Okay so as any one who follows me on twitter knows, I’ve moved into a studio flat for my 2nd year at uni and so I thought I’d give a little tour of my own place. As I’m a 2nd year student I got a place in privately owned accommodation rather than university owned and the reason why I stayed in accommodation rather than renting a house like many others is that I like to have my own space and the accommodation was much cheaper than renting a flat.
I have a double bed which is right up against these huge and wonderful windows (A lifesaver when trying to wake myself up in the morning) with a TV on the wall and there’s also a bedside table which you cant really see in this photo. As you can see I like having my cushions and throws on my bed and you probably recognize my cream throw as the background to most of my images.
Here’s my kitchen area which has plenty of cupboard space and you can see I’ve put my cacti in the middle just to brighten up the place with some plants.
This area is my pride and joy and these are two IKEA clothes racks which I put up myself (still slightly proud as i’m really awful at any diy stuff) and they hold nearly all my clothes as the built in wardrobe just wasn’t big enough. My shoe collection also sits underneath the bottom bar so it’s definitely my favourite area, plus can you tell what my favourite colour to wear is?
I also put up the mirror (which I’m even more impressed at because I didn’t manage to smash it by accident) and I have a small desk which holds my printer, stationary and also my makeup collection. I also have a very empty pin board, hopefully i’ll start filling that up soon.

It took me so long for the DIY things I’m actually awful 🙈 Don’t want to think about when I’m older and I have to buy furniture! x
What a great little space! I shared a flat with uni friends & I probably would’ve been better going it alone too, the people were never home so I was left with all this space in a place that wasn’t that nice. Fingers crossed for your studies.

Your uni dorm looks so fancy! When I went to prep college in my country, our dorm is mostly shared and we’re banned from cooking so no stove either.
Over in the UK we usually get our own bedrooms but I purposely paid extra to get a studio room with a kitchen in as I didn’t want to live with other people! Usually common areas would be shared between around 6 people. Although we pretty much always have to cook for ourselves!
