One of our predesigned "Themed Collection" dorm rooms. A layered, more designed dorm room for comfort, ease, and a sense of home. This is where the space begins to deepen. Softer textures, better sleep, warmer light, and a more intentional layout all come together to create a room that feels considered and calming. It’s not just functional. it’s supportive. Each room is guided by your selected Themed Dorm and refined with additional layers that elevate both the look and the experience of living in it.
Best for: those who want their room to feel settled, comfortable, and quietly elevated from the very first day.

This makes an incredible gift for your student. Every one of these products is from trusted vendors, readily available, quick ship and highly rated for value and quality. This is a collaborative design experience. We work together to shape a space that reflects not only how the room should look, but how it should feel to live in it.

Welcome to my newest baby, Dorm Room Chic!
I am so excited to share this innovative product with you. It was born in the time of one of the biggest transitions of my life as a parent. I will never forget how unprepared I was (logistically and emotionally) when I took my one and only daughter and dropped her at UC Davis. It was so bad, and she was as usual such a trooper. I know it is hard to imagine, but there was no Amazon and I couldn't even get into the parking lot at the Target! Everything was sold out. I ugly cried on a 7 hour drive home, feeling I had abandoned her. Dramatic, I know, but it really felt that way. I had deep and meaningful cry session every day for weeks--especially when I was packing needed supplies up and shipping them to her. Since that troubled day in 2004, I have helped countless friends and clients be a bit more prepared when their children head off into the future, always thinking, there has to be a better way to "package" these moves. By the way, when my beautiful mother took me off to college in 1982 it involved a trip to the hallway linen closet and a stop at Macy's to select a new comforter and pillow sham!
When moved to a brand new coast from Los Angeles, CA (where I built my interior & staging brand) to beautiful Pennsylvania, I found myself surrounded by incredible universities and colleges. I knew it was time. I took a certification course in E-Design and learned how to build these shoppable Inspiration Boards and Dorm Room Chic (and Little Black Dress Rooms) was born! Each Design Board comes with a dorm essentials board and list embedded with links everything from organization, accessories, comfort items and endless options. There are even things that you haven't even thought of on our exhaustive lists. It's a personalization menu; you choose the things you need and leave the rest, or come back to it when you are ready.
I can't wait for you to see how easy we make this process. Once you purchase, you receive a Digital PDF download and can start shopping for your new room and all the things you need! We have done all the design work and handled the countless hours of product sourcing. (shopping for one item can take hours!) We've read the reviews and hand selected each item, and because these are NOT affiliate links that pay us, we have selected the best products for you!
There are customizing options in all of our Dorm Room Chic designs, and you have the luxury of ordering everything on your time frame, and using your credit card...get ready to rack up those miles and rebates for yourself! You're going to love it!
*If you want a bit more designer- hands-on approach for your project, you can upgrade into a more comprehensive/custom package, just ask. Custom rooms are available, on a limited basis.
