At the moment I am hugely into journaling, I have various diaries and planners on the go and love emptying my thoughts out onto paper each evening. One of my favourite journals happened to be a monthly planner in which you use to channel a little more happiness and productivity into your life, on the first of each month I would sit down, light a candle, state what I am grateful for and write about various areas of my life I would aim to improve in the coming weeks - it was wonderfully cathartic...well until I left my inner most thoughts on a train returning home from London. Why am I like this" No-one really knows, I'm clumsy, awkward and entirely forgetful but on the plus side I always have a spare pair of socks and gum, so really who is the real winner here"
As fate would have it, I returned home from such testing journey to be greeted with a beautiful parcel from Bobbi Brown and inside, alongside a glorious new pot of Bobbi Brown Pretty Powerful Pot Rouge, there was a limited edition Bobbi Brown The Happiness Planner; a bespoke #PrettyPowerful 100 Day Planner to encourage female empowerment (£20 available from Bobbi Brown studios). Fate I tell you and an accumulation of two of my favourite things to hoard: make-up and stationery.

The Bobbi Brown The Happiness Planner is perfect for this time of the year when it may feel like all those goals and plans you made in early January have all but fallen to the wayside, this nifty and uplifting diary of sorts...
