With Mother’s Day and graduation right around the corner, you’re going to have to start searching for gifts now to avoid sending your mom a “creative” handmade gift for the second year in a row.  We recommend starting your search with Lawrence’s, across the parking lot from Central Market.  Some familiar designers include Jon Hart, Vera Bradley, Stephanie Ann, Christopher Radko, Lollia and Kendra Scott.

Lawrence’s also recently started carrying Zoubaby rain boots.  Not only will these babies be much-needed in the upcoming onslaught of spring showers, but you can personalize each pair with an embroidered monogram!

Dorm Room Must-Haves

Looking back on my fabulous freshman experience, I wish I’d had more chic bedding and accessories in my dorm room. I’d like to share my wonderful finds for girls about to start their own four-year (sometimes a few more—no big) journey.

Bedding:

One of the best ways to decorate your room is to coordinate bedding with your roommate. You can design and customize your own bedding at PB Teen. Choose from a selection of duvet covers, sheet sets, quilts, decorative pillows and more to create the bedding of your choice.

Organization:

If you think you can easily cram everything you need or want into your room, sorry, it’s not going to happen. That’s why one of my favorite finds is this organizer from PB Teen. It fits of your essentials like hair drier, flat iron and products perfectly, allowing you to save serious space on your desk or makeup stand.

These pop-up paisley storage bins are a must-have! With bright paisley prints, these collapsible bins are perfect for girls looking to add a punch of color while also saving space. They come in purple, navy, pink and light blue.

Lighting:

As for lighting, check out  this lamp at Target. With a black-and-white print shade, this modern lamp coordinates with any décor and is perfect to have at your bedside or on your desk.

Accessories:

A chic magnetic board is the perfect way to control your clutter and allows you to keep track of your likes, to-do’s and photos.  Post notes for your roommate or photos with the fab magnets included. I’m mildly obsessed with this one, but there are a few adorable patterns to choose from.

These sassy pillows are excellent reminders for incoming freshman. It’s your first time to live on your own and not have mom around nagging you about the little things in life. You’ll find various phrases such as “Clean Your Room,” “No Whining,” “Go To The Gym” (a reminder to stave off the well-known urban legend of the “freshman 15”) and many more. These fun pillows will make your friends laugh and add some spunk to your space.

Space Saver:

This cool over-the-door door hook consists of 10 functional and stylish hooks, allowing you to save space without sacrificing style. Trust me when I say any space saver is worth the investment.
