Digital-first may be the norm nowadays, but I still consider myself more of a pen-to-paper than a Google Cal kind of gal. Don’t get me wrong, the latter has been one of my main WFH lifelines, but there’s something so ceremonious to me about jotting down reminders or to-do lists in a good ~old-fashioned~ notebook or planner. Which, speaking of, if you share my same love of physical organization tools and calendars, now’s the best time to start picking out a new 2022 planner. And choose wisely — you’re spending an entire year together, after all.

To help broaden your search, I rounded up a handful of planner options, all equal parts stylish and well-curated for a range of date-keeping preferences. Looking for something simple and straightforward? You got it — there are plenty of picks with standard monthly and weekly views for staying on top of work, school, or your social agenda. Want a more in-depth planner? You’ll find that too, with notebooks dedicated to goal-keeping, or packed with extra pages for journaling. Heck, there are even planners with built-in stickers and illustrations for coloring — because why not? Whether stashed on your desk or carried in your purse 24/7, these eight planner finds are perfect for kicking off the new year on a fresh note.

Paper Source

What better way to ring in 2022 than with this colorful-meets-practical planner? It’s fun enough to double as desk decor, especially with its sleek vegan leather finish. Not only can you keep up with weekly and monthly to-dos, but the little book also has pages dedicated to setting goals, jotting down addresses, and doodling. There’s plenty more planner inspo where this came from on the Paper Source site, too.

Rifle Paper Co.
$36.00

Rifle Paper Co. planners have been my go-to for the past few years — they’re highly durable thanks to a printed hardcover (like this chic flower-infused version), they’re perfect for staying organized via weekly and monthly pages, and they’re honestly great bookshelf collectibles when you’re done using them for the year. This one also boasts three pages of adorable stickers (because you’re never too old), plus a built-in pocket to stash any important notes.

Etsy

I can’t get enough of this Etsy find’s sophisticated simplicity — and don’t let the compact size fool you. It covers 14 months (November 2021 through December 2022) with 84 planning and note-taking pages at the ready. You can also choose between three color options: lavender, mint gray, or custard yellow. Did I mention it’s less than $20, to boot?

If you’re looking to make your 2022 routine feel more fun by any means possible (#mood), this planner from ban.do’s collection goes above and beyond. The cheery floral cover is just the tip of the iceberg: on top of calendars and adorable artwork, you’ll also find sticker sheets, notes of encouragement, templates to list your priorities, and a coloring page (because, again, you’re never too old).

Even if organization isn’t your forte, this planner feels especially enjoyable because you can add your name to the front cover — and what's more exciting than personalization?

Papier
$28.99

Last but certainly not least, Papier has some of my favorite luxe-looking planner prints thus far, as evidenced by this edgy jaguar hardcover. These run from December 2021 through January 2, 2023, with yearly, monthly, and weekly views printed on high-quality paper, plus spaces to record goals and to-do lists. It’s also customizable — you can edit the text on the cover — and includes a built-in ribbon bookmark so you never lose your place. Basically, this is what stylish planner dreams are made of.
