4. Comforter or Duvet
Buy at Dormify
There are so many cute duvets and comforters at stores like Dormify, PBTeen, and Urban Outfitters. This eyelash comforter from Dormify is our fave to match any decor.
5. Pillows
Good pillows are key to making a dorm bed feel 10x more comfortable. These cooling gel pillows are a favorite here at CF and you can bring them with you to your first apartment.
6. Pillowcases
If you don’t have satin pillowcases yet, do yourself a favor and invest ASAP. They are the best for preventing wrinkles and helping you wake up with perfect hair every day — no more tangles. This set is only $9 and will change your life.
7. Throws or Extra Blankets
Buy at Pink Lily
You need at least one throw blanket for guests (or if your room gets chilly). This one is a dupe for the popular Barefoot Dreams blankets at a fraction of the price.
8. Decorative Pillows
Buy at Dormify
Every girl knows you can’t have too many decorative pillows. Get some cute ones that show off your personality, like this eyelash pillow.
9. Air Mattress and/or Sleeping Bag
A must if you plan to have guests visit. I like this air mattress because it has a built-in pump and it’s raised up off the ground so your guest will feel like they’re sleeping on a real bed.
10. Bed Risers
Optional but really nice to have, bed risers double your storage space in your room. For more convenience, get these 7? risers — they come with a built-in plug for charging your devices in bed.
11. Dorm Bed Shelf
Another “nice to have” item that makes life 10x easier! The BedShelfie is a genius product we’re seeing all over campus. It has space to hold your laptop, phone, and water bottle next to your bed.
