Cute Planners to Keep You Organized

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Drexel chapter.

Here at Drexel fall term has officially started, which inevitably means that the stress of class or co-op has probably already kicked in. You’ve heard it a thousand times before, but investing in a planner is a great way to keep track of your months, days, and even hours! Instead of wagging a finger in your face to start penciling things in, we’ve decided to round up some of the cutest planners for you all in one place (links included, so you really have no excuse!). Similar to how a new gym outfit motivates you to workout, a pretty planner can help inspire you to get your life together.

 

Day Designer Weekly/Monthly Planner (Target $5.39)

If you’re new to planners, you’re probably unfamiliar with just how expensive they can be. This planner offers a monthly calendar as well as a weekly breakdown with an adorable floral cover for just $5. You can’t beat that price! The monthly view is good for bigger events. For instance, you can indicate a friend’s birthday or mark down vacation dates. The weekly breakdown is better for the nitty gritty like what classes you have or what homework is due on what day. More expensive planners even offer an hourly breakdown for those of you who are willing to commit specific time to important tasks.

 

Bohemia 2017 Weekly Planner (Calendars.com $24)

Intermediate level planners may be more willing to throw some cash toward a quality agenda. This hardcover weekly planner by PAPAYA! Planners offers gorgeous designs, golden monthly pages, month views, year views, week views, and notes pages. Definitely worth the few extra bucks!

 

Ban.do 17 Month Medium Agenda (bando.com $28)

In addition to all the things the other two planners have, this one also gives you STICKERS. We may be college students, but everyone knows that stickers are as good as candy in college (laptop swag!). This awesome ban.do agenda has notes pages, laminated tabs, a pocket, secret code, a coloring page, and tons of fun, graphic art.

 

Kate Spade Gold Dots Agenda (Kate Spade $40)

If you’re someone who loves name brands, you need this classic Kate Spade agenda. Flaunting the signature polka dots, everyone will know that you plan in style. This 17-month agenda comes complete with monthly and weekly pages, notes pages, and laminated dividers. A bit of a splurge, but worth it if you ask us!

 

Erin Condren Custom LifePlanner (Erin Condren $55)

For expert level planners, you are probably well aware of the holy grail of agendas – the Erin Condren LifePlanner. If you are unfamiliar with the brand, the site allows you to personalize your very own agenda with cover art, coil color, your name on the cover, cover photos, page layout and orientation, color theme, and more! It may sound like a lot of money, but splurging on a planner may be exactly what you need to get organized.

 

There are endless options for planners from the plain to the personalized. Hopefully this list has inspired you to invest in an agenda and get organized for a great academic year ahead. Happy planning, collegiettes!
