  • A simple step by step diy sewing project to alter your skinny jeans and save them from winding up in the landfill.
    Hate to break it to you but skinny jeans are out, flares, wide leg, bell bottoms, bootcut, and even just straight leg is in...basically anything that isn't skinny lol.

    I am a flare jeans kinda girl. I probably was the weirdo who always wore flare, boot cut or wide leg jeans and never used skinny jeans when they were the trend. So, thanks for this tutorial

    Thx so much! Me and my friend are recycling some old black skinny jeans. We put tips above the knee and used a failed sewing project of mine (it was to take up a vest I got for free, didn’t work out as my sewing machine broke and severely damaged the fabric) and it was so fun making them. It’s fun to style too

    I am a pretty tall girl (5’9”, mostly legs and arms with a pear shaped torso). I fell into the skinny Jean craze a little later than most, because I didn’t like how tight they were. But as my hips filled out, I liked wearing them more and more because they were the only things that seemed to fit my hips….but they were too short for my long legs and most of my jeans ended looking like high waters. Cut to last year during a thrift shopping spree and I found and fell in love with some high-waisted flare jeans. Now I can no longer fit in my fave jeans because of weight gain but I think they would look so cute as flares! And I don’t want to give them up

    When I hear you say “I’ve always been a…”
    I keep expecting the next words to
    “…a punk at heart.”
    I remember you being sent home from school for wearing a ripped Sid Vicious t-shirt and safety-pins. ❤️

      I certainly remember getting in trouble for dress code a lot, but I don't remember ever being sent home? lol

    I think personally you need to add length too, to make the right balance.

  • @evaaddkison400

    Since skinnies are typically hemmed at the ankle, they end up being too short when converted to flares. This will work better with a straight leg or some jeans that will come down a little longer than the ankle.

      I just undo the hem even on skinny jeans! Makes them over an inch longer

    • @TheLeopardLodge
      @TheLeopardLodge  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I did run into this a bit but I wear them with boots and they look great. It really is about giving new life to the skinny jeans so, working with what we've got :)

    • @TheSuspira
      @TheSuspira ปีที่แล้ว

      Just add the same material as the flare and lengthen the hem with it or add long lace or ruffle for extra length. Make it work!

      They would've looked great has they been longer.

    Thank you for this. But I wish you had told me how to deal with the point (top of the triangle). Maybe I'm supposed to have better sewing skills...? Thx anyway.

    What do you do about the length as they tend to be shorter

    I think not all “flared” pants look equally wearable. I see some people wear them and some women simply don’t understand how they have to match with the correct clothes or hair, or shape. It’s like how if a guy tried wearing male bell bottoms it will look ugly no matter what if a guy has a buzz cut , short hair. Needs hair volume

    • @TheLeopardLodge
      @TheLeopardLodge  ปีที่แล้ว

      totally agree, and same can be said for lots of clothes - all about how you style them!

    Thanks for the tutorial. It is exactly what I was looking for. But the print on the fabric you attached makes me question your taste :(

    Please work on your voice it goes lower at end of instances and is hard to listen too, it’s like croaking and painful, I’m been honest not to be awful just giving u cc I can’t watch anymore x
