This notebook was received as a free gift after purchasing items through Boden, a clothing company. The 24x16cm notebook is filled with 'My Week' pages as well as blank pages to make notes. This is an example of a simple organiser that includes some of the identified elements to include in a notebook.
The double page is used to encourage the user to plan out their week by providing space for a 'To Do' and 'Shopping List'. This is further encouraged through having space to make notes on for each day of the week. The feminine colour scheme reflects the receiver of the notebook and is something to highly consider when following a similar format.

This planner is an example of more of a high-end product. The cover of the notebook has been created using a simple marble ink effect which has then been reprinted onto a hard cover. There is also an element of foiling on the cover with the brand name and logo being printed in gold foil. This is a common style seen on a number of notebooks.
The inside pages of the planner are bound together using a ring binder - a more expensive form of binding. The simple calendar layout of the pages allows for a full month to be seen on one double page. However, as a result of this there appears to be limit space to write notes and therefore implements the pages are more of a general calendar use.

This is a simple example of a weekly calendar. What particularly drew my attention to this design was the handwritten text at the top of the page. This adds personality and character to the piece which makes it appear more inviting to view and therefore use.
