Fabulous Flamingo Filofax (and inside my bag)

How gorgeous is this Flamingo design Filofax?
The Flamingo is the winning design from the Filofax ‘Cover Story’ graduate design competition.

The eye-catching and elegant design, created by Rebecca Mountain, inspired by the poise, colour and grace of flamingos, beat off a tidal-wave of talent from other design graduates.  Rebecca has recently been enjoying a paid work-placement with Filofax so that she could see her print being brought to life on the popular cotton twill canvas personal organisers which will be sold around the world.

The Flamingo is available in two colourways – blue and sage – as well as in two sizes – Pocket (£28) and Personal (£35). A pen loop keeps your pen secure, while a practical elastic closure will keep your Flamingo organiser safely closed when you’re on the move.    

Filofax is supporting fresh design talent again this year with a new ‘Cover Story’ graduate design competition.  Details will be announced shortly on the Filofax website.


I was lucky enough to be sent one of the stunning organisers- I have used a Filofax for years and my tired old one welcome getting a break.

I love how the colour theme of this new design goes perfectly with my Brit-Stitch satchel and I thought I’d use this post to hop on the “what’s in my bag” bandwagon,
although as you can see, my bag is not nearly as organised as most and only contains the usual wallet, keys, phone, lipbalm, sweets, glasses/sunnies and tissues combo (with about twenty pens thrown in for luck). One of these days I’ll be super organised and carry round perfectly pretty notebooks and all manner of other gorgeous things but for now my chaos works for me and well, I don’t think I’m a tidy person by nature.

What’s in your bag? What do you think of the new Filofax designs?

  3. I’m a huge Filofax fan, I love me red Malden!
    I love this design but i’m a little worried it’d get dirty quick and look old because of the canvas design!

  4. It’s pretty as are the contents of your bag- no really- mine are a complete state!x

  5. I love a good Filofax, and that one is beautiful! I much prefer writing things down to remember them, but I think if I bought a new one then it’d get lost in my skip of a handbag!

  10. I sooo need a new filofax. i had one a few years ago but lost it 🙁
    now i just have multiple bits of paper with things i need to remember written on them. VERY organised, not!!!

    my bag is a back hole of stuff. i have pens, plasters, hair-ties, lipbalm, you name it… i have it! Not to mention the staple of a british girl about town – an umbrella!! But one of the things i always make sure i have, is a pack of tissues. Its just something you always end up needing! xx
