Planner Personality: The Luxurist

The luxurist planner believes that all of life is an experience, and that when it comes to experiences, they deserve the best. For this planner, luxury is less about status and more about the quality of a life well lived. The ease and comfort of flying first class. The buttery leather and perfectly aligned rings of their A5 agenda cover. The attentive service at their favorite restaurant. The luxurist has high expectations, and almost miraculously, the world rises up to meet them.

If you resonate with this personality, consider the ways your planning routine can support your desire for exceptional experiences. Perhaps you could add a folder to your planner for the business cards of your chosen support team, from your sales associate to your tailor. Schedule regular appointments in your monthly agenda to recharge in whatever ways you like best. Research and take notes on the small details that make such a difference to you, whether it’s the perfect zellige tile for the backsplash in your upcoming kitchen renovation or the wine tasting itinerary for your next weekend getaway. 

When it comes to styling the luxurist planner, you’ll want to focus on quality construction that you can rely on for consistent excellence.​​​​ Textures and materials set the tone. Layer tactile elements like leather, velvet, translucent vellum, and embossed paper to create depth and richness. When it comes to pattern and motif, look to classic design elements like tortoiseshell, natural stone (marble, granite, slate, etc.), mother of pearl, and terrazzo.

And remember, luxury is, above all, deeply personal. It’s about living the life you want and elevating the quality of your experiences, whether that means hiring a personal trainer at the gym, buying fresh flowers for your home office, or using a beautiful fountain pen for your daily to-do list. Because you deserve the best of what you love.
