My Notebooks

Hi, I'm Fjóla and I'm a notebook-aholic.

I love notebooks and I don't buy a notebook when I

need one, I buy one when I see one really cute and then

I'll decide what to do with it. Yeah, it's true. 

So for this post I thought it would be fun if I would show

you my notebooks that I use the most and what I use them for.

This notebook is my blogger notebook. I write down ideas for a blog post

and how many visitors I get on my blog and so on. It's really handy

to have a notebook for your blog because when you have no idea what

to write about you can just look for an idea in your notebook. 

I got this notebook from Sostrene Grene.

Okay, this is my seccond blogger notebook. Yes, I have two blogger

notebooks. This one is just a lot smaller so it's handier to carry around 

in your bag. I use this one for writing down ideas. I also got

this notebook from Sostrene Grene, if you have a store near

you, you should definitely check out their notebooks. They have

some really cute ones.

This is my planner, which I use everyday. It helps me keep

track on all my activites and important things, like tests and 

doctors apointments, birthdays and more.

 The planner shows every week by its self so you'll

always know what's happening every week. I got this planner from HEMA

in Netherlands (I love the stationary there!)

The last notebook I have is my to-do list book. I write down

all kinds of lists, like what I want to read, grocery list, what 

I have to do that day and so on. It's so handy to have because you

are much more likely to do things if you make a list. 

This notebook is also from Sostrene Grene (surprise, surprise!)

That's it for this post, hope you liked it!

School Essentials

 School has started again after a long winter break.

I wanted to show you some school essentials, that might

come in handy. For me, this is quite a lot of stuff and I don't take

everything to school with me, but you might get some ideas.

So here they are!

I recently bought this purple travel mug and I have used it everyday. I love a warm 

cup of tea on cold winter mornings. It's from Bodum and it keeps my tea hot for at least 3 hours.

Don't keep it in your bag though, it might spill.

Mints are a must for me. I love the intense mint tic tacs, makes your breath

so fresh.

Here are my beauty and skin musts. Hand sanitizers are probably something

that you already have in your schoolbag. Mine is strawberry from the Body Shop and it

smells soooo good. If I had to choose one makeup product to take with me to school

I would pick a concealer for my dark under eye circles. I always get dark circles, no matter

how much I sleep. My favorite concealer is the wake me up concealer from Rimmel. It covers

my dark circles and it doesn't dry out my skin. I have done a little review of the Burt's bees

Lip balm and if you read it or tried the lip balm, you'll know how great it is. It's super moisturizing

and it smells like peppermint! Maybe it's just me, but I always need to have a nail file with me,

just in case if my nail splits, I hate when that happens! During winters I always carry a hand cream

because my hands tend to get pretty dry during winters. My favorite is from L'occitane and it works wonders.

I often wear my hair down, but sometimes my hair gets in the way and it can be

very annoying. I always have a hair elastic and bobby pins in my bag. I love scrunchies, because they

don't give you a headache and they are also so cute! I bought mine from Six.

I use my Ipad mini everyday in school. I use it to do projects and it's so much easier

than bringing a heavy laptop. I also use my planner everyday. I bought it in Amsterdam 

and I use it to plan my day, write down my homework and other important stuff. I don't

know what I would do if I didn't have my planner!

That's it for my school essentials, hope you enjoyed it!
