It is going to be your home away from home for at least the next few years – this 12′ x 16′ rectangle of space, that not only do you have to personalize and call your own, but more than likely share half of it with someone else. And if you channel Elle Woods from “Legally Blonde”, and the thought of plain white boring spaces makes you shudder, you need our India Rose twin duvet.
Vanilla blossoms on a salmon pink backdrop, and made of cotton as soft as rose petals, it will saturate your little tiny space with a rosy golden light and bring the “inner diva” out in you. And as a happy coincidence it measures 70″ x 90″……ideal for most dorm room beds!!!!

Sheets
Sure, we could go with the same shade of pink here, but I am confident that sheets in a heavier shade of pink bordering on plum/berry purple will add a deeper dimension to the ensemble and accentuate the grape color in the trellis which features so prominently in the reverse pattern (Did I mention the duvet is reversible???). Plus, “plum” sounds more adult…wouldn’t you say? 
And when your dorm RA is doing the rounds, I suggest you quickly switch over to the simple, but beautiful, vanilla sheets from Dealway instead of the flamboyant purple…just saying…..

Pillows
Your bed is going to double up as your sofa and it has to be warm and comfortable and cozy, so it stands to reason that fun, flirty bed pillows are an absolute must. Not just pillow shams, but big pillows to lean back against and small quirky pillows to toss around and tuck under your feet. And nothing like a array of pillows to substitute for a headboard! The sheets sets do come with pillow shams you can use, but save those for emergencies and use the India Rose shams. Then add in all the fun euro shams and accent pillows!!!

Curtains
To quickly and inexpensively decorate the dorm room and make your space private, consider hanging our India Rose curtain panels to partition the room. Here is a quick tutorial on how to divide the room with curtains. Consider hanging the curtains right by your bed, to amplify the “cozy factor”.
