Few things excite me more than an empty dorm room. After three years at boarding school and four years of college, transforming these small spaces into residence halls was something I looked forward to every summer. Here are some of my best tips (and secrets…) to making your college dorm room look more like a home and less like a prison cell.

Dorm shopping was one of my favorite parts of preparing for college. Having a dorm room that feels like home is so important and it alleviates a lot of the stress of moving into college when you have everything figured out in advance.

Moving into your first college apartment is such an exciting time. Especially after living in a dorm, the apartment gives you so much more space and the convenience of a kitchen, and more. If you are moving into a new apartment, there are many things you will need that you might not typically think of. Also, if you are living with a group of people, it can be a good idea to agree on who is bringing which items so that there are no duplicates and to split up the costs.

Every girl needs a good backpack for school that helps keep her organized, is sturdy enough to hold heavy textbooks, plus a laptop and extras. Even though it is an everyday essential, there is no reason that it has to be ordinary. With endless options, it’s easy to find a bag (and even customize one) that matches her unique style and lets her pack more into her day 24/7. #girlbackpacks #backpacks #college #collegegear #university #universitygear #need
