Yes girl! I've pin'd and sometimes stapled my dress pants on both sides of the waist so I can wear it to work (how tacky)
.......didnt get a chance to get them to the cleaners for them to take it in..Last edited by Kiz; 06-20-2008 at 09:19 AM. |

Lemme see I have done that to a dress
rouched and sewn the shoulder straps to make them thinnner Nipped the cowl neckline so it didn't drop so deep It wsa a stretchy material so instead of hemming it I shortened by putting the extra length by the waist folding in 2 places so it looked like general gathering. Lemme find a pic Yes Kiz it will come down by the time I get to work*****

![]() Pinned before I tried the tape for clothes before. My mom taught me the trick of how to pin and not let the pin show too much. It had a time I forgot to hem my favorite pants. I good iron it then when is time to put on I see the damn hem hanging down. I say to myself yuh see this shit I ain't have time to sew nah lemme put the pin and secure it. Finish get dressed and I was out the door ![]() |

![]() My funniest alteration was stuffing my bra (the bras that has a slit in it to put padding, which I discovered after I put it to wash) to make a loose fitting top fit well. You see I got a hand me down from someone and this person has more chest than me. It worked. I am glad it did not make me look fake doh. |
