Smythson of Bond Street

I'm not here tomorrow (off to a BBQ party... yep, in this weather...) so thought I'd post today about something I've been lusting after. Not for any particular reason, more that it just came into my mind today.

I want (when I'm working) a Smythson planner diary thingy. I know they're super expensive, but it'd last forever, right? And they look really good. I need a diary anyway when I'm working. Best start saving now. I'd accept Hermes instead, I discovered that they do diaries today too!
The Bond Street Organiser - notice I've gone for refillable diaries, if I'm spending that much on something, it had better last me years dammit! A bargain (for Smythson) at £305


The larger (and sadly more convenient) Dukes Organiser, at £370. I'd feel like such a pro walking into the office with this beast!!


As noticed by fashion editors buying "The Nancy", Smythson do handbags too. I personally prefer this to the Nancy. The Maze bag (from £775, in numerous colours).



And lastly, if I felt a bit frivolous but wanted something at least affordable, I could buy one of their note books, this one is £28. I'd probably just buy a Moleskine though (and get it off ebay, where they're a fair bit cheaper).
