Dorm extravaganza

I shamefully spent close to $2,500 on dorm decor and essentials. On my behalf you have to buy as if you're moving out (would like to see how much I spend when I actually move out).

I still have A LOT to get but these are my essentials. The others I'll figure out when I get to school.

      When you find out about your roommate, talk to them and find out if you guys want a theme and what items you're willing to share! You don't want to buy double so figure out what you'll buy and what your roommate will buy.

      Sorry if this ended up being a post that is common throughout the blogging/youtube community, but i love these types of post!
