How to Get the Boho Aesthetic in Your Dorm Room for $185

As the biggest piece of furniture in your dorm room, your bed can set the whole vibe of your space. That’s why your bedding is a great place to start if you want to achieve the boho aesthetic. This sage green comforter evokes an earthy vibe, which is key to the boho look.

The comforter may be the focus of your room, but this orange textured pillow will stand out beautifully against the green comforter.

What says “boho” more than fringe macrame wall hangings? Macrame art is a prominent part of the boho look, and displaying it on your wall will add a beautiful yet still neutral focal point to your room.

If you want your room to feel like a California desert, these wall prints will transport you there. The abstract lines and shapes give a whimsical feel that’s central to the boho aesthetic. I especially love these prints because the warm tones with the pops of blue and green will work with most color schemes.

Have I mentioned “warm tones” enough yet? Well, I’ll do it again, because it’s that important to embrace warm tones within this aesthetic. That means LED lights are out, and organic-feeling lighting is in. This salt lamp is a great nightlight or reading light for those late evenings spent studying … or, you know, watching endless #OOTD TikToks during festival season.

Yes, I had to include another macrame piece in this list. These baskets are both practical and cute, and allow you to organize your everyday needs in an aesthetically pleasing way. Bonus: Their neutral color makes them easy to coordinate with any theme, in case you’re blending your boho style with your roommate’s tastes.

Plants are key to the boho vibe — and no, they do not need to be real. This hanging faux plant will bring dimension to your dorm in all its bohemian glory. You can add one to any corner of your room to make it feel like you have fresh air circulating through your space — even if it’s just because you’re blasting your AC.
