The Perfect Diary!

As my obsession with paper goods doesn’t end with holiday cards, I’ve begun my search for the perfect diary. Nothing makes me feel more on top of things than a morning glance at my well-planned day. I know, I know, I have electronic calendar on my iPhone and my laptop. But something about a candy-coloured, leather-bound book can really make my day every time I look at it.

I’ve gone through quite a few diaries, and I’m getting a pretty good idea of what to look for.

For the upcoming year, I was looking at three different diaries:

Kate Spade Diary Cover

Kate Spade Diary

Kate Spade – While the illustrations are gorgeous, I’ve had a diaries with spiral binders before, and they didn’t really work for me. They were a bit too large for my bag, and the pages often fell out.

Smythson Diary

Smythson – The leather is beautiful, and of course, monogramming is always a plus for me, but this diary was out of my price range.

Debrett's Diary

Debrett’s – I was attracted to the leather cover, and all the goodies included: A shopping directory, travel info and guides to fitness, music, and websites. I ordered it two weeks ago, and it arrived today (all the way from London!). It turned out to be even better than I expected.

Etiquette Cover

I also bought the Debrett’s Etiquette for Girls, and I’m looking forward to flipping through it tonight.

Holiday Greetings

I have always had a bit of an obsession with personalised stationary, and holiday greeting cards are no exception.
Each year I try to get them out early or at least on time, but this doesn’t always go as planned. In my search for cards every year, I’ve come across a few gems. My favourites would have to be:

-Mr. Boddington’s Studio

New Year

Sorry for the lack of posts. The past few months have been a blur.
I was totally unprepared for all the work to come my way… It’s been fantastic, and now that I’ve got my systems in place and some desperately needed help I’m back on track.
The New Year will be filled with lots of exciting things for DBI. One project is the DB Home range and on-line store. Soon to be completed and up and running. Please join our newsletter, twitter or subscribe to our blog for all the details.
