“Guys Live In Apartments Like This.” You’ve probably seen the meme while mindlessly scrolling through your Insta feed or on Tik Tok. Usually shared by disappointed potential suitors, the meme is a commentary on how some men tend to keep things perhaps overly simplistic when it comes to their rooms and apartment. Step into their den, and you might find a floor mattress, TV, couch, fridge, and PS5 — and that’s about it. Now, I am all for keeping things minimalistic, simple, and sticking to the bare necessities. But you can do that without looking like you are a CIA operative on the run.
Similar to your fits, your apartment or room can be a great opportunity to express yourself and your interests. The things you keep in your room give your guests insight into who you are.
Even more so, you should set up your room to be your own sanctuary — your own little pocket universe, whether you are working from home or commuting every day. The right bedroom accessories can help you get there.
As you probably guessed, we have outlined our favorite men’s bedroom accessories, items at varying price points that can truly elevate your home pad. You might even impress a partner or two the next time they come over.
