The American expectation that women should rarely repeat outfits doesn't just clutter our closets—it complicates our mornings and clouds our minds.

This week's episode includes a practical challenge: Create your two favorite outfits for the current season and experience the liberation that comes when wardrobe decisions become effortless.

What's the fewest number of outfits you could get by with?
