In fact, I clearly remember not being the only one of my friends who consistently suffered from having absolutely nothing to wear. My closet was filled with clothes mind you, and so was theirs. But the problem was it was filled with College-attire. ASU attire to be exact which if you were a Sun Devil you very well know consists of jeans, flip flops, wife beaters and maybe a pair of ASU shorts or two. Not exactly the kind of thing you could show up to the office in.<\/p>\n<p>It was then that I realized that building a true &#8220;grown-up&#8221; wardrobe was something that happened over time, not overnight. But if you aren&#8217;t armed with tons of disposable income, as of course most College-grads aren&#8217;t, there are a few essentials to own that will make your life that much easier. And, since you&#8217;ll be hanging on to these items for years and years, I&#8217;d definitely consider making a good investment in classic pieces that will last.<\/p>\n<p><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3108 pk-lqip pk-lazyload\"  title=\"bcbgmaxazria_black_pants\"  src=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/22050608\/bcbgmaxazria_black_pants-80x107.jpg\"  alt=\"bcbgmaxazria_black_pants\"  width=\"180\"  height=\"240\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 180px) 100vw, 180px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/22050608\/bcbgmaxazria_black_pants.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/22050608\/bcbgmaxazria_black_pants.jpg 180w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/22050608\/bcbgmaxazria_black_pants-80x107.jpg 80w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/22050608\/bcbgmaxazria_black_pants-60x80.jpg 60w\" ><\/p>\n<p>A pair of black slacks is definitely the first thing to invest in.
