Do you guys get excited to buy a new agenda every year? I do. Oh my gosh- I love paper planners! Sometimes I feel like making lists and plans is actually my favorite thing in all the world.
Agendas great gifts too. I snatched up that first design for Emma the moment I saw it. Which is your favorite? Do you have a favorite agenda? Do you love it for function or design, or both? xo. Elsie

I’ve been looking for a cute agenda forever! I don’t think it’s too much to ask for both a cute and functional design haha. Thanks for all the awesome suggestions!
I decided to make my own this year. http://simplestylespirit.blogspot.com/
I am totally in love with our HEMA organizer fillings. I have an organizer (a metallic pink one) and I love the fillings of HEMA, because they are nice, creative and happy. Even better: They have extras in it so you can showcase pictures in your organizer which makes it even more personal.
I have switched back to a real agenda once, but I know that my organizer is the right one for me.
Yesterday I saw some of them but I haven’t found yet the best for 2014.

I love getting a new planner each year!! This year I am so excited to start using my planner from http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/adamjk/2014-unsolicited-advice-weekly-planner-and-journal it’s the cutest and has inspirational advice on almost every page!! Some of the advice is exactly what I’m looking for, for example, “eat a pint of ice cream in bed”!
These are great! I am so hoping my hint dropping will help make one of these end up in my stocking! 🙂

I’ve been using my cell phone as a planner, but I must admit that I miss having a planner. It keeps me organized, and was so necessary when I was a grad student.

planner #2! can never have too many notebooks really…I actually already own #5 (or a nearly identical planner) – it’s treated me well this year 🙂
I bought my sister an Erin Condren Life Planner. They are seriously seriously amazing! It’s now on my wishlist too!
I’m obsessed with Erin Condren planners, but I love that second planner’s cover!
I love date books so much! It makes me happy to write things down and then in turn mark them done!
I love planners!! And these ones are soooo cute!

Only last week did some of my co-workers laugh hysterically when I mentioned that I still have a paper planner. Thank god I am not alone in this…:)
You should check out May Designs! You get to pick the design and colors. I just got mine in for 2014 and I am obsessed!
These are great! I’m looking forward to a new planner for 2014. 🙂
#4 is at the top of my Christmas list! Keeping my fingers crossed! 🙂
They are so cutee!

I am definately a pen and paper diary girl, for me finding the perfect diary it has to have enough space per day and have nice thick pages, well at least not too thin. Not sure I could order one online because I could I tell if it would feel right. Has to be pretty too of course. Those are all lovely choices.

I really do love getting a new planner each year! I’ve been consistently using the Lilly Pulitzer jumbo agendas, but am looking for alternatives just to spice things up. The gold dot Kate Spade agenda has been on my radar for quite awhile and The Day Designer looks absolutely amazing!
All of these look amazing! I got mine on my trip to London and it’s just perfect! 🙂

Plum Paper planners are my favorite! They have so many cute designs and tons of ways to customize them!
Yesssss, I love planners and so look forward to end of the year so I can began the search for a new one. I got my 2014 planner from Poppin and I love it!

I used to work at a custom paper store and I LOVED it. Ever since then I am constantly obsessed with paper products! I love planners!!
I have #2 and am in love! We had them available at sweetbluegifts.com but Kate Spade sold out of the gold dot and black/white stripe super fast! So we haven’t been able to restock! 🙁
BUT Lilly Pulitzer also has some super cute agendas that we personalize for free:

I am lost without a planner – LOVING that one from Kate Spade 🙂
These are adorable! I love the black and white stripes!
love and want them all! 😀 I love planners, a little tooooo much sometimes. No Regrets 🙂

I’m so glad I’m not the only one who gets excited about agendas! I thought I was weird or something. 🙂
I get so excited too, it’s like a treasure when I find the perfect match each year. It’s like a quest, I’m very specific and I get 2, one for work, the other to write personal stuff. But for next year I’ve also found a third agenda where you can write only a sentence and I’m going to be using it to tell my favorite part the day so that I can focus on the good rather than the bad.
My work agenda is from Gorjuss, showing a week on 2 pages. (I work week per week). (http://p0.storage.canalblog.com/08/31/482225/91864131_o.jpg)
My personal agenda is a moleskine, with a whole page for every day of the week and its cover is full of colourful butterflies. (http://www.ryman.co.uk/Catalogue/Ryman/large/global/images/main/03/0330254565.jpg)
And the “one sentence a day” agenda is the same as my diary; red with lots of inspiring quotes and pieces of advices. (http://www.teneues.com/shop-us/images/product_images/popup_images/76781_C.jpg)
I keep all my agenda since high-school and they’re filled with memories and little notes and words from friends at he time. Now they’re more a collection of my thoughts.
I adore the one you chose for Emma, it’s awesomely cool! And you’re an awesomely good sister to her! 🙂
Elsie, my best friend and I have been following you since our scrapbook days. She texted me this morning to tell me you featured the Day Designer! Thank you so much for making two girls’ day today! Much thanks!
Ohhh, definitely one of my favourite things about the new year – getting a new organiser! Im trying to find one for to do lists rather than events so much this year though!
Umm…I most definitely purchase a new paper planner at the end of every semester. They are my secret addiction. Calendars in general, too.
I’ve been thinking about purchasing Kate Spade’s “literary glasses” planner for some time now. Definitely adding it to my Christmas wish list. Or maybe I’ll just treat myself!
I so LOVE agendas!!!
So it’s not the prettiest calendar out there, pretty basic, but if you’re looking for the ultimate (flexible) organizational tool, you should check out the Uncalendar. (I think the only place you can get it is on heir website.) It’s AMAZING. I keep my work schedule, my personal schedule, and my blog schedule all neat and organization and can’t get enough of it!
I’ve been on the hunt for a new planner, the Kate Spades are fantastic!
I am also a big fan of paper planners – I didn’t have one this year and this post made me realize that was a smallish big something missing in my life – adding it to my list of new years resolutions – purchase paper planner!

These are all adorable! I love starting a fresh new planner every year. There’s something so nice about starting with a blank slate at the new year – literally! I’ve had good luck with Moleskine planners – I’ve bought too many others that fell apart when they couldn’t handle how intensely they were being loved!
I’m totally a sucker for cute agendas. Love that Day Designer agenda.
One reason this is my favourite time of year is because I get to buy a new planner! I’d definitely got something with a pop of colour like #5. Sometimes the day’s list can get daunting but a bright happy colour can make things look a bit more cheery!
Love ALL of these, but especially 1 and 2. I am so picky with my planners, though. Its the most exciting thing ever to pick one out 🙂 I especially love finding cute washi tape and then sticking it down in my planner to highlight important things!

I decided to go with the Frankie Magazine Journal this year – can’t wait to use it. I wish Dec 31 would hurry up!

Omg, me too!! I love planners! I’ve stuck to Moleskin for the past for years but maybe this year I will venture out.
Paper planners are my favorite! I agree with you about making lists and plans – it can be way more satisfying than doing the tasks themselves! My favorite planners are the San-X ones I buy at the Japanese bookstore near Bryant Park (NY). They’re the cutest!
I never thought about giving agendas as gifts, but that is a great idea! I’m going to buy some for my mother and mother-in-law!
Planners are my THING!!! All the ones you highlighted above are great. After years of searching for the PERFECT planner I created one of my own last year. Very customized with lost of bells and whistles!

If you’d like complimentary copy to review and raffle away on the blog I’d be thrilled to send you one!
Have a great weekend!
2 & 4 are my faves! I love getting a new agenda each year!

Ohh I love lists too! I got my 2014 diary last week, from Kikki K, and I’m completely infatuated with it. New year = new excuse for lists and stationary!
Really like the black and white stripe one, I too love making lists and i prefer to write things down on pen and paper rather on a laptop! Xx
Planners are one of my absolute favorite things. That and lists. I love them!
