Choose a journal that feels right in your hands and suits your lifestyle. For instance, does it fit in your purse, does it open flat on the table, is it light weight enough to carry along, etc. If it fits you and your lifestyle, you'll be more inclined to write in it when something comes to mind.
When I was journaling, the journal itself had to fit me and my lifestyle. I used to journal in the car a lot...that's when ideas would come to me, so I'd write at stop lights, in traffic jams, etc. I'd sometimes park the car at the beach, rest stop or state park and write away. If I was fighting the journal, I wouldn't write in it.
