If your blazer sleeves are too long, there’s a simple way to fix it without picking up a needle and thread.
Today we’re sharing a clever safety pin hack from Dicas com Bia that lets you effortlessly crop your blazer sleeves.
Tools and materials:
1. Grab your favorite blazer
2. Turn your blazer inside out
Start off by turning your blazer inside out and putting it on.
3. Gather and pin the fabric
Next, accordion fold an inch or two of the upper sleeve (above the elbow). How much fabric you fold will determine how cropped the final look is. You can watch how to do this step in the video above. Carefully secure your fold with a safety pin.
