The Perfect Pen for Collegiettes

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of BIC 4 Color. All opinions are 100% mine.

Call me retro, but I love putting a pen to paper. Whether it’s my to-do lists, calendar, or some doodling – I’m into it. The other thing I really like to do: color-coding. The pen that helps me do all of this is the classic BIC® 4-Color™. The pen – which I’m sure you’re familiar with (who isn’t?!) is my go-to. You’ve got green, blue, red and black ink. Perfect for correcting your papers, making lists, and best of all: doodling (just don’t tell any professors that).

With the 4 Inseparable Colors in 1 Pen, I can best express myself and best organize my thoughts in an aesthetically pleasing way. With the 4 different colors, I also get to express myself in different ways (because really, the kind of person who writes with a blue pen is very different than one who writes with a black pen) or even express my mood (I’m angry! I want to write in red!).

While I definitely prefer a black color pen — professional and clean — I do find myself going for red often, as it’s the ultimate corrector and perfect for editing a paper. It makes me feel like I can be harder on myself when I correct with a red pen. As long as it’s me putting the red on my papers, and not a professor, I’m ok.

The BIC® 4-Color™ is a necessity for me – and I bet if you started using it you’d be hooked too. You can get the pen in lots of places – but you can find it online at Amazon and Staples.

Plus, follow BIC® on Twitter and Facebook where you can get more info on the pen, plus details on my other favorite pen, the BIC® 4-Color™ fashion pen, featuring purple, turquoise, lime green and pink! Also on their socials, you can get funny content like in the videos below – check them out to see what goes on inside your pen when you’re clicking away!
