My place.

In a short month, I’ll be in my very first apartment. I cannot express my excitement.

You do realize that means I’ll have a kitchen. Yeah, you heard me. A kitchen!

Ok, so I’m sharing it with two other people, but they happen to be fantastic people my own age so this is gonna be great.

Let’s talk decorating.

With the fact “Laura is a college student” in mind, please try to envision my budget. Not big. Think crappy couches, your mom’s broken wooden spoon, a comforter with an indistinguishable color, curtains from the eighties...

Even so, a girl can dream. I’m gonna hope that the argument “I got a scholarship and this apartment is cheaper than the other one, I’m saving you money” will work on my parents. Ok, on my dad.

For starters, I’m going to give all white bedding a try. I think I've decided on this duvet from Pottery Barn.

Why all white? Lately I’ve been attracted to these sort of looks....

I mean, are you seeing what I’m seeing? It’s so open. So versatile. So clean. 

Of course, I just found this one from Urban Outfitters that has a great price tag and is super cute and NOT white...
