Can you make jeans smaller?

This is a little bit of motivation for others too but I really do have a serious question. I bought some designer jeans a while back and it got to the point where I thought I had to buy "larger ones". At the time I was a size 38. I started losing weight and now I fit a size 34. The fit around my legs is great and I have no problems with that but the waist area is where its too big. I literally can put a water bottle down my pants :laugh:

I never tailored jeans but is that even a possibility?

    Sure! Any seamstress should be able to take the waist in to make them smaller for you, but check on prices, it might be cheaper to buy a new pair. Since you said they're designer, though, I am sure a seamstress would be cheaper

    You can take them to a tailor and they should be able to bring in the waist!
    Great job :)

    My thought exactly. Why are you stuffing a bottle in your pants? LOL

    Good work!

    OH thanks a lot! I guess I'll be shopping around for prices to see how much it would cost :tongue:
