REAL SIMPLE, the #1 women's lifestyle magazine, shares the secrets to mastering "life 101"--from home to work to relationships--in this must-have, illustrated handbook to help young adults navigate their busy, new lives. Right after graduation, the questions start piling up. And they just keep on coming throughout your 20s and beyond: How do I find a job that I love--and, um that pays? What should I wear to the interview? And speaking of clothes, where do I put them when my apartment doesn't even have a closet? REAL SIMPLE created The Real Simple Guide to Real Life: Adulthood Made Easy to answer all of those questions--and so many more. Original essays from best-selling young writers and practical advice from expert contributors simplify (and demystify) landing a job, finding an apartment, decorating on the cheap, cooking for one, dressing for work, organizing a small space, picking a mentor, writing a thank-you note (yes, they're still a thing) --plus all the answers you need to deal with 401(k) s, kitchen fails, epic hangovers, messy roommates, and even messier breakups.
