She has got to get Saturday and Sunday on their own page! I use the dapper desk because of this reason. I would love the coil and beautiful covers but I NEED Saturday and Sunday on their own page!!!!!
@@AmandasFavoritesgood point, it would be 26 ish extra pages. The Saturday and Sunday together is why I can’t use the Day Designer either. But that cover is gorgeous!!!
Great video. I was unfortunately dissapointed with the changes they made to the weekly. I loved how portable their old weekly was and for this size it feels like a missed opportunity to seperate the weekends. If its possible, I would love to see comparison to other similar planners. The one I'm most curious about is Ashley Shelly.
I believe this is my 4th or 5th year using the Ashley Shelly planner. I love it! It’s light weight, has great paper, lined monthly and the horizontal layout is very similar to the simplified weekly. You didn’t ask me but I just felt like chiming in because I adore the planner creator & the planner Lol 🙂
I can definitely share Ashley shelly next to it in stories on Instagram when I get back from picking up my son and driving him home from college. I am about to leave tomorrow and I am sick. So I am sorry I can't get that to you any sooner! Remind me on IG in 2 weeks if I haven't shared it;) Another with a similar layout is Golden Coil & Day Designer Weekly- which I will have a new review on soon. Golden Coil I already have a video up on that layout: ua-cam.com/video/z7rMS7dnFOE/v-deo.html And Ashley Shelly is also up on my channel, and a Day Designer weekly from a few years ago-layout hasn't changed is already up too:) I know you want to see them side by side. But that is the best I can do for now:) Hope that helps!
You pronounced Beaufort correctly! My brother lived in Beaufort SC and I remember him telling me how it was confusing because there was one in NC but pronounced differently. Beautiful beautiful area!
I had to look it up! I didn't know those 2 cities were pronounced differently! I have heard it is so beautiful! I would love to visit NC and or SC one day:)
LOVE that you showed all the inside color covers and showed how that is what is seen day in and day out -- great point, thanks for lining them all up so we could see those inside colors!!! ❤
I had to come on and watch this again. 😊 I am loving the weekly as much as I hoped I would. And that blue on the inside cover is just stunning! 😍 I agree with you, the Birdies cover just keeps growing on me more and more. I also really love her mini notebooks!
Aw, thanks for watching after already seeing it on Patreon! I am so glad you love the birds as much as I do:) and the blue inside is so happy to me- like a blue sky:)
Maybe someday I can go with Simplified. It is a shame that the planners don't work for me in this season of life as the artwork is so beautiful. If they only made their notebooks with more pages and an actual a5 size I could've done that but, nope, they don't work either.
I have LOVED Simplified planners in the past and really wanted the new weekly…BUT, I went with Erin Condren this year because I haven’t had one in 7ish years! We’ll see how it goes. I got the 7x9 vertical because I love the versatility. I also need full weekends.
Thanks, I want the 15$ off link for 1st time purchase.. I just decided thanks to you.Beautiful video and attention to detail, 💕 the way you presented them.
I fell in love with the birdies cover as soon as I saw it. I got the weekly. I’m still in a calendar year blush magnolia for some health tracking because of the times. I too could kick myself for not keeping covers over the years. I could reuse them! 🤦🏻♀️
It is always a struggle to choose. I have never used a Simplified Planner before, but this year, I really love the design and the colors. The artist’s work is stunning.
I know someone asked why no more happy stripe this year in her FB LIVE when introducing the cover reveals....and I was doing housework while listening and didn't catch that. So you could go back and listen to that...if you want:)
Hello Amanda! Great video! Love the artist cover! I’m a diehard horizontal weekly planner. I value portability and am heartbroken 💔 over the changes this year. I’m currently looking for a portable horizontal planner for next year. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you!
I am in Utah right now picking up my son at College- so I don't have access to my office shelves for ideas....but I will tell you what I have off the top of my head. I am thinking you want bound only- So bound & horizontal are: Papier (haven't reviewed yet). Leuchtturm (on amazon), EC Softbound A5- but new ones aren't out till the fall, Aura Estelle has some Horizontal layouts too and all portable. Sorry that is all I can think of off the top of my head. Honestly, I don't think they make enough book bound planners- that are functional and portable.
Great review Amanda! I love Simplified and switched over to them a few years when I saw your video of the Daily. I love S/S on the same page and would not like two books like EC!
It will fit bc it's smaller than an A5...it is a lot smaller. So you can stick it in there...but it won't line up with the other a5 petite planners you have in there.
Just in case I lose my marbles and even consider buying a second daily planner, I saw your pen test, but how does the paper compare with Erin Condren, in your personal opinion?
It is just as thick and luxurious feeling but different. I really like it. it's smoother than EC paper- no "tooth" or texture to it;) And I had to LOL at "lose your marbles". I am here for ya!
I have been binging your videos looking for the right daily planner. Thank you for making them as they have helped so much! I’m new to Simplified, would their Jan-Dec 2025 be different covers or same as the academic just released?
I’m so glad my videos are helpful to you! Yes, the covers on the Simplified are the same. And if you’re looking for the perfect daily planner for you, you’ll love this Tuesday’s video 😉
Could you do a comparison of Emily Ley and Erin Condren’s paper color? I LOVE Emily Ley planners, but I never liked the paper color. It looks as though the color has changed? Is that true?
I will do that on Instagram when I get home for you. So maybe Friday or Saturday this next week. if you don't see it please remind me since I am traveling right now;)
Here is the code: www.talkable.com/x/TF3xuM And the notebooks fit in covers depeneding on what size PP cover you have. I think they are closest to B6- but I don't have that cover size to try. I only have wide & a5 PP covers. SO you would just have to compare the size of these notebooks from her website measurements to the measurements of PP B6 Notebook size- or just google b6 size...it's a standard size;) Sorry I don't have the exact right size of cover to try them out for you;) Okay- I just looked it up....they are just about b6 size a tiny bit off....but I bet it works;)
I was disappointed with the planner cover options this year. Last year's covers were stunning and so hard to choose from. This year's designs just don't impress me. 😢
@@AmandasFavorites That is so true, and I guess they can't please everyone 😊. Thanks so much for the awesome review. I always enjoy your videos, and who knows, maybe one of those designs will grow on me! 😁
I wish wish WISH they would stop putting their logo in the middle.of the front cover. It ruins the gorgeous artwork and just annoys the cr@p out of me.
that is 100 % the other problem I have with them. The cover artwork is stunning but that takes away from it so much. I really wish they hadn't even put the gold foiling wording in amongst the birds on the artist edition either. The back bottom of the cover is enough.
The Beaufort Birdies really speak to me - beautiful.❣️ Missing my son who moved to Mt. Pleasant after college. TY for the review and I’m using your code to order all things Birdies! Do you have a new code, please?🩵 💙

I understand! Sometimes the things we find so beautiful just aren't what we need in our season...like you said...maybe someday!
That blue is gorgeous!! When I buy my 2025 daily I’m going with the birds 💗.
