Journaling just got a fun upgrade.
Moleskine just launched a collaborative journal with K-Pop superstars BLACKPINK. The limited-edition hard cover journal features artwork from the girl group’s 2016 album Square Two on the front. BLINKs can snag up the journal while supplies last on Amazon right now for $32.11. The journal is 240 pages and a signature Moleskine detailing like rounded corners and an elastic closure paired with a pink ribbon bookmark.
Moleskine x BLACKPINK Limited Edition Cahier Journals
Four BLACKPINK-themed cashier’s journals.
The pages are ivory-colored, FSC-certified acid-free and feature a large, ruled format accompanied by a nifty expandable inner pocket and a classic “In case of loss” notice printed inside. With the purchase of your Moleskine, you’ll also receive a set of BLACKPINK stickers that allow you to make the journal your own. Along with the journal, Moleskine launched pocket-sized limited-edition Cahier Journals in a set of four for $17. Like the larger journal, these cashier journals feature rounded corners along with visible Singer stitching on the spine and detachable sheets for convenience in case you need to jot something down.
Our favorite piece from the collection is the Mini Notebook Charm for $14. The mini notebook is journalception, serving as a replica of the collaborative Moleskine notebook turned into an ultra-cute bag charm. It also doubles as a real notebook. This offers users another way to customize their journal if the stickers weren’t enough.
Beyond being adorable, this collection is extremely practical. The journals can be stashed in your purse or pocket for jotting down your thoughts on the go or used while at work, subtly showing all your coworkers that you rep one of the most successful girl groups in the world. This is one of those subtle merch pieces with motifs that hint at the group, like the black and pink accents and the geometric album art. It would certainly make a stylish addition to your daily journaling routine. It would also make a great Christmas gift for the K-Pop fan in your life.
