Pockets are annoying! What would you do?

jacL · Coach

I have had this problem with every single pair of white pants I have ever bought! I always cut out the pockets on my own and if I am not too lazy, I sew the hanging pieces together, but you can't notice them anyway.

Have 'em cut out. I do this with any pair of white or light-colored pants. It's totally worth it to me. I like my clothes to be sleek and seeing the pockets totally ruins the look for me. Plus, it's not an outrageous tailoring expense to have it done.

esquiress · Marc Jacobs

totally cut them out. it's such an easy fix too, I don't even go to the tailorss--my mom just sews them right up for me.

hotcocoa · Kate Spade

yup... cut 'em out. it's an easy fix as everyone has already mentioned. i've done the work myself on several pairs of pants.

i'm wearing those pants today actually... i have the darker moss color. i love the pink though.

cut them!

NCshopper · Hermes

Cut them. But make sure you sew the pockets closed at the top before doing so.

jj · Kate Spade

Thanks ladies! I took your advice and sewed then cut. It was easier than I thought and I am so glad I did it. This has opened up a whole world of pant choices for me....

Elle · Hermes

I've done this before too, and will only use a big needle and embroidery thread. It's much easier to work with and tends to hold stronger than a hand-sew job with a traditional thread.
