How can you shorten leather pants that have ankle zippers?

Regardless of what the pants are made from, shortening pants with ankle zippers can be done, but is a little more time consuming. You will have to cut the zippers off and cut the garment to your desired length, then cut the slot where the new zippers will go making them longer. You might have to buy new zippers to replace the old ones, but Amazon.com has a good selection of zippers if you need more.You can take the pants to your local cleaners where they should be able to sew the new zippers on making the pants shorter but with new zippers at the ankles, looking like they were never cut.

How can I shorten my dress without sewing/cutting it?

This may sound complicated, but it's not!
Fold up bottom of your dress, to the desired length (like your going to hem it up)
Instead of using actual pins, do use safety pins since they will hold all day..
I would say to use about six safety pins total.. one on each side (left and right), then two on the front in back. Oh! And if you don't trust that it will stay, you can always starch and iron just the bottom half, if it's safe to do that on the material.

Question about cutting jeans into shorts?

Put them on, and with a washabale marker draw a small line of where you want them to hit ( make sure the pockets wont show )

Take them off, lay them flat on the floor and take sharp siccors and cut one leg of the jeans at a time. Make sure you cut a straight line. Then, put the new shorts back on- if still too long, make another line and cut a little more. Remember- you can always cuff them to make them shorter. I find that this often works better AND looks better! :}

good luck!

How to make shorts longer or appear longer?

Having a short top will make your shorts look longer, simply by showing more fabric. However, it's sometimes difficult to pull off a shirt that ends at a a high point. A good idea is to wear the shorts on top with a cute belt for a classy, pulled-together look. Observe:

Wearing a long shirt will only make your midriff look lower than it is, which makes shorts appear very tiny.

Also, try wearing bermuda shorts. They're a little longer, but still keep you cool on hot days.

Skirts are also good, as you can pull them down while walking past administrators, and then hike them back up later easily.

Hope I helped!

How do you temporarily hem pants?

It's pretty simple. If u know basic stitching then just fold your pants inwards(make sure it's even on both sides) and stitch it around. And if u don't know how to stitch at all, just take a needle and put a thread through it (colour similar to that of your pants). Make a knot on one end of the thread. After folding your hem inwards put your needle through it from outside, take the needle inside and after covering a small area, pull it out again. Then cover a small area again, and pierce the needle inside again. Follow this around the line and in the end, make a knot of the thread again and cut the thread a little further away from the knot. You are all done!PS- in case I didn't explain it well, simply watch a YouTube video :)

How do you make old sweats or jeans into cute shorts?

I would lay the pants down on the floor and dra a line with chalk or a pen where you want them cut. Use a ruler so it's even on both legs. Then use scissors and carefully follow your line. After you can decide to hem them, most hems are an inch or so, or you can let them go an they'll get frayed. However, just make sure that you don't cut them too short if you're planning on hemming them after, and just in general. Booty shorts are trashy.

Do I look short?

You are not short but in all the photos I have noticed one common think and that is the absence of neck and that is making you look short.Get rid of the fat between your shoulders and face and you will see the difference, you can also avoid the following practices which makes a person look a bit short.Breaking up your body with layers and colors. Anything that you can do to break your body into sections rather than emphasizing the length with one long garment will make you seem shorter. You can do this by wearing different colors, patterns, and layers of clothing.For example, you could wear a white shirt with pair of jeans and red shoes, then add a cardigan or a belt to add another layer. Adding a belt with an interesting buckle or some shoes with some eye catching details will make you seem shorterWearing pants with cuffs on the bottom or rolling up your pants can make you seem shorterWearing horizontal stripes and a variety of patterns and colors.Wearing longer shirts over pants, such as leaving a shirt un-tucked.While carrying a small bag may emphasize your height, carrying a large bag may make you appear shorter.Hope it helps.
