Chic Deac Dorm Room (Pt. 3)

Pottery Barn has this gorgeous yellow painterly paisley duvet cover on sale for $70. Keep in mind that your college bed fulfills many purposes: it's your desk, your dining room table and your sofa. I can speak from personal experience with a PB duvet - they last forever, wash really well in college dorm dryers and it was always easy to remove stains.


Urban Outfitters has some really great accessories for rooms. First, let's cover the area rug. Every room needs a rug. The tile floors are way too cold to walk on in the morning, so invest in a good rug. This will get a lot of wear and tear - in my experience they can last two years if you take good care of them. Check out this yellow chenille rug from Urban for $40.


I love this pillow, for $24 from Urban Outfitters, and think it would be perfect with this one we had previously blogged about. Put them together with this duvet and you'll have the cutest bed on campus.


Also, this alarm clock has a lot of charm. It would make waking up for an 8am class much easier!

Lastly, let's talk about a wall monogram. This is a perfect dorm room decoration because it isn't too heavy and it doesn't cause any wall damage. I'd order the circle one (pictured below) in black or yellow. There are a ton of color choices, but obviously we like the black and gold best!


One week until move-in day on campus!
