Walking into your college dorm room is exciting, but it also might be... underwhelming. With white walls, boring flooring, and basic furniture, it’s a completely blank slate. It takes work to make a dorm room feel like home, and more importantly, it takes color! Colorful dorm bedding and decor is the easiest way to show off your personality in your dorm room.

Whether you want your whole room to reflect your favorite color, you’re ready to show off some school spirit with your college’s colors, or you’ve coordinated with your roommate to design the ultimate dorm, it’s easier than you might think to make your room #DormGoals.

Creating a dorm room that you actually want to hang out in doesn’t have to be hard. When you choose a bedding and bath bundle to build your room around, it’s easy to stock up on essentials without breaking the bank, giving you more wiggle room to finish decorating.

Here are some Insta-inspired dorm room ideas, and our take on how to recreate them. We’ll show you:

• Dorm room looks in all your favorite colors
• Colorful bedding packages to help you stick to your budget while going all out
• Dorm decor and accent pieces in every color of the rainbow

Seeing Red

Go Bold with Bright Red Bedding + Neutral Accents inspired by @bedding_by_nerrisa

Red and navy is a classic dorm decor combination -- they’re autumn colors, which is perfect for the academic year, and they can be incorporated into girls’ rooms and guys’ rooms alike. We love the bold colors in this look offset by neutral accent pieces to keep the room from feeling too busy or overwhelming. After all, at the end of the day, even the boldest of dorm rooms is a place to unwind and rest!

We’ve Got the Blues

Fun Blue Dorm Decor inspired by @itsallforvsco

It’s not quite ocean views, but it’s close. Blue decor is well-known for creating a calm environment where you can unwind and relax, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be fun, too. Incorporate a variety of shades of blue to add some interest to your dorm room decor while keeping your color scheme as relaxing as lying out on the beach.

The Royal Treatment

Pretty Purple Dorm Decor Fit for a Queen

Hear ye, hear ye! Purple is the color of royalty, and it’s also a great option for designing a dorm room that really shows off your personality. Deep jewel tones, intricate tapestry designs, and textured accents give this room plenty of visual interest. Plus, you can feel good about splurging on royalty-worthy dorm room bedding when you purchase it in a bundle -- getting your bed and bath supplies together is an easy way to save a little money without sacrificing quality.

Thinking Pink

Girly Pink Dorm Decor inspired by @micah.leia

Our favorite Harvard Law grad Elle Woods would think making your dorm room anything other than pink is seriously disturbed. Add a little feminine flair to your college dorm room with colorful pink details. Your dorm room is a reflection of your personality, and if you consider yourself a girly girl, pink dorm decor is a no brainer!

Black and White and Gold All Over

Striking black and white dorm decor inspired by @tessyla1

Some people shy away from black and white dorm decor because they’re afraid it will look boring, but that’s just not true! Sticking to a simple color palette -- like black and white with metal accents thrown in -- opens up tons of possibilities for decorating your dorm room. Go bold with mismatched prints and textures -- since everything is still the same colors, your dorm room decor will still look like it belongs together in the end.
