For years I’ve wanted a don’t-mess-with-me organiser and now, finally, there are justifiable reasons for me to nab myself one of these straight talking Filofax bad-boys. For a start, I’m an adult and that means if I’m to be taken seriously, I need a serious prop.
It’s true, at £50 they’re the epitome of indulgence but every time you touch it, you’ll want to sort your life out that little bit more. When I lay eyes on my current diary, I want to throw it in the bin. It’s not leather – it’s flowery. It’s Paperchase.
Rather pointlessly, I’ve been using said diary [which is so sharp it cuts my fingers to shreds every time I put my hands in my bag] retrospectively, jotting in events and appointments that have already been and gone, rating them with smilies or a to the point ‘crap’ for future reference. What a silly way to use a diary. I’ve lost respect for my Paperchase fatty. I’d never put a smilie in my Filofax.
So, if you’ve become disenchanted with the diaries at Paperchase and W H Smith [Yes, I know, but some people still buy from there] then take a leap of faith. Apparently they last years and you won’t have to wear plasters to use them.

Love it!! I bought one last year, however…being an avid WHSmith diary girl, filofax was a big step and a grown up one at that. However…its too big for me to heave round in my suitcase of a satchel so sits very quietly on my dresser. Think it may be a paperchase purchase for me this January!

I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own blog and was curious what all is needed to get setup? I’m assuming having a blog like yours
would cost a pretty penny? I’m not very internet savvy so I’m not 100% sure. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks
