AK Faves: Dorm Inspiration

I hope it’s not too soon to start mentally decorating my dorm for next semester–who am I kidding? Even if it is too early, I could care less because I need an escape from the torment this boredom is putting me through… truly. Pinterest and my cozy sweater from Target has helped me figure out that I like mustard yellow and pink… and grey…and deep blue. If you’ve been following my blog for the past couple of moths, you can see that it’s newest facelift is a reflection of these things. Oh, and I also have a new found affinity for elephants. All of these things will be thrown up in my room next semester, trust and believe that. Below, I’m sharing a few pins that I will be drawing inspiration from when the times comes for dorm shopping. 

For the bedding, I was able to find a mustard colored comforter with a (sort of) plum colored throw blanket. I think I’m gonna do a dark blue sheets set and pink pillow cases to create an overall sultry feel. I like being able to have options, so I’m going to get either a grey or deep blue comforter with the mustard and pink serving as the accent colors.

For my desk area, I can’t really do much because that space is kind of tight and I need as much space as possible when I’m doing work. I’m going to get some of those locker shelves so I have somewhere to put books and I might get a laptop stand. I definitely want to get either a dry erase calendar or a regular calendar to hang on the wall. Also, I really need to look into some drawer organizers because if you could see what my drawers look like now… giiiirrllll.

For a little decoration, I want to add some succulent plants, solely because I don’t know how to keep a plant alive, and I want to hang some prints on the wall. Honestly, I could care less what the kitchen, bathroom, and living room looks like. I know that sounds bad and lazy, but as long as we have the necessary stuff, I’m good! I can’t wait until the day comes so I can share pictures of the actual product.
