My New 2015-2016 Planner

I think it's safe to say that anyone who knows me well knows that I'm a planning freak!  At least I self-proclaim that I'm a freak about planning.  I have the basic planner from Staples for work, but I always like to have a more colorful and well laid-out planner for personal use.  After two years of Erin Condren planners, I decided to try something new and see what other options were out there.  After much research and back-and-forth, I chose the Emily Ley Simplified Planner.




I will admit, I was a bit skeptical when I first received it and started comparing it to my Erin Condren planner.  I've laid out the pros and cons below as an easy reference for anyone who is comparing these two planners for their own personal use.

After a couple weeks, the Emily Ley planner is turning out to be perfect for my personal use!  The monthly layouts and separate weekly layouts are just what fits my needs.  The classic gold rings and colorful tabs for each month are a nice touch as well.
