As most of you are well aware, I really enjoy bright colors, especially in decorating! (However, if you weren't aware, check out my colorful freshman and sophomore dorm room posts.) I also absolutely love white interior design!!! There's something so fresh and clean about all white, or at least primarily white, decor. When it comes to decorating, the icing on the cake for me is throwing in some gold metallic accents and colorful elements to keep the space bright and fun! When decorating smaller …

My Colorful Sophomore Dorm
I moved out of my sophomore dorm two and a half weeks ago and I already miss it! It's certainly nice to have my own room again, but I loved the way we decorated our dorm this year. My roommates and I added personal touches on pretty much every wall and I contributed a lot of color Lilly Pulitzer to the room. We all added our own style to the decor so we had a nice mixing pot of everyone's taste in the room as a whole. I absolutely loved having my bed lofted this year! Not only did I …
Dorm Gallery Wall
Earlier this semester I posted an Instagram (shown further down in the post) of me in our dorm kitchen with a can of gold spray paint... and that's how this all began. Ever since I was little, I've had a fondness for gallery style walls in other people's homes. Whether they're made of art, family photos, or a mixture of both, I've always loved looking at them and contemplating what I would put in my own! This semester I decided that I wanted to create my own mini gallery wall above my bed. I …
My Colorful Freshman Dorm
I promised that I'd share pictures of my freshman dorm with all of you after I had moved out for the year. I have been soooooo busy these last few weeks, but yesterday I finally had time to go through the tons of pictures I took of my dorm. All year I was consistently asked how I had transformed my basic and industrial dorm room into such a warm and fun environment. My roommate and I added tons of personal touches to the room including photos, personalized crafts, and mementos from home. I …
Monogram Pillow Giveaway
I can't believe that the school year is almost over. Next week is my last week of classes and then it's time for finals! I was recently scrolling back through my Instagram and I was reminded that it was right at this time of year, last year, that I ordered the first thing for my dorm room. I'm sure that plenty of my readers who are graduating soon are starting to plan their dorm for next year, or at least starting to think about what they're going to need for it! With that in mind, I'm super …
Dorm Dreaming
Recently I've been browsing Pinterest and Tumblr quite a bit for dorm room inspiration. There are so many cool pictures and ideas out there! I've also been chatting a lot with my roommate for next year about our dorm design and I am so excited to move in and set up my home for next year! One of my other friends, Kristen, who I've done some dorm crafting with, has decided that the best way to describe my dorm theme is anything and everything pink Lilly. I'm obviously not going to be spending a …
