Beds are under estimated - if you think about it, a bed is the biggest piece of furniture in a bedroom, and in most rooms - in particular small rooms like mine, they have a massive impact. I wanted my bed to tie in all the colors of my room - white, blue, and orange. I also knew that I wanted to have a white duvet cover (I already had this one) as I loved how sophisticated and mature white bedding looks, so I decided to bring in color through cushions and a throw. If you are wanting to change the color scheme of your room without making any drastic changes, purchasing a few cushions with color and texture, and maybe a throw of some sort can really transform white bedding. 

White Duvet Cover: Sheridan
Cream, Blue, and White Cushion: Freedom Furniture
Fairy Lights: Typo (Cotton On)
Blue Throw: Freedom Furniture

Hi lovelies, I hope you are having a fantastic week so far. Another installment in my Bedroom Makeover series, and this one I'm particularly exited about. My parents were kind enough to buy me a new dresser (in agreement that this was the last piece of furniture they were to ever buy me before I move out), and I absolutely love it. I choose a dresser from Freedom Furniture in a light wood, and it finally fits all my folded clothes! I've tried a minimalist approach towards what I keep on it, so there isn't as much as my previous What's On My Dresser post. I much prefer having less though - I feel it looks tidier and more mature. To see a full image of the dresser on the Freedom Furniture website click here.

Hi all! As promised, another blog post in my "Room Makeover" series - click HERE to see the other post where I share my bedroom inspiration. 

I've have picked up a few bits here and there, so I decided to share with you what I have purchased for my room! It's all starting to come together now, especially the color scheme (which is blue, white, and orange if you hadn't guessed).

I picked up this cheeky sausage dog cushion from Freedom Furniture. I'm using this cushion as my "color inspiration" - white, blue, and orange. I liked how it was clean and crisp; no fluffy tassels or texture to it, which is a nice balance to the other cushions on my bed, and the textured throw.

Next, I found this beautiful dark blue throw which went perfectly with the cushion and the "beachy", not too feminine theme.

I found these 2 cushions lying about in my house - a cream cushion with white detailing, and a woven blue cushion. The three together look amazing.

I also changed my colorful duvet cover to a simple, textured white one (which we already had).

This is honestly everything I could want in a frame - rustic, beachy... just perfect. I love the wooden, over sized  frame, and I think that the brown wooden areas against the white wood makes it look really unique and aged (... in a good way). 

As you can see everything is slowly, but surely coming together and the colors are all looking cohesive, but not too matchy. I've took my desk out of my room as it unnecessarily took up so much room. 

Make sure to follow me on Bloglovin to stay updated on new blog posts, however, if you do not have a Bloglovin account you can follow my Instagram (which I created a week ago!) and I will update you on there. Love you all!
