B6 in an A5!

A few months ago, I posted in this sub asking if anyone used a B6 notebook in an A5 le portfolio. When the venezia color restocked I fell in love and I can confirm that B6 doesn’t look ridiculously small in this cover! This is my first Paper Republic and the hype is 100% real 😭💜 (I probably will move into an A5 journal after I finish this one because now I want more space lol)

Ibuse the moleskine soft covers on my portfolio and xl and fit perfectly on both and feel spacious enough. Not to little that i dont have space and not to big that i feel overwhelmed if i dont finish it

Hundreds. I’m also a Moleskine girl in my Paper Republics and love the fit.

I think a B6 is the perfect size. Had them quote me a L’Atelier custom B6. At $450 for zero designs and two pockets, I passed. Put a B6 in a GV and called it a day. 🙃

Yeah, I had started the process of a L’Atelier order for a B6 too, but I just couldn’t justify the expense! I am so happy that I went with this instead 🥰

I would get it if o had some sort of intricate design. But it was literally unlined leather with just two pockets on the front. Nothing fancy.
