This practical wall-mounted organizer has so many functions! Use it to organize shoes, scarves, and odds and ends you need. It has a metal hook so you can easily display it on the back of your door, or dare we say a nail in the wall (check with your RA though, because you don't wanna risk that security deposit).

It's one thing that I already included this chic backpack months ago in our laundry bags buying guide, but it's another that it's currently 20% off — I'm obsessed. Whether you pick the white or black version, it looks super designer en route to the downstairs laundry area of your dorm. Love the shoulder strap and san-serif font.

Keep your jewelry safe and secure or zhuzh up your bathroom soap display with these organically-textured trays. The asymmetric designs are available in chalky white or beige to bring all the vanilla girl vibes to your dorm or small apartment.

I know it might sound a li'l silly, but if you're feeling homesick at college, a nice warm bath with cozy bath towels might just be what you need to feel comforted. H&M carries its own bath and body line, so after a hard day of studying, you can rest and relax in the tub. FYI, if you're a H&M member, you can get these for $19.80.

Price: Was $36.99, Now $29.60 (save $7.39)
Size (in.) W71 x L79
Material: Shell: Polyester; Lining: Polypropylene

Your dorm might be the first place you've decorated, but that doesn't mean you need to stick to basic homeware. I love the feminine edge on this sage green shower curtain. The grommets at the top make for easy hanging (FYI, shower rings are sold separately), and the water-repellent material will stop your bathroom floor from flooding.

Price: Was $20.99, Now $16.80 (save $4.19)
Size: Fits mattresses up to 15 inches thick
Material: 100% cotton

Granted it's not the most exciting thing in the H&M dorm section, but cheap fitted sheets are essential (at least for me anyway). Student life is hard enough as it is, without taking part in the bed-making Olympics (P.S.: you won't get extra credit for it). So make your life easier with these elasticated accessories. While white is classic, I'd choose the black option if you wear self-tanner or eat in bed.

Price: Was $36.99, Now $29.60 (save $7.39)
Size (in.): 51 x 67
Material: Acrylic 65%, Polyester 23%, Wool 12%

Dorm heating can be a li'l hit-and-miss. So rather than investing in a heater (which might not be permitted in some dorms), invest in this wool-blend throw. No shade thrown at H&M Home, but this looks wayyyy more high-end. And the dark mustard yellow is giving all the fall vibes.

Price: Was $67.99, Now $54.40 (save $13.59 at H&M)
Size: Twin
Material: 100% cotton

Rid yourself of those scratchy sheets, and replace them with these buttery beauties that will keep you cool even with exam and assignment stress. What's amazing about this 250-thread-count duvet cover is that it fastens at the foot with concealed metal snap fasteners. Yes to no buttons or plastic poppers! It's available in four colors, so there's even something suitable for a boys' dorm room. I recommend the Pigeon Blue.
