Dorm Shopping Guide: Desktop Accessories
It seems like once we hit August everyone's mindset automatically shifts to back-to-school. This year is a little different because I'm starting my freshman year of college! (Read about where I'm headed to school this fall here). I leave in about four weeks and I know a bunch of schools head back earlier, so it's crunch time for getting all your dorm stuff together. Caroline, Frannie, Nicole and I decided to team up for a series of posts as we get ready to head to school this fall. Today we are each covering a different category of the dorm and sharing some inspiration for décor and organization. All of their posts will be linked at the bottom of this post!
The desk is a very important part of the room because it's where you do your schoolwork and you need to be productive there. I think it's important that there's not too much clutter on top of the desk and that everything has a function. It's easy to get carried away adding little trinkets and knick knacks that look cute, but if they don't serve much of a purpose they end up taking up space in your shoebox of a dorm room. All of these desk accessories are very neutral and simple so they can be incorporated into your dorm no matter what color scheme you have decided on!

I couldn't talk about desk supplies without highlighting some of my favorite planners (they even deserved their own graphic). Although I stopped using my planner this year, I've seen so many cute ones for this school year that make me want to go back to using one! I love having cute notebooks and notepads on hand because I seem to have a million running lists of various things. I picked out some cute (and functional!) planners and notebooks to keep you on track during this school year.
