Christmas comes early with Smythson

Having a bad memory is a curse. At 26 I'm dismayed to find that I regularly find myself in a room wondering what on earth I came in for. Needless to say, I'm the queen of to-do lists. If I don't write things down I'm sure to forget them. I tried electronic organisers but there's some thing about writing on paper that's still so pleasurable and when you're writing on paper bound in butter-soft leather, the experience just gets better. This year I decided to buy myself a little Christmas present and ordered a 2010 diary from Smythson. The Erdem girl collections have been making the blog rounds but I'm a traditional girl at heart and the staple ranges appeal more to me. Any of these beauties would make a wonderful stocking filler (hint, hint).
