Xev Posted August 12, 2005 #1 Share Posted August 12, 2005 I purchased a pair of pink pants. Pink is so not my thing but there were a few outside factors that influenced my purchase: I have the same pants in black and they're awesome, they were on clearance, and I figured they'd be a nice look for my Hawaiian cruise. Anyway, bottom line, I didn't try them on until after I took them home and washed them and THEN realized that the back pockets show through the pants. They like, glow through the pants, it's crazy. I was just wondering if there is any way to disguise the the pockets by wearing something under the pants? Any suggestions? I may just break out the sewing machine and sew the pockets shut and cut out the liner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herecomesthesun Posted August 12, 2005 #2 Share Posted August 12, 2005 If you don't plan on using the pockets, just cut them out. If you do it neatly you shouldn't even have to sew it up, though you certainly can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, maybe my DH can....I own the machine but the one time I played with it, he had to set it up and show me what to do. Shame on me.:rolleyes: It would be nice to have to pockets, but I doubt I'll actually use them anyway. Thanks for the suggestion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms Belvedere Posted August 12, 2005 #4 Share Posted August 12, 2005 It would be nice to have to pockets, but I doubt I'll actually use them anyway. Thanks for the suggestion! You could always take them to the Dry Cleaners or to a tailor or seamstress to sew the pockets closed and/or cut out the fabric, too. It shouldn't cost much to have that done. I rarely use back pockets and wouldn't miss them. Hope you find a solution that works for you! :) Ms B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goaliemomsr Posted August 12, 2005 #5 Share Posted August 12, 2005 or you can just wear a button down longer shirt with a t or tank under it and it would hide most of the pocket - solid pants, solid t or tank and a hawaiian shirt - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xev Posted August 12, 2005 Author #6 Share Posted August 12, 2005 Ahhh...what a wise suggestion! I totally didn't even look to see if the shirt I plan to wear with the pants covers the back. I don't think its long enough, but that would be really cool. I'm going to check right when I get home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitnyleo Posted August 13, 2005 #7 Share Posted August 13, 2005 If we can see your pockets, we can also see your underwear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xev Posted August 18, 2005 Author #8 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Haha, not necessarily. Nude colored thong panties just don't show. Nude colored underclothing are the only color that doesn't show, but you still have to watch for the dreaded pantie lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
