Closer Look: A5 Original Filofax
I am in no way a Filofax expert but here are my brief thoughts on my initial feelings about the Original. As I add to my collection, I will add more reviews and comparisons as I search for the perfect Filofax (for me).
The leather holds fingerprints so I will have to clean it more than I would like but I LOVE the way it feels.
The inside is what almost turned me away. I like the card holders and pockets that are found in most of the other Filofaxes. I don't like the elastic strap at all but have made use of it by attaching my pens. For the most part, the planner lies flat...at least flat enough for me.
Instead of hold a wider notepad, this one comes with the skinny notepad. I am thinking that I can use a shopping list to add more pop of color instead of this Filofax mini pad.
The planner came with 2 types of inserts: Week on 2 pages with lines and Week on 2 pages w/o lines. Still deciding on the best way to organize the planner for work and which inserts will work best for staying organized throughout the week.
I was warned that the strap was small and it really is. The more stuff I put in my Original the more the strap becomes a problem. I have found that I may have to remove the pens from the front so that the organizer will close more comfortably.
All in all, I really like the A5 Original in patent purple. The color is great and I love the way it feels (and smells). It is way more stylish than my Domino but I have to really take care of it because it doesn't feel as sturdy. What do you think about the Original?
