(even if you wanted to)

Your closet is full, but you wear the same few things all the time. In this episode I break down the two biases behind that: the endowment effect and the fear of scarcity, and give you the questions and one travel exercise to cut through them.

Mentioned in the episode:

Part 1 questions:

• If I didn't own this, would I buy it today, and what would I pay for it?
• If my luggage disappeared with this piece inside, would I replace it?
• If a friend with great taste offered me this from his closet, would I take it?
• Does this piece earn its place, or is it here because it's mine?

Part 2 questions:

• When did I last wear this? If it's been a year or more, realistically, when will I?
• What's the worst that happens if I let it go?
• If that day comes, would I even want this exact piece?

The "Paris" question:

• If this bag disappeared tomorrow, would I buy all of this again, and what would I pay for each piece?
• What would I buy first instead?

You decided to finally sort out your style, so you did what everyone does: opened your phone and started saving looks. Nothing wrong with that. But a saved folder only shows you the arrival, the end result. Never all the things and actions it took to get there.

This episode is about exactly that. There are 5 traits the most style-settled men all share. The good news is you'll probably recognize yourself in more of them than you expect.

In this episode I answer your questions: I start with the one underneath most men stuck in style no man's land: why evolving your look as you age has nothing to do with the birthday.

Other topics the questions cover are the style "rules" worth keeping versus the BS, what's worth investing in, and how to style for your build, dates, and the life you're living now.
