Personal Shopper: Dorm bedding for Meghan's second college career

Meghan S. wrote, "I'm 25 and have found myself starting over. I'm a technology teacher and was cut from my position last school year. I've been unemployed for a year and to no avail I'm still jobless. I'm selling all of my things and starting over. I'm headed off to school in the spring to earn my masters degree. I'll be living in a dorm at the age of 25, This is not where I saw myself at 25 but I am in desperate need of dorm bedding that fits a twin xl bed. Since there's not much you can do with a dorm the bedding part seems the most important. I want my bedding to convey a trendy yet fun and relaxed look. I love comfort and want that to be depicted through my bedding as well. I had a favorite bed set many years ago that had a double sided comforter one side was black and white with a bunch of words all over it, like dream, smile, laugh, etc. The other was black and white with yellow smileys. I liked the word side the best. It was made by Joe Boxer. I'd be game for something with color, but I'm not looking for anything overly girly like tons of floral, and I'm not into the retro shapes and patterns I've seen. I love Outblush and I always see you coming up with great personal shopper ideas. I was wondering if you might have a solution for me, and maybe even cute accessories that would be great in a dorm. Thanks, Meghan"
