It’s new planner season! It’s that exciting time of the year where we get to choose the new planners that will get us through the next year. I know I can’t be the only person who’s ready to close the 2020 pages and just start fresh. Oh, I am, oh ok, cool.
Every year Erin Condren brings something new and amazing to her launches and this year is definitely no different. The brand-spankin’ new Erin Condren 2020-2021 LifePlanners launched on April 29th and they’re amazing! I’m breaking down the new Erin Condren LifePlanner for you in this post. Keep scrolling to the end to learn how to get $10 OFF YOUR FIRST ERIN CONDREN ORDER.
Full transparency, I was gifted this LifePlanner by Erin Condren. However, I’ve been an avid Erin Condren LifePlanner user for years and love the brand. Need some ideas on how to use your new planner? See how I use my Erin Condren Deluxe Monthly Planner here.
Erin Condren LifePlanner Qualities I Love
- High-quality coil. The EC coil is available in 4 options: platinum, gold, black, and rose gold. I’m a rose gold girl myself.
- 80lb Mohawk paper. High-quality paper is what will make or break a planner for me and Erin Condren nailed it!
- Customization. I love that I have the ability to customize my cover and my planner to what best fits my life at the moment.
- Interchangeable accessories. There are covers, stickers, pens, oh my!
This year, I have the Vertical Colorful Layers LifePlanner to share with you. So, let’s get started!

The weekly Erin Condren LifePlanner will arrive in a gorgeous storage box. I wish the storage box were a little more sturdy, however, it is definitely more sturdy than it was last year. I currently am using the storage box to store my interchangeable covers and some stickers.
Every LifePlanner starts with a luxurious vellum sheet. The vellum sheet matches your planner and in my case, its colorful layers.
We then move on to the two-page spread with the mini months that cover 2020 and 2021. I usually use transparent dot stickers in this section to track all the feminine things that we women experience every month.
The next two-page spread contains 12 boxes that you can use for just about anything. You can use them for goal setting, planning out your weekly spreads, keeping track of special events, memory keeping — the options are endless and they’re all up to you.
At the start of each new month, there’s a blank lined note page and a quote page.
The monthly view is simply amazing! I’m a colorful girl, so seeing these vibrant colors that just pop off the page brings me all the joy a planner girl could ever ask for.
After the monthly view, there’s the dashboard/productivity spread. Last year this page was immediately behind the tab and well us planner girls begged for the tab to be returned to the month and guess what — she listened! Another big change with this page is the headers. Last year, there were headers for birthdays and monthly goals. Those constraints really weren’t what we were looking for and after communicating that with Erin Condren, look no headers! This page can literally be used for whatever you like.
Here’s the weekly layout in the colorful LifePlanner. The colors here are a bit toned down compared to what they were last year, but it’s still color and I love it!
Now let’s go all the way to the back of the LifePlanner where we have our notes page. Last year we had dot grid, lined pages, and coloring pages. Well, this year we just have 11 FULLY LINED notes page! Yay!
Next up is the contacts page.
And finally, we have a two-page spread of the mini months for the next year which is 2022. You can use this section to future plan. That’s not really my thing. If I’m really being honest with you, I have never used these pages.
Every Erin Condren LifePlanner comes with 4 sheets of stickers that are coiled into the back. The stickers will match the theme of the planner you chose. I chose the colorful, so I got the colorful stickers. And also tucked in the back pocket is the perpetual calendar.
Accessories
With every Erin Condren launch, there are new accessories that coordinate with the theme for the year. This year, there are 2 themes and there are accessories to match both! I received the Colorful Layers Accessories.

I love all of the changes Erin Condren made to the 2020-2021 LifePlanner. She fixed everything us planner girls were complaining about last year and didn’t introduce too much that would be hard to adjust to. I absolutely love my Erin Condren LifePlanner and can’t wait to move into it in July!
