2) Stand in front of a mirror. You will want the hem on one side of the leg to remain as it is, and you will be creating a new, narrower seam to replace the seam on the other side. To create the new seam start with your right leg and grab the bottom hem of your jeans to pull them taut against your leg.
3) Using straight pins, begin pinning the new seam from the bottom up. Use your first pin to make sure that the bottom hem lines up; this way the cuff will be even when you sew. Work your way up the leg, pinning every couple of inches and blending back into the original seam at the knee. You should use your hands to smooth the fabric around your leg as you pin. Be careful not to pin too close, or you won't be able to take off your jeans. Check out your work in the mirror before you take off the jeans. If the fabric is puckering or the bottom doesn't line up, take out the pins and start again. It is also helpful to take a permanent marker and draw a line following the new silhouette of your leg up to your knee. This will make it more clear how to sew the new seam. Repeat on the left leg.
4) Take off the jeans, being careful of the pins. If you aren't able to, repin the seam. Cut off a tiny square of what is now excess fabric -- the part that you will cut off after making your new seam -- and use it to test the thread tension of your machine before you sew your jeans. Use your sewing machine guide to help you determine how to change the settings if your test stitches come out bad.
5) Begin stitching the new seam. Line the foot up so that the marker line you drew is right outside the edge of the presser foot (be sure to do this in such a way that you are sewing a line that is slightly larger than what you pinned, not slightly smaller). Follow the line up to the point at the knee where you blended back into the original seam. Take out the pins and check out your work in the mirror. Do the pants go over your heel? Do they look right, without bunching? Does the bottom cuff match up? If not, take out your stitches and start again. If so, congratulations! Take the jeans off and cut off the excess fabric, leaving about a half inch past where you stitched. For extra support of your new seam, you should sew a second seam that is parallel to your first stitch (on the side that is away, not next to, your leg).
6) Repeat on the other side.
7) Trim all excess threads; you've now got a pair of skinny jeans!
Just cut down to side until past the flare and then sew back together (but cut part of the flaring part off so it is a boot cut). The extra fabric needs to be trimmed on both the side seam and the inseam. Otherwise the pant legs will not be balanced.
using a seam ripper, undo the hem at either side of the seam then start at hem and undo the seam up to the point you want. you will have to add a triangle of fabric as in insert.

In general, more modern jeans have a slightly lower cut in the waist, either a straight leg or a bit of flare rather than a tapered leg, and a darker wash than the dreaded "mom jeans." Beyond this, it is best to determine your body type to decide what style of jeans is best for you. A mid-rise bootcut jean with a dark wash is always a good place to start.
If you use a seam ripper you can add fabric to make the jeans bootcut. Usually a triangle of fabric will work. I've seen Bootcut jeans made this way with different fabrics instead of denim. Just rip the threads at the seams and then sew in the triangle of fabric.
Try aeropostale, they have there skinny jeans (bowery) but go online for plus sizes. Personally, I would try to steer away from the skinny jeans and opt for more of a straight leg or bootcut fit especially if you have a tall or big gene

Jeans and shorts are not out of style. Different styles of jeans come and go, ranging from bell bottom jeans to bootcut, straight leg and todays latest fashion are the skinny jeans. Shorts are a little different when it comes to style. There isn't one particular style, color or length that comes and goes and goes over the previous seasons.
Country women often opt for a classic and rugged style when it comes to jeans. They typically wear bootcut or straight-leg jeans in medium to dark washes, often with distressed or faded details. These jeans are durable and practical for their lifestyle while still maintaining a stylish and timeless look.
Though they're extremely hard to find these days, a true flare jean means that the pant opening at the bottom is AT LEAST 21" or taking it to the next level of a "super flare" opening of 26". These jeans flatter those with a larger waist, evening out the size of the hip to the bottom of your leg creating symmetry. Add that to a low-rise and the perfect pair of jeans has been created.
Some of the best and most popular jeans under one hundred dollars are Gap Long & Lean ($49.50), Levi's Eco Collection ($78.00), J. Crew Overdyed Bootcut ($88.00), Roxy Brooks Skinny Stretch Jeans ($44), Blue London Ultra Sexy Skinny Jean ($59.50), and Levi Straight Leg 505 Jeans ($48).
They are jeans that come up to the half of the leg.
You can buy them from various shops like new look, topshop etc. However I have found a way on YouTube to change flare trousers into skinny trousers, I would recommend trying them out on a old pair of trousers first. It is a video called "Skinny Jeans from normal/baggy jeans". You can do the same thing with school trousers though.
