I’ve written about post-grad essentials and items to toss, but I’ve never really examined my own wardrobe. Now that I’ve been out of college for more than two years, I think I have a sense of which items I wear often and which I really don’t.
Read on for things everyone should have in their post-grad wardrobe, which is basically the best things in my post-grad wardrobe that I wear all of the time.
Lately, I’ve been really reflecting on my wardrobe. I do this often, but now as I am nearing graduation I’ve gone over it with an extra scrutiny. I’ve pulled items I haven’t worn in a long time to the top of the piles and I started to really decide whether or not I want them or not.
This has also been a time of getting rid of clothes and downsizing. There’s been a creation of “the bag” (which I explain here) in the hall closet of our house and my friends and I have begun to fill it with shirts, dresses and other clothes we seriously don’t wear or don’t need to take with us when we move back in and embark on our post-grad life.
I’ve also been on the prowl for some post-grad wardrobe essentials, including lots of new tops that are casual enough to wear every day but nice enough to potentially wear to work (should I be lucky enough to get a job!). And so, this post-grad wardrobe guide post was born.
