3 sentences help with grammar

Could you please help me correct these 3 setnences?

1 I like a hem on my jean. I pull the up to form a hem rather than get them tailored.
2 That's not the most matching outfit I've seem but it's okay.
3 Grey is easier to mix with colors than red. You should buy a grey not a red one.

Thank you

alc24, I supposed people may get an idea what you meant, but "correct" in the total sense of being idiomatic, natural, and grammatical, no, they are not. 1) "Tailors"and jeans don't go together. Just say "I need my jeans hemmed; they are too long".
