m sorry for being so MIA the past month… but I’mmmmm back!
I have so many things to tell you and fill you in on, but right now I’m in my warm fluffy bed in a temporary coma.
When I eventually wake up from what I’m hoping will be a mini-hibernation, I promise I’ll get right to catching up with all of your lovely, wanderful posts!
But, in the meantime, I’m hoping you can help me out!
I’ve been in the process of some Lauren on Location rebranding with the help of my friend Estrella.
Estrella is starting a new online business called Stardust Creatives, where she will be creating stimulating and appealing visual content for brands such as social media graphics, PDF workbooks, media kits, logos and other branded materials.
Be sure to check her out! Her stuff is amazing. Just look at the inspirational mood board she created for my brand.
Together we will be collaborating to design a new Lauren on Location logo, color scheme, branded media kit, Pinterest templates and some more fun goodies! Right now, it’s all a work in progress!
And so this brings me today… I’m kindly begging asking for your help in choosing a new logo! 😀
Here’s what I have so far:
What you see above are the bare bone options for my new logo. The design is still in progress and Estrella and I will be putting on the final touches, like adding colors, later! For now, I was just hoping to get your input, before we move along. And because frankly I’ve been looking at them for too long, and they’re all starting to look the same.
All suggestions, recommendations and advice are welcome! If you like one, but think it would look better with a little tweaking, please put other and tell me what you would change, or feel free to describe in a comment below. If you really just don’t like any of them, please be honest!
Thanks for your help today! Your opinion is so important to me! 😀
Oh yeah, and if you’re interested in contacting Estrella about her online branding services, you can do so at estrella@stardustcreatives.com.
Disclaimer: Estrella at Stardust Creatives is providing her services to me free of charge in order to build her portfolio and help get the word out about her new business. As always though all opinions expressed are my own. I would only recommend something that I truly felt benefited my readers!

How exciting! Good luck with the rebrand, and to be honest the logos are all good so I’m not surprised you’re having trouble picking one! Enjoy your post trip napping, looking forward to hearing all about what you got up to when you awake!
Thanks so much Rachel! Hope I can gain the energy to write all about it soon 😀
It took me a minute to understand that the map pointer in the Design 1 options was the ‘o’ in on location. I think the options in 2 and 3 are a bit more clear. Good luck finalizing all your new design stuff!
I agree. I like the idea of it…but it takes the readers focus away from the name which is where you want it.
Thanks so much for the input Ava! I can completely see what you’re saying and this has actually pulled me away from Design 1! I asked a few friends and they so agree with you! It’s a good idea, but can be a little more difficult to figure out. Thanks again! 😀
I’m going for Design 1 because of how it uses the pin as an ‘O’! #WanderfulWednesday
Thanks so much! That one was Estrella’s idea! I really liked it as well 😀
design 3c 🙂
Thanks Tanja!
I’m looking forward to hearing more about your recent trip. Just found your blog through Wanderful Wednesdays 🙂
Thanks Elizabeth! So excited to have you here at #wanderfulwednesdays! 😀
I know that I’m exhausted after just a weekend of traveling, so I can’t imagine how exhausted you are after a month! I hope that you get to rest up soon! And all of those designs are so pretty, and hopefully we pick one that you love!
Thanks Ashley! Been loving seeing everyone’s opinions! 😀
Voted! I think the font combos of 1B / 2B / 3C compliment each other the best but I also like the bold font pairing of 3B.
Good luck choosing!
Thanks so much Lindsay! 😀
Yay for rebranding! Hope you are able to figure out the perfect design for your blog! 🙂
Thanks Mandy!
Can’t wait to hear all about your trip! And see the rebranded site! Estrella did such an amazing job with my own media kit so I know the new site is gonna be awesome!!
Oooo have to go check out the media kit! I’m so excited to see what she comes up with 😀
You’re back, woohoo!! Can’t wait to catch up! 🙂 Voted 😉
Can’t wait to see ya Marcella! 😀
I’m so excited to watch your rebrand unfold! I voted for my fav (2B) but I love that it showed us the results because my next favourites (3C and B1) are tied! I think people love that one font! Can’t wait to see it with colours.
Thanks so much for putting in your opinion Lauren! I love seeing all of the results and have been super surprised by the responses! 😀
2B all the way!! Can’t wait to see how it turns out! rebranding is like giving your self an online make over! man it feels oh so good! 🙂
Right! Gotta love it! Time for a change!
Cool! I voted for my favorite! My site need a total rebrand too. I have been wanting to change the look for a long time.
I’m not sure if I’m going to take on the whole look right now, but going to start making some small brand changes. New is always fun! 😀
So fun, I like 3C ? but they all are cute. Yay for Estrella!
Thanks so much Courtney! 😀
Welcome home! Your logo designs are all wonderful–hard choice!
Thanks so much Pat!! 😀
Oooh exciting! I love the little compass marker as the O in on, but I think my favourite font is the one in 2C/3B. Looking forward to seeing the finished product!
Thanks for the input Jessi! 😀
Welcome back and Enjoy designing your new logo! 🙂
Thanks so much Ahila! 😀
I like Design 1, A. The slightly off-kilter signature of your name gives it an adventurous feel! That probably sounds silly, but such is the nature of choosing between different fonts :))
You know I really like that one too! I thought it was fun, playful and adventurous, which is exactly what I’m going for 😀 Glad you felt that way too!
I’m loving the new logo options! Design 3 is definitely my favorite. Also, this is my first time participating in your linkup! Yaaay!
Can’t wait to hear about your most recent adventures 🙂
Yay so happy to have you here! 😀 I’ll be catching up on my adventures soon! So backed up :X And thanks for the input about the design 😀
Great options. I voted for 3B, but my second choice is 2B, which is most popular as of today.
Thanks so much for your vote 😀
