Last year, I saw pictures floating around of this beauty from the Australian brand, Forever New. I instantly fell in love and tried, unsuccessfully to track her down. So this year when they launched- I was ready! Through a Facebook group I was able to purchase the two I wanted. I thought I would give a little review of each. Sorry for the lighting, it's a cloudy day here in Chicago.
First up is the Matilda, personal size in the Peony print. It's a beautiful pastel print, completely
different from last year's bright floral. It's priced at $34.99 AUA which comes out to around $25 USD. I love that it includes an address book because, HOW many times have I lost a phone and lost all my contacts?? WAY too many times too count! I'm making more of an effort to write them all down now!
Next is the Sophie, A5 size in Pearlised Blush...SO pretty!! It's kind of a taupey gray color. This one retails for $39.99 AUA ($29 USD). At first glance I thought it had a silver underlay but when I looked closer, it's actually a silver glitter that is so sparkly and adds a lot of dimension!
Overall, the quality is something comparable to what you would find at Forever 21 or H&M. The paper is thinner so if you're a stamper, the ink will probably show through! You've been warned...BUT if you're a die hard Planner Girl like me- then you'll get them as special collectible pieces.
Also, if you're wondering about the Peony dashboard and To Do list- they're from Biba Plans! I am NOT usually one to buy printable inserts. I just haven't had much luck with them- I can't cut them straight, or the print quality isn't the best...sigh... but when I saw these I couldn't resist! And I'm so glad I tried them. Roberta does such a great job! Go check her out on IG and tell her I sent you ;)
Happy planning, ladies! Have an awesome weekend!
xoxo
