Before you embark on any shopping spree, channel your inner Sherlock Holmes and investigate your own wardrobe. There's a good chance you've got hidden gems hiding in there. Remember that shirt you bought and never wore? It's time to give it a chance to shine. Mix and match your existing pieces to create fresh outfits. You'll be surprised at the combos you can whip up without spending a dime!
