Last week I collaborated with Pottery Barn Teen to create my dream dorm room if I were college bound again. It was feminine, filled with gold, and would have easily carried me through my first few years of post college Chicago life as well. This week I’m partnering with PB Teen again, but to create a space fit for a guy (cue Beyonce’s song “If I were a boy”). Having lived with my own boy (the Mr.) through four different homes now this was by no means a reach.
Of course my color palette consisted of bright orange and deep navy with a mix of patterns including this skull bedding (which I tried to figure out how to incorporate into my own home because I love it so much), the always classic stripes, and one contrasting throw pillow since even one throw pillow is a stretch for the boys. Then a big trunk at the end of the bed for storage, plus a few well placed pieces of wall decor, a desk, and a comfy spot for TV watching and video games and you pretty much have all they’ll need to survive their college years.
You can get the full look here, plus make sure to check out PB Teen’s “Design Your Own” application which is perfect for those of us who need to see our creation come to life before we press the buy button. truly, MKR
This post was sponsored by PB Teen but the opinions and love for PB Teen is 100% my own.
I love that skull bedding as well. It would be great for a guy or girl.
My son is a senior this year and he’s moving out of his fraternity house and into an apartment and whatever it takes I will make it look halfway decorated so these are great ideas. Thanks for sharing.
Me too! I am still trying to figure out where I could put it in my own home. xo
My pleasure! xo and good luck!
