DIY Resizing Your Jeans
Well, my working out has paid off and I can finally say that my clothes are starting to fit a bit looser. This is great news for my little black dresses, but devastating news for my adorable rose-pink high-waisted skinny jeans, which were a tad big to start with. Luckily, I came across a pretty easy way to make a straight leg a skinny leg, and generally make larger pants smaller, then I tried it out for myself and made some adjustments. No need to go to an expensive tailor when you can easily do it yourself, and here’s how:
Instructions:
2. Sew along the pinned line as straight as possible, using the original seam as guidance.
3. Now cut off the excess fabric and iron the seam flat.
Easy-peasy lemon squeezy.

- Turn your jeans inside out, and put them on. Pin along the outer seam so that they are tight to your legs and CAREFULLY take them off.
