JEANS TOO LONG? Quick..Make That INSTANT Fix For Shortening Jeans!

Get Some STUDS To Hold Em Up!

So, being only 5'3", I run into a problem I'm sure many of us have at least once in a while. Most of my jeans are too long in the legs!

I had just gotten a new pair of TR jeans that I couldn't wait to wear but they were WAY too long, as you can see in this before photo:

This problem is usually solved by putting on a higher (4") pair of heels, but the problem with these particular heels (which were A MUST for this outfit) is the toe was STILL covered by the leg of my jeans!!

SO...rather than cut them off on the spot (which Seriously crossed my mind), I came up with an idea that not only worked, but looked AWESOME!!

What I did was fold the front of the legs acordian style, with the hem on top and poked a diamond stud through each leg and slid a rubber backer on each one...the result ROCKS!!

I didn't put them exactly center, they're placed about 1" from center. And the placement is totally up to you. You could even use two, one on each side, if you have a really wide cuff.


And after doing this, you can see how you could get really creative and use all kinds of different earrings for totally awesome, one-of-a-kind looks!!

Now I actually look forward to a pair of really long jeans! : )
