Tropical Green

Products: Bedding – Urban Outfitters, Planter – Urban Outfitters, Bookshelf – Target, Bookends – West Elm, Tapestry – Amazon, Print – Dormify

A tropical green color scheme will keep your dorm room cool and the envy of your entire floor. During the craziness of the semester, having a relaxing escape will help keep you calm. Fresh accents – like this palm leaf print and cactus planter – fit in with bold, tropical themed bedding. A skinny green ladder bookcase is a simple, yet fantastic accent piece for your personal oasis.

Mauve & Grey

Products: Clock – Amazon, Lamp – PB Teen, Floor Pillow – Urban Outfitters, Bedding – Hayneedle, Pillow – West Elm, Blanket – Dormify

This calming color scheme, based on neutral grey and mauve, is naturally soothing. Everything about this luxurious pintuck bedding is nap-worthy! When you keep a color scheme simple and muted, it leaves room to play around with textures, like this velvet floor pillow, fluffy accent pillow, and soft chenille throw. Plus, we couldn’t resist this pastel task lamp – it’s too cute!

Classic Black & White

Products: Tapestry – PB Teen, Pillow – PB Teen, Frame – Amazon, Print – Dormify, Welcome Mat – Amazon, Rug – Dormify, Sheets – Urban Outfitters

A chic black and white vibe is always a safe bet. But just because you’re sticking to an achromatic theme doesn’t mean your dorm has to be boring! A faux fur rug and bold welcome mat will make a statement. This B&W watercolor world map tapestry would add some charm to your room too! Plus, who could go wrong with some adorable eyeball sheets? 

Retro Yellow & Pink

Products: Print – Dormify, Floor Pillow – Urban Outfitters, Throw Pillow – Target, Rug – PB Teen, Laundry Basket – Urban Outfitters, Blanket – Urban Outfitters

If you prefer your dorm colors to be eclectic, a retro yellow and pink scheme is the way to go. We are currently obsessing over mustard yellow with touches of muted, deep pink. This Miami print is a must-have, especially when paired with a funky pom-pom throw pillow. A natural jute rug will keep your style simple while tying your room together. Add a cute laundry hamper and a brushed wool throw blanket, and you’re all set!
