Picking out the right bedding for your dorm room isn’t just about finding something practical, it’s a way to express your creativity. College comes with plenty of opportunities to be independent, one of which is being able to style your bed how you want and with what you want. 

If you’re looking for something colorful but calming, you can’t go wrong by choosing bedding with a floral pattern. At times, college can be overwhelming and stressful, but floral patterns? They’re a sure way to bring some serenity into your life no matter how out of control things feel.

If you want to turn your college dorm room into an everyday oasis, these are some of our favorite floral patterned comforters and pillows that we think you’ll love. 

Comforters

The easiest place to start when picking out bedding is with comforters. These gorgeous floral-patterned comforters will definitely catch your eye. Once you find one that speaks to you, the rest will fall into place. 

This Enza Superior College Comforter sets the bar pretty high for all other floral-patterned comforters. Its stunning purple and indigo colors stand out against its solid white background, making it perfect for anyone who likes floral patterns and gravitates toward something classy. 

The color and style of this comforter makes it extremely versatile. There’s no need to buy a new one when your tastes change. Instead, spicing things up with different throw pillows or or sheets can change the entire vibe of your bedding. If you like purple and floral patterns, you’ll definitely make good use out of this comforter for years down the line. 

Those who opt for the Enza Superior College Comforter will likely enjoy these matching sheets. Designed with small blue flowers, these sheets are the perfect way to add more flare to your bed by choosing something more interesting than plain white sheets. Their simplicity, however, won’t compete with the extravagance of the Enza comforter. 

Even those who don’t have the Enza comforter but are partial to floral patterns may find that these sheets fit their desired aesthetic very well. Regardless of what your comforter looks like, if you’re a fan of floral patterns, there’s no denying that these sheets are extremely cute. 

Another one of our favorites, the Floral Watercolor Comforter is perfect for people who have an artsy vibe and a soft spot for floral patterns. You don’t need us to tell you that this bed set is just gorgeous to look at. Its navy, pink and yellow color combo is sophisticated yet calming, and its watercolor effect printing to create lavish flowers checks the box for creative expression. 

There’s no shortage of bedding with this seven piece set, which also comes with two shams, two euro shams, and two decorative pillows. Not only will your bed be filled with colorful flowers, you’ll also have plenty of pillows to go along with them.

The College Classic Twin XL Dina comforter is perfect for anyone who wants to incorporate floral patterns into their dorm room but wants to stick with a pink color palette. This bedding has an intricate design that will add flare to your room without stealing the spotlight. If pink is your favorite color, this bedding will fit in seamlessly with the other decorations and pillows you have in your room. 

But aside from just looks, this bedding is also extremely practical. The comforter’s brushed microfiber wrapped around polyester fill makes it warm and durable—two must-haves for the perfect bedding.

There’s nothing more soothing than white bedding—it's soft, calming, and if it’s the Superior College Twin XL Comforter in Jasmine, it’s also very sophisticated. That’s right, this bedding is proof that choosing white bedding does not mean choosing bedding that is boring. 

This comforter uses a channel stitch to incorporate both a floral pattern and a unique texture. Not to mention, its polyester fill is bound to keep you warm all year long.

The versatility of this bedding is also a huge plus. Regardless of if your tastes or living situation change down the line, you’ll always be able to find a way to incorporate this comforter in your bedroom. 

Since white goes with everything--yes, literally everything--there’s no limit to how you can decorate your room. Incorporating other colors into the mix with wall art, sheets, blankets, and throw pillows can create a completely different look. Want something sleek? Opt for blacks and greys. Looking for something calming? Choose pastels. 

If you have a soft spot for blue, you’ll probably gravitate toward the College Classic Twin XL Comforter in Raine. This bedding is great for someone who likes intricate patterns but isn’t a hardcore fan of floral patterns. 

The comforter’s floral pattern has a geometric look to it, which is perfect for those who want their bedding to look interesting but don't want realistic images of flowers. Plus, its reversible side means you can choose to incorporate less of the pattern and more of your favorite light blue color instead.

Whatever look you’re going for in your dorm room, there’s a good chance you’ll be able to establish it with the Betsey Johnson 7 Piece Dorm Room Bedding Bundle. 

Designed by — yes, you guessed it — the one and only Betsey Johnson, this bedding meshes  several patterns together to create a classy, sophisticated, and edgy look—all at the same time. Its black and white striped comforter with pink and blue flowers come together to create a bedspread that makes a bold, but gorgeous, statement.

The set also includes a floral sham and a 3-piece black and white striped sheet set. If you still feel like your bedding doesn’t have enough patterns, don’t worry. The set also comes with a plush cheetah-patterned throw and a matching square accent pillow. 

People may have the misconception that opting for floral bedding automatically means choosing something colorful and unsophisticated, but this is certainly not the case with the Monika Strigel Serendipity Black Bed in a Bag. 

There’s a lot to say about this bed set, but let’s start with it’s unconventional use of neutral colors that creates a beautiful floral pattern. Many might be quick to choose colorful bedding, but there are actually several advantages to sticking with something neutral. Not only is this bedding easier to match with artwork, decorations, and even your roommate’s comforter, it also places more emphasis on the floral design. 

Speaking of versatility, the Monika Strigel Serendipity Black Bedding comes in a tote bag, allowing you to take any and all of this bedding with you wherever you go—a picnic, the beach, and even next year’s dorm room. In addition to the intricate floral duvet cover, this bed set includes two matching pillow shams and a throw pillow. 

What’s more, every purchase of the Monika Strigel Serendipity Black Bed in a Bag pays the artist who designed it. This bedding establishes a creative vibe not only by the way it looks, but by supporting creativity on a global scale.

Decorative Pillows

You can’t have a well decorated dorm room without pillows that make a statement. Go the extra mile to incorporate flowers in your dorm room with some of our top picks for floral-patterned pillows. For those who don’t have a floral bedspread, these pillows are a great way to make your bed a little more interesting, all while staying true to what you like. 

Let’s face it, a bed looks empty without a throw pillow. What’s great about throw pillows is that they allow you to branch away from the pattern you’ve chosen for your bed spread and pick something that expresses your style a little more specifically. 

This is definitely the case with the Modern Tropical Blush Zen Lotus Throw Pillow, which is sure to give you peaceful vibes every time you look at it. This pillow comes in a variety of sizes, whether you want it to add to the pillows you already have or take center focus, you’re bound to find a way to add it seamlessly to the bedding you’ve already chosen.

Dorm rooms aren’t just for sleeping and studying, they’re also great places where you can chill with your friends. The Iveta Abolina Feather Roll Floor Pillow is a great way to fit an extra guest into your room. In fact, it may even make your room the go place for hangouts. This pillow will also come in handy when you’re on the go. You’ll definitely get good use out of it during movie nights in a friend’s room and outdoor study sessions with your classmates. Not to mention, its pattern is simply adorable.
