Kikki K planner set up - July 2017


A quick run through of how I currently have my A5 size (large) Kikki. K planner set up.
Links to all of the shops mentioned will be tagged so you can click them and have a browse yourself!


My little guinea pig charm, which is actually from my Esty shop! AlyMarinaCraft


My pocket set up (always my favourite thing to do!)
The peeking Mikasa dashboard is from HelloPaperCat, as is the business card! The bunny business card is from Keep Drawing, Charlie, the bunny ruler was from my advent box from MyPrettySummer and the paperclip was from MyUnicornPlanner.

In the zipped pocket I just keep some icon stickers and my BeePee stickers from BeautifulPlanning.
I also have my favourite quote from Game of Thrones right at the front.


The dashboard is again, from HelloPaperCat and the rose gold poop paperclip was in a lucky bag I got from CherryBlossomInTheMarketSquare.
Also my pen is a Uniball Jetstream 0.7. It's a biro but writes like a gel pen, I love them!


My first divider is also acting as a bit of a dash area. I've got my sticky notes from BonBonsKawaii, my Jon Snow bookmark from ThePlumpPlanner and my washi holder from MyPrettySummer.


With my monthly pages I have a little bookmark I hole punched to fit, it was actually from a pack of tags from Paperchase! And the Homer Simpson bookmark was from HelloPaperCat.


Last week was decorated using a range of stickers from quite a few shops! But I will list them anyway - The Girl Boss kit was from PrettyCraftyPlanning as was the reading Evie sticker, the rest of the stickers (icons etc) were from - BeautifulPlanning, HappyCutieStudio, StickyAcorn, KelizabethPlans and ThePlumpPlanner.


This is one of the bookmarks I've made after seeing an awesome instagram post from StephaniePlans! I made two and made them quite quickly so they're not the best but they're pretty cute! I'll have to have a go at making some more!


In my 'to do' section I also have some really cute papers that my penpal Nicky sent me!


My second bookmark!


And in the back I just keep my frequently used stickers.

World of Wizardry subscription box (July 2017)


This post won't be the usual run through of items for the World of Wizardry box unfortunately!
But I thought I would still post an overview of what there was because I LOVED it!

The tshirt is adorable and feels super comfortable so I can't wait to wear it.
There was another wand and I'm really excited about putting this on my shelf as I don't have Snape's wand!
The second enamel pin.. I love these things! I'm big into collecting things like this so I can't wait to see the ones we get in the future.
I recognise the bow from a YouTube video I watched and I *think* it was in a past wearable sub box, not too sure but I remember really wanting one so I'm over the moon that this was in the box.
The Chamber of Secrets coin is very cool, it's really good quality too, quite weighty!
The glasses - look hilarious on me, I love them haha.
I'm obsessed with the niffler print, it's amazing! The way the last 3 prints have been printed I will need to buy some frames as they're not as thick as previous ones, so I'm worried about damaging them. They're currently propped up against my bookshelf so I can admire them though! 

Overall another excellent box!

Kikki. K large leather personal planner review *pic heavy*


Something new to my planner collection is the large zipped planner from Kikki. K. I was initially drawn to it because of the colour, after that I couldn't get it out of my mind so I had to get it! I'm really glad I did because I'm super happy with it!

It cost £54 plus £6 postage.

The only downside with the planner is I've found that the dots are already kind of rubbing off but I was expecting it really after all that happened with the rose gold planners last year.
It's not a big deal for me though and I have been throwing it around quite a bit since I've had it (and although the dots are rubbing off slightly) it's holding up nicely!

The paper quality is fine, it's the usual thin paper quality but I use a biro pen so and there's little to no ghosting.
I really like the colour theme with this planner. The grey and the lilac go really well together and the sticker kits I'm using kind of work well so I'm going to stick with the inserts for a while and if I don't get on with them then I can get some printables for it.
The monthly pages will be fine as I don't really decorate them anyway so it's pretty much done for me!

You get quite a lot of note paper and also a blank pad at the back of the planner. There are also 2 sections for 'things to do' and 'birthdays'.

Using a zipped planner isn't a new thing for me but an A5 size zipped is so it's been fun setting it up!
With it being a zipped planner it means I can't really stuff it as much as I would like, but that's not too much of an issue. I would hate to stuff it so much that the zip lining starts breaking away or something!

Overall I'm really happy with my new planner and what I paid for it.

TruffleShuffle Harry Potter bracelet/charm haul!


Thank you TruffleShuffle!

I took advantage of the 20% off coupon they had to celebrate 20 years of Harry Potter!
I've been wanting this bracelet for so long, I thought I'd go for it!
Just a few more charms to get to complete the collection and then I'll be looking at getting the Fantastic Beasts one they have. I'm thinking they'd make perfect Christmas gifts!

The photos show the bracelet size at XL (extra large) but I actually returned and exchanged it for the L (large) size as the XL was way too big. I chose it originally because the reviews said go for the size up as they're a tight fit but I did not find that at all. It nearly fell off my hand! But the L is perfect.

Quality wise the charms and the bracelet are perfect and also the customer service from TruffleShuffle was 10/10.

BeautifulPlanning sticker haul


Woohooo! Another BeautifulPlanning sticker haul!

So I was running low on my TV icon stickers and heart flags.. so I decided to get some more kits too.
I am on the design team for BeautifulPlanning but it is honestly my favourite sticker shop. They're great value for money and the range of stickers just keeps growing!
*shameless plug* You can use the code ALYCIA15 for 15% off any order with BeautifulPlanning too.


My most used stickers all stocked up again. The laptop unicorn stickers are too cute!


These are the kits I bought, the Sleepy Bee kit is still my absolute favourite.

New Lyradori!


Lyra&Co were having a sale the other day so I decided to use that opportunity and try out one of the new leather/fabric travellers notebooks. The one I chose was a beautiful extra wide turquoise TN with pink elastics and flowery fabric interior.

A day after dispatch it arrived and WOW. The colour is even more beautiful in person and it feels lovely!
I paid the extra £2 to have another elastic added so there are 4.
The TN cost £18 so even without a discount it's a complete bargain! And the postage is £5 which is first class signed for.
In total it came to £25 including postage but add the 30% discount and it was £19 including postage.

Overall I'm super happy with my latest addition and would love to add some more to my collection!





I've added my inserts to see how it looks with some bulk. It's the perfect size and it's nice having some extra room to play around with.


It feels so soft but it's also nice and sturdy. Maybe it's weird .. but I keep stroking it!


Dashboard from - MyPrettySummer




Watermelon paper clip from - PinkieBowsBoutique
Ice lolly and yellow bow from - MyUnicornPlanner
