The wants

I have a very bad case of the wants this week.  Usually some online window shopping satisfies the longing but this time it has made it worse!  I was talking to another blogger about her mini filofax and she told me she used to use a smaller binder along side her A5 and that set the wheels in motion.  I know you can get filofaxes with the full width pocket on the exterior for your notes and a zipped compartment for your coins to use as a purse or wallet and I really like that idea.  I have been looking online at the pocket Chameleon and mini Finsbury.

Chameleon in raspberry
Finsbury in yellow
Finsbury in blue

 Aren't they beautiful? I was doing a fantasy basket on the Filofax UK site but obviously I didn't check out and a couple of hours later I received an email from them offering me a discount code for 20% off my next order..... oh the temptation! I think the blue one is my favourite out of the three and it is the one that is still sitting in my cart whispering my name.  But there it will stay, for a while at least.  I know I don't need it but oh my I want it!

    I like the mustard or the blue. My dodo pad came today but I've not had the chance for a proper play. Ordering those dividers once I decide what I want them to say lol xo

    Yay I always enjoy filling out a new dodo pad!
    It took me a little while to decide on the labels for my dividers, you've got to have a blog one ;)

    I recently bought my first Filofax the personal blue Finsbury off of Amazon (half price). I'm so excited, I cant wait for the post man to knock on my door!

      I'd be stalking my postman until it arrived if I was you! I looked at the finsburys last time I was in WH Smiths and the leather is so soft, it's gorgeous especially in that shade of blue. I have to admit I've just spent nearly an hour on Amazon looking at the filofaxs, more temptation!

    I have the blue Finsbury and LOVE it! I'm usually quite fickle about my planners and change the binders out regularly because I'm not quite happy with the one I have. I got the blue Finsbury about 6 months ago and haven't changed yet and don't plan on changing anytime soon!

      Hi Tammy, I am so pleased that you have found your perfect planner! I think I am a bit in love with the blue Finsbury and I don't even own one!

      Thank you Lady_Filo! I have had a look and it is a gorgeous shade of green but I have decided that the mini is probably too small for me to get along with. I measured it out onto some paper and saw how tiny it is which is really cute but a bit impractical for me. I have bookmarked your blog though!
