4. Gem Speaker ($40): We’re loving the color and shape of these very special speakers. They’ll help you transition from work to study to party.
5. File Box: Mint storage FTW. Keep all those important docs contained with this pastel organizer. It’ll look great hanging out on those above-the-desk wall shelves.
6. Pencil Case: We love that this one is optical and arty. And the message is a good mantra to practice come the inevitable late afternoon crash.
7. Sticky Notes ($10): We love cacti print on our bods and in our homes, so this cute + prickly notepad is a must for any desktop.

11. Protea Sleeve ($60): Laptop accessories be notoriously dorky. We’re happy to have found an exception with this funky floral print.
12. Notebook ($12): “I have too many notebooks,” said no one EVER. This DMX-inspired one is great for any word nerd, rap music fan, or aspiring poet.
