Summer Stationary - Rainbow Pens

Warmer weather has finally come knocking on my door and this time round it seems as if blue skies are here to stay for the long haul. Every season I like to transform my pencil case with brand new pens, pencils and  general stationery tools. I am an absolute sucker for creative stationery; I am most likely to regularly refresh my pencil case with new gagdets and gizmos than I would with my make up bag.


I don't believe we absolutely have to use monochromatic shades of ink all year round. Agreed that Black and Blue Biro's come at the forefront of every pencil case to every office desk but imagine if your entire wardrobe outfits were only made up of Shades of Black and Blue? This season is key for making brighter and bolder choices!


Which is why I like to introduce a splash of colour. I like to differentiate my notes between their individual importance and relevance. Because of this; I am in love with these Staedtler Triplus Fineliner Pens. I like to think of these as professional gelpens! A rainbow colour collection perfect for doodling cartoons or annotating notes.


Here are some ideas you could use:

*Green - Grocery/Shopping Lists
*Red - Important reminders/dates to remember
*Yellow - Days out with friends/family
*Pink - Clothes shopping list!
*Blue - Holidays!

As you can see; there is some level of colour coordination according to the category but it does help me organise my calender and more likely to help me remember certain reminders according to colour rather than the date itself. Of course each colour can be alligned to events that you feel suits you best.

The advantage of this brand in particular is that each pen is moulded to a triangular shape for better grip and comfort when writing or drawing! Fingers often warm up more regularly in the heat, especially when you are writing a lot more! (Summer Exams and Essays come to mind!) Pens without a rubber grip are more cooling to the finger tips as they create less friction.


The flap can be lifted and pushed backwards that creates a front-facing stand, making it much easier to keep your entire pen collection in one, organised case. The sturdy 10 pen set collection can easily fit into most satchels and handbags to carry on the go. Simples!


They can be found in most stationery outlets including Amazon.co.uk; the 10 pen set is currently retailing at a discounted price @ £4.99.
