    since there are tons of asian girls in here
    they have all probably experienced purchasing pants that are just to long for them

    what do you do about it?




    I use to just let it drag, but then they started ripping on my heels when i started wearing heels
    then i would cut them off, but then i had too many pants with frayed edges
    and folding them, sometimes looks good, but sometimes looks too preppy
    so i started learning to sew them, but i'm still not that good
     
  2. haha i dont have that prob.. since my legs are long :p but hey im not a girl -fear

    I get them fixed.

    Otherwise, I go to places like Bluenotes, where I can pick the length of my jeans. And American Eagle jeans come in "short" and they fit me just fine. And I'm really short (4'11).

    I always have that problem cos the europeans are taller and so their pants would be longer and getting it fixed by professionals is 10 bucks and takes 2 days....So, i cud not be botheres and just fold it up or bring it back for ma mum's sewing machine when i go back during hols....Sometimes, i do staple them lol.....(-_-")

    AHHAHAHAHAHA yes yes i remember 10 years ago..... stapling and rubber banding pants were sooooo hot......... But since i'm not in middle school anymore either.... I suggest going to GAP and find ANKLE sizes..... or you can buy petite pants

    hmmm...depending on the length thats too long....if like really long i tend to get ma mammi to tailor the trousers to fit me :) if not that long and is cope-able i just let it drag......but if its like jeans some stores actually tailor it for you ....i think its levi's stores that do it if ya want jeans...
