I don't know about you, but I have a lot of clothes in my closet that I want to wear, but they don't "suit" my needs. They may be too baggy in the crotch, too long, a bit too tight or I'm just not sure what to wear with it. I have had a pair of navy blue trousers for a couple of years that are hardly worn, but hated to give them away. So finally this past weekend I decided I was going to turn them into skinny pants! The pants were already too big so I had plenty to work with in case something didn't work out. These are the "before" pictures. The pictures are not that great, but you can see they are a little baggy and definitely too long. They were best worn with heels in their previous life. When doing this yourself, I would recommend picking pants that have some stretch to them. If you look at most ready-to-wear skinny jeans/pants, they have stretch so they move with you.
