Hitting the ripe old age of 30 is kind of a big deal. It’s one birthday that comes with a lot of pressure. Or at least, that’s how I feel about it, anyway. 

Your twenties are sold as a time for growth, development and adjustment, while your 30s are meant to be a time where you’re settled and have nailed peak adulting. But, if, like me, you’re not really there yet, it can feel hella scary. 

I turn 30 pretty soon and I’m already feeling the pressure. A big part of that, for me personally, is ensuring my home looks and feels like a grown up space. 

So, I reached out to my friends who are already in the thirties gang and asked them for their go-to home buys that make adulting easier, and their homes a place they’re actually proud of.
