Maybe give some free advice about: Fashion and Styles?
Interfacing, vylene or wonderweb are uk names for the tape razhie mentioned. If you make a neat , straight job of turning the hem nobody will know you have done it. Maybe press the new crease in first and 'un-pressing' it as required (as you might say) until it's spot-on. Then iron over it with the interfacing in place. Job done.

There is no magic spell here. You either have to make it shorter by removing fabric from the bottom (by heaming it) or removing fabric from the top by rolling it or raising it at the waist.
There is a special kind of tape you can buy at fabric stores to help you heam something without having to see, but it's not always effective on heavier fabrics and wools - which your skirt is likely made of. Other than that, I'm afraid there just isn't a magically solution besides the obvious ones.
