What would you do......???
Permalink Closed

sorry i don't know if this is the right section for this but just a question.

As some of you may know I've been doing WeightWatchers since January and now I'm happy to say that all my jeans are too big on me now. I got two new pairs (hopefully I can get rid of these soon too) but what should I do with all of my other jeans? I have alot of nice pairs from Seven and Yanuk, but I unfortunately don't have any friends that could fit into them (either too big or too small) and all of my pants have been hemmed (I'm 5'3/5'4).

Should I just donate? Try to sell?

can't you get them altered?  or try to sell them on ebay.  if that doesn't work, donate.

Try and sale.
Or maybe take them to a tailor?
What size are they?

You could also try some resale shops if you have any in your area.

I think so. I've never had it done but I believe you can get it done.
If not, sale them on eBay, maybe I'm your old size and I would totally be interested :)

I know of a girl who brought a pair of jeans that were four sizes too big to a tailor. He altered them to fit her perfectly. I'd take a pair or two of your favorites to a few tailors and see what they say...afterall, you like the jeans and they're already hemmed.

first of all, congratulations on your loss!

my first stop would be my tailor. ebay could be a pain since they've been hemmed, but you never know... i'd welcome a pair of pre-hemmed jeans since i'm forever dragging out my sewing machine with each new pants purchase.

They put darts in the jeans to get them to fit to your waist.


What size are they. I'll take 'em! (i am 5'4", and always have to have mine hemmed)
