Dorm Room Decorating Inspired By Blair Waldorf

Blair Waldorf

Now that it is the middle of the summer, it’s time for us to start pondering about how we will decorate our apartment or dorm room for the upcoming semester. Need some inspiration? We’re here to help!

On season 3 of Gossip Girl, our favorite Upper East Siders began college (some of them, anyway) and even the Queen Bee, Blair Waldorf, moved into a dorm room. If you love the way Blair Waldorf dresses, then her interior decorating taste will not disappoint you.  Her dorm room does a great job of showcasing her style. Read on for tips on outfitting your dorm to look like Blair’s.

1. Blair’s Dorm Room

Blair Waldorf's Dorm Room

Blair’s dorm room is similar to her room at home in that she uses the finest and most elegant materials and accessories.  She even uses wallpaper, which is rarely allowed in dorm rooms. Although Blair’s exact dorm room is a bit impractical for college students, it is still a great source of inspiration. If you use bits and pieces of her room as inspiration, you can design an elegant room that fits your style and budget.  Some ideas include:

  • Use cool, dark colors such as navy blue, deep purple, black, and even splashes of silver.
  • Buy satin bedding, which will give off the same sheen as Blair’s silk bedding, but is much more budget-friendly.
  • Include a portrait of Audrey Hepburn, Blair’s idol.
  • Don’t use too many patterns; think simple and elegant.
  • Buy room accessories that look tasteful and luxurious.

2. Bedding Examples

Blair Bedding

Blue Satin Comforter- Touch of Class, Purple Satin Sheets- Amazon,  Silver Throw Blanket- Target,  Throw Pillow- Overstock.com

3. Examples of Room Accessories

Other Things To Include

Faux Silk Purple Curtains- Target,  Chandelier Wall Decal- Target, Alarm Clock- Bed Bath and Beyond,  Majestic Velvet Ruffle Chair- Urban Outfitters,  Audrey Hepburn Poster- Delia’s

What do you think?

Does Blair Waldorf’s dorm room inspire you?  Will you use her dorm room as inspiration for your own room?  Did this post get you to start thinking about how you will decorate your dorm room? We want to know what you think, so be sure to leave a comment!

    Love this article because I’m trying to imitate the style of Blair’s dorm room for my bedroom. What I really do want is her satin comforter though, it’s an amazing colour. I know you posted an example but do you have any others? Because I just really want that colour, and funnily enough, even the exact one that they used in the show from kumikookoon.com in sapphire colour doesn’t quite match the picture.

    Does anyone know where to get Vanessa’s bedspread and curtains she has in her dorm room on Gossip Girl? I am in love, but haven’t had any luck finding anything online. Any insight would be great..
