Select Your Planner

With our selection of planners we have something for everyone—whether you need a large, Monarch-sized planner with loads of room for notes, doodles, and appointments, or something you can slip into your purse and have on hand whenever your schedule changes.

You may want a planner that is crisp in design and organized for business-like precision—something like our Original, Monticello, Compass or Signature planners. You might prefer a planner with more graphic elements and a soothing or playful feel—something like RetroPop, Textures, Sweet Life, Real Life Adventures, Watercolor, or Wanderlust. And there are those who need a little of both elements—something like 7 Habits, Serenity, Seasons, or Leadership.

You may be looking for something even more creative—a place to express your own individuality with journaling cards, photos, and embellishments. You’ll find some fun options with our Dot Grid Daily Planner, FC Studio, La Vie En Rose, and our latest addition, Planner Love Weekly Planner—complete with designer dividers, stickers, notebooks, and embellishments.

Take a look at our selection of planners and see what we have to offer. Who knows? You may decide to try something new this year. You may even find a planner that will help someone you love rediscover the joy of a well-planned life.

Gift Ideas

A planner can be a great gift—a way to help friends and family find a few more precious minutes each day. Or perhaps you know someone who could use a new binder. Our selection of binders has never been as beautifully diverse—from our soothing Arctic Blue or Blush Pink Bella Binders, to the rugged deep brown of our soft-oiled leather Breckenridge Binders. In between those extremes, you’ll find the bold colors of our Caroline Collection or the plush, detail in our smooth, Antique Glass Leather Binder. And that doesn’t begin to address the creative beauty you’ll find in our Planner Love Binder collection, or the striking leatherwork in our Impresso Leather Strap Binders.

If the people you have in mind aren’t looking for planners or binders, they’ll be impressed with an Athens Tri-Fold Wallet, or a Breckenridge Laptop Bag. The striking vegan leather beauty of the Keely Satchel or Malone handbag might be the perfect choice for the environmentally conscious friend on your list. Or impress your loved one with a Valeria Satchel crafted from 100% genuine leather with a contrasting interior lining.
