For those who have read my previous posts you are well aware I have so much love for my personal purple Malden. I’ve been using this as my main planner now since August, and personal size for over a year.
However I was feeling the need to change it up, go bigger. I may not have a busy life but as I didn’t want to crowd my pages I wouldn’t note a lot of things. The a5 allows me to write down everything I want to write down without feeling page clutter.
I decided to use my a5 pink Carpe Diem. I do have the new Ballerina Carpe Diem on pre-order and will swap to that in August if I am still happy using the A5 size.
I’m quite happy with this decision as I adore the Carpe inserts and they were just sat unused. I also don’t feel the need to decorate as much with these are they are pretty enough without additional decor.
I have added more sections than the Carpe originally comes with buy adding tabs along the top which then just leaves the side tabs for months.
The sections I have currently are:
* Account and Reference Numbers
* Incomings and Outgoings
* Contacts
* Notes
* To-Do
* Expenses
* April – December
I then have 2 plastic zipped wallets and a cardboard folder wallet.
Please find pictures of my current set up below.

Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed a look around my planner:)

Photo 4 shows your address…..some “bloggers” try and hide this for security purposes. I guess you’re not too worried it. Maybe, a re-do with a post-it over the address, or just a plain piece of paper in the pocket instead would be better?
