WELCOME
This blog has been around in one form or another since 2010. It’s an amalgamation of who I was, who I am, and who I’m hoping to be. Sometimes it’s about beauty products. Other times (most of the time) it’s about planning. Occasionally there’s business stuff and even rarer board game content.
So thanks for stopping by, reading somthing long-form in a world of fast information, and hanging out with me on my slice of the internet.
Sincerely,
Kayla

A Day in the Life of My Erin Condren Life Planner
A day in the life of my Erin Condren is a simple, yet tiresome one. I tote my 18-month neutral hourly around with me like a security blanket making sure I have my head on straight when the middle of the day hits. Plus it's just gorgeous to stare at when I'm having an...
How I Organize My Personal Planner
About two months ago I finally figured out a good enough reason to get a personal planner. I've been heart-eyed emoji over them for ages, but could never quite pin down what I would do with it until recently. The addition of it to my planning routine has made things...
