As a short person, I am always dragging my pants on the ground. And if I get my pants hemmed, then I can't wear them with heels anymore. It's a pressing dilemma, as you can see. Nice dress pants ain't cheap! Can I get a witness?

I recently found out about a new product called Zakkerz. Weird name aside, the fabric strips with magnetic ends actually hold a pant roll in place, allowing you to go from flats to heels, or pants to capris, on a whim:

[Ch-ch-ch-changes...]

Currently, Zakkerz only come in black, which would look dorky with jeans, in my opinion. However, the sisters behind the company promise that more colors and extra large Zakkerz (sturdier for holding jeans) are soon to come.

Perfect stocking stuffers for your favorite fashionista?
