another workhorse is rhodia, famous for its grid paper:

some argue that dark lines distract, white lines don't... try out Whitelines (which comes in both grid + lined):

can't decide between lines or grid? try doane! grids + lines:

new this year are noteletts from letts of london. 192 pages of quality paper that will hold up under a fountain pen! and fabric covers in bright, fun colors.

but our philosophy is, your closet fashionable, why shoudln't your desk be, too! try these more decorative options:
susyjack* has some great notebook designs and coordinates with fun ikat patterns!

russell + hazel will keep the summer going with fruit-covered composition notebooks!

for the more mod set:
and lots more in the store that you'll just have to check out in person.
and here's our 1 spoiler from the gift fair we just attended (so these are not yet in, but they're on their way!) - feeling nostalgic for those old school composition notebooks? made with 100% post consumer waste recycled paper, made using bio gas derived energy:
or this *awesome* cork notebook... maybe they out to check out re-cork cville for some supplies! made from sustainably-harvested cork and acid-free pages, this one is for the real cork-hugger!
