  • Hi beauties!
    If you're like me, then you've had a lot of issues finding jeans that fit at the waist and down the leg at the same time. This hack is a great quick fix that helps take in the waist of your denim and easily downsize your jeans! It helped me quickly alter my favorite Zara jeans with the tools I already have at home. Let me know what you guys think!

    hi! first of all i wanted to thank you for trying this method and make us see if it really works!
    i just tried and it works great, cheap and fast method, i love it lol
    a tip for everyone: if you got a crochet hook or knitting tools you can tape an end of the shoe lace to the hook and use that to guide the shoelace through the wait band, it's a lot easier, i don't have bobby pins and this have really work good for me🤗

    I would probably draw it to my waist and then make a knot on each end instead of tying together because sometimes, you gotta get in the bathroom and the knot don't want to come undone and it's an emergency... But otherwise I probably wouldn't even get them tailored.

    i don't usually need to tie any knots to secure the lace to the bobby pin. maybe because the bobby pins i had were all really tight, all i have to do is simply fold the shoelace 2 inches in from one end, slide the folded end in between the bobby pin, and it's secured. i find it easier to sting a drawstring without any knots inside (at least for men's running shorts, and pajamas). i used to restring the drawstrings a lot when i was little because i was too stupid to just tie a knot at the right place, and oftentimes, the drawstring would slip into the waistband. ironically, i was smart enough to use my mom's bobby pins to get the drawstring out.

      Okay so people might not trust this video but she really helped me so here’s some things you can do
      1. When you are doing this make sure it’s a shoelace. (I used a shoelace from a shoe that I wore last year winter and because the shoe is not so cute.)
      2. I wore the jeans on just to see what it looks like before I fixed it. (Literally fell off😭.)
      3. I got some cramps on my thumb while pulling the shoelace though the waist part.
      4. I put the hole where she put the hole it’s the perfect spot!!
      5. After I put it through and pulled a piece out for me to tie I put the jeans on so that I can tie it obvi!
      6. The last part when you’re finished zipping buttoning and tying unscrunch the jeans like kinda move the little scrunches to the back part!!
      7. YOU’RE DONE!! Enjoy your jeans.
