Little Pocket Chameleon


I have a new filofax! My lovely little Pocket Chameleon. It’s now in full use although it still needs to be customised up.

I didn’t think, as mentioned previously that I’d ever enjoy using the pocket but I’ve got to say I love it! Every time I take it out to pay for something I feel the same sort of proudness and joy I felt when using my Ted Baker purse. I have yet to encounter a fellow planner “nod” which will just be the icing on the cake.

Not quite flat while open but can stay open itself
Pretty packed with hardly 'nowt in it but no where near as bulky as a personal

For me I realised that the lack of happenings in my life meant the Finsbury became too much of a burden to fill with nothing. So I’ve decided for the moment to use my Pocket as just a diary with odd bits here and there with the view that I’ll add to it the more busier I become.

The set up is:
Tab 1 – Diary
Tab 2 – Notes – mainly to do lists
Tab 3 – Info – currently unused but may use it to jot down any wedding venues/ideas I have to later transfer to my A5
Tab 4 – Finance – I really want to start making use of this as Student loans and the malarkey are rearing their heads + wedding rubbish will really help me keep focus.
Tab 5 – Addresses

The tabs are already labelled by Filofax and for now are working pretty well. The size is perfect about the size of my hand, and really a perfect fit to downside from the personal size.




I’d really recommend trying a downsize to anyone who like me thought they’d never really go for a pocket.

Along with indulging in new filofaxes I finally bought two Frixion pens in black and blue and came across this brilliant pocket I bought from Japan containing Hello Kitty stickers from 2006. Low and behold it fits PERFECTLY in the pocket! LOVE IT! I’ve added some of my other stickers to encourage me to decorate my pages as I go along rather than at the end of the week as I tend to do now.



The Fiance is amazed at how multi functional the little diary is with its 5 card slots that are not stiff or difficult to use in the slightest plus a little side pocket where I keep loyalty cards for nandos and M&S cards and a generous slit pocket across the top for cash and receipts.

My lovely kitties

I keep all my change in the back zip pocket and am finding that I am using it a lot more which was all I wanted from my little sweets!

The only problem I have is I have no idea what to call this one! Any ideas?
