Should you buy duplicate wardrobe staple pieces? Most stylists say no, but I'm making the strategic case for why buying multiples of what truly works might be the smartest wardrobe move you're not making.
In this episode, I share why the "every piece must be a hero" mentality creates wardrobe bottlenecks, explore the personality factors that influence duplicate-buying decisions, and give you a simple framework for deciding what's worth duplicating in your closet.
Plus, I'll tell you about my husband's evolution from Eddie Bauer variety-seeker to his signature "dandruff black" tee uniform during COVID - and why it was brilliant, not boring.
If you've ever found the perfect piece and wished you had bought more, this episode is for you.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
