Some basics and also some not so basics to help you out.

You need more than one pair of sheets and more than one towel.

Change your damn sheets. At the minimum you should change your sheets twice a month, but if you're a germaphobe then do it weekly. Clean sheets not only feel amazing, but they cut down on allergens and dead skin cells that cling to the fabrics that could potentially keep you from being healthy. Wash your bath towels weekly too, and please, have more than one — especially if you frequently have guests.

Know your suit size and shirt size (not small, medium, or large). You should also know and understand the value of a tailored suit.

Whether you have to wear a suit to work or not it's still very important to invest in at least one (or two— blue and black) if you can. Weddings, graduations, fancy parties, funerals, and other events that pop up in life will require you at some point to wear one. Make sure you look and feel sharp by investing in a quality suit with proper tailoring and you won't have to scramble at the 11th hour.
