55. A chic platform bed you'll always be excited to climb into

Modern Platform Bed, available at The Inside, $1,399

The Inside is a furniture company that makes fun, chic patterns and prints as affordable as a standard beige option. Each piece is made to order, and there's a nice selection of affordable pieces with prints from names like Clare V and Scalamandre.

Of every piece of furniture I've gotten as an adult, this one is my all-time favorite. It's unique, personable, and makes my room feel a bit more special. My advice for newcomers would be to order a swatch to check the color in person first (the images are often 3D rendered to cut more costs from the process) — or start with a pillow. —Mara Leighton, reporter
