How I stay organized: My Lilly Pulitzer Agenda!

Hey there beauties! A few years ago, I made a New Year's resolution to "organize my life". This task can definitely seem daunting, but it has been one of the few resolutions I've managed to keep - for that year and beyond!

If you're like me, you love colors, patterns, and anything girly :) When I first decided to get an agenda, it didn't take me long to discover Lilly Pulitzer's line of cute, printed school supplies. I've been a huge Lilly Pulitzer fan my entire life (my mom used to dress my sister and I in matching Lilly dresses growing up!), so I went ahead and bought one of their "Small Agendas". 

The agenda I'm showing below is the one I bought for the 2012-2013 school year. It's in the print "Lilly's Pink Skip on It", which is one of my favorites that is available now (I love this print so much I also have a matching coffee travel mug in it). The size is 4-3/8" x 6-5/8", so it's fits perfectly into a handbag, purse, or backpack. They also have larger sizes, but I feel the small size is the most convenient for my life.


The agenda is so practical for its small size. Each month starts with a full month overview with important holidays, and then the following pages show breakdowns for each week of the month. Each date has 6 empty lines where you can write notes, appointments, or to-do lists. But my favorite part is that each month is printed with a different theme with cute sayings, pictures, and colors! I always get compliments from my friends about how cute my agenda is!  

The first few pages of the agenda has stickers you can use to decorate throughout the year, "Reasons for a Party" (a list of holidays), spaces to write contact numbers and addresses, as well as a few pages for notes. I use these note pages to write important to-do lists before vacations, inspirational quotes, as well as my summer and semester bucket lists! 

As a hyper-organized person, I color-code my agenda. I got a set of super-cheap and cute colored pens from Office Depot, and I assigned each color to a category. 


                    
           

Overall, I love my agenda so much. I repurchase a new agenda from Lilly Pulitzer every year and it helps me stay so organized! For only $16, it's definitely worth it. It's available online from their website or select stores listed on their website. Stay beauteous! :) xoxo
