Coach Holiday Blog-a-Day

To celebrate the holiday season, Coach selected their 30 favorite blogs (including ANM!) to participate in a fun project called Holiday Blog-a-Day. Basically, we all got to choose our favorite bags from the holiday collection and Coach allowed us to choose a bag to give away to one very lucky reader!

The holidays are a great time to get in touch with your more adventurous fashion instincts. Bold colors, graphic prints, new silhouettes, stand out embellishments, holiday parties are your time to shine. Given the current economic climate, investing in holiday-specific pieces that can only be worn once just isn’t practical. To help you have fun with fashion in a more mindful way I rounded up three bags that aren’t only perfect for holiday, but perfect year-round staples as well.

Be Chic, Be Organized: Best Planners

One of the best ways to stay organized in life, work and in general is with an agenda. To some it’s a diary to others it’s a planner; whatever you call it, it serves the same purpose in many different forms. There are monthly versions, which lay out the month with little space for detail. Then you have the weeklies that map out a week, usually Monday to Sunday which, depending on the size of the planner, leave a limited amount of space. For those of us who are a bit busier, there are the daily planners, with each page dedicated to a single day. Some planners even list time by the hour!

Buying a planner is like going to Starbucks. There are so many different options, additional add-ins, like calculators, note section, address book, etc. You want something chic and portable, but still practical and useful.

Organizing and practicing time efficiency starts here. Buy a planner and start to write things down. From the time of your favorite TV show to a morning run, log it, do it, and don’t forget about the dinner promise you made to your mother last month. With many options below you will be sure to find one that matches your lifestyle.
