{The Last Year}

Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't posted in a couple days, I drove up to school and was decorating my new and last dorm room! This year is much better, I actually have my own bathroom and kitchen! What  a relief. I spent all yesterday decorating this place. (It was in desperate need of some help). I am not quite finished yet but here are some before and afters of my apartment! It's a great start to a great senior year! Enjoy!

My bed and desk area consisted of a summer camp style bed and a large chunky wood desk. I added a crisp, clean white comforter and added a eye catching pink graphic pillow to give it a dose of color. I hung two black and white photos from my travels to Paris and two black and whites from a trip to San Francisco. Floor pillows act as great alternate seating, so I added two floor pillows that tie all of the colors of the room together. I added a small black night table and placed white flowers in a vase and added a candle, sea shells, and my trusty nook! Last, I topped this unattractive desk off with a Keep Calm and Carry On poster, a pair of great colorful glass pieces, an adorable lamp, bowls and coasters, and a few notebooks!

This side of my room was very plain jane so I hung all of my brightly colored statement necklaces to act as art. I placed a vase of flowers next to my T.V. and built a shelf to hold my other pieces of jewelry and a few other things.

Filling this small closet with my favorite clothes really spiced up this small space, clothes are art!

This bathroom area was boring so I added a pair of chic white lanterns, a vase of hydrangeas, a few little bowls, beaded accessories, and some beautifully packaged soap from Sicily.

This great colorful shower curtain paired with vibrant towels adds character to this dark and dreary bathroom.

  2. It's actually from Bed, Bath, & Beyond! I was so surprised when I saw them there!! They reminded me of Anthropologie, I just had to have them!
