So, here’s the thing: Your hot girl summer daydreams won’t be a reality for the second year in a row. While it’s a huge bummer having the heat but none of the beach, there’s still a fix to your tropical fantasies: a hot girl summer-themed room makeover.
To prep for a summer to remember (well, at least indoors), here are a couple of decor for your home HQ that’ll make even Megan Thee Stallion proud.

Landline phones might be a thing of the past, but if your folks are still holding onto that relic, you might as well change it up with a lip phone à la a Bratz doll. This touch-tone telephone will make even the most tedious of bureaucratic follow-up calls feel like you’re part of Cloe, Yasmin and company.

This portable shell lamp—available in iridescent pink and white—checks three things off our list: 1) It gives off “Birth of Venus” realness, 2) it’s an homage to your ongoing mermaid phase and 3) it works as a night light if the dark still gives you the spooks. (We’re not judging.)
A peach doormat

Time to ditch those boring “welcome” mats. Whether you get this as a nudge to Bieber’s or Timmy C’s peaches, this doormat makes for a cheeky preview to the rest of your summer lair.

Reminisce about your forgotten outdoor summer days with a tapestry that looks straight out of the sand. By the time you get your sweet, sweet freedom, you can probably use this under the sun, too.
A faux neon light

If you can’t shell out hard-earned cash for a legit neon light, a LED light will do the trick. With choices from bananas and popsicle sticks to sunglasses-wearing llamas, these brightly colored lights will illuminate your space like a ’60s ice cream parlor.
