Summer is my favorite season. I grew up by the beach in Rhode Island, so I will always gravitate toward beachy coastal decor — even in the dead of winter. Bringing that bright and summery feeling to my college space helps me keep my energy up when it’s cold and dark out. I specifically find myself looking at a lot of boho woven pieces. 

This beautiful new Target Table Lamp with Woven Base and Woven Shade by Threshold designed with Studio McGee is just what I have in mind. The $70 corded rattan lamp is 14.8×12.2×12.2 inches, and it radiates major beach cabana vibes. The scalloped bottom of the lampshade is giving flower or tropical plant. 

People on TikTok are also raving about this lamp. User @doppiodreamss showed off the charming Target find to followers in a TIkTok video that’s received more than 37,000 views. “omg I NEEED! ❤️,” replied one commenter. 

Another responded, “Omg thats adorable!! On a little vanity it would look gorgeous!” I agree — I think this lamp would be perfect on a vanity/desk. In fact, I personally would style this with my jewelry stand and perfume display on my vanity. 

You could also set it on a classic bedside table, styled with a trinket dish, a book, and a candle (if you’re allowed to have one in your college space, of course). 

BRB, dreaming of this lamp.
