It’s pretty much a universal truth that dorm life is far from glamorous. When you first walk into your new home for the year, you’re probably going to be underwhelmed by the functional-but-ugly wooden furniture, or the bare (and probably chipped) walls. But “dorm” and “luxury” don’t have to be mutually exclusive—it only takes a few products to make your room cozy and homey, so you won’t have to spend the year feeling like you’re living in box.
That’s why we’ve partnered with Pottery Barn Dorm, because they understand that the best dorm products have both function and style. You’re going to want to add all these decor essentials to your back-to-school shopping list, but here’s some of our favorites to get you started.
1. Pretty Pleats Quilt Bundle
2. Essential Shower Bundle
The thought of communal showers already has us shuddering, but fear not! This shower bundle not only makes it super easy to buy all the things you need (a bath towel, hand towel, washcloth and shower caddy are all included), but the super-soft cotton towels and color choices will allow you to shower in comfort and style.
3. Underbed See-Thru Organizer
4. No Nails Tech Smart Faux Headboard
5. The Emily & Meritt Sunglasses Holder
6. Sleepsmart 37.5 Mattress Pad

8. Williams Sonoma Open Kitchen K-Cup Coffee Maker
Did someone say coffee? Yes, you can start your mornings off by waiting in the interminable Starbucks line, or you can use that time for getting some extra shut-eye and then get your caffeine fix right at home with this beautiful coffee maker. Plus, we all know coffee tastes better when you drink it from your favorite mug.
9. Natalia Duvet Cover + Sham
10. Williams Sonoma Open Kitchen Dinnerware Collection
Sorry, ladies, but instant ramen isn’t going to cut it anymore. Living your best, luxurious life starts with the food you’re putting into your body, and with these sleek, functional dishes, you’ll actually get excited about heading to the kitchen to fix something up for yourself. They’re made of porcelain and are microwave-safe, so we have a feeling you’ll be holding on to these even after you leave college.
Get a few of these awesome items for your dorm room, and we promise you’ll be living large this school year.
