Urban Outfitters furniture and home accessories are particularly brilliant for teenagers and students. Or, in fact, for anyone (regardless of age) who’s looking for fun, colourful furnishings at very reasonable prices.
Our neighbour’s daughter will be off to University in September. To think that when we moved into the house and first met her she was just 8 years old. The years have flown and she is about to “fly the nest” too. And my eldest nephew has just moved into a shared flat for his second year at college – another rite of passage.
These are big changes for everyone, and that also means expenses – big and small – for young people living away from home for the first time. And, of course, for parents helping them on their way.
The good news, for parents and offspring alike, is that Urban Outfitters are currently running a special promotion on their furniture and homewares. There’s 20% off everything this Bank Holiday weekend when you shop online – use the code BONUS at the checkout to get the discount, which applies from today, Friday 23rd August until Monday 26th.
There are lots of excellent value purchases to be made, and in particular I’ve always thought that Urban Outfitters bedding and rugs are especially good – great patterns and colours at great prices. Here are my top picks of furniture and home textiles to add comfort, character and colour to rented flats and student accommodation:

I quite fancy this quilt myself. Just as long as I don’t have to stay up all night writing essays …
