The tailor sounds like a good idea. Also, this is a really, really easy alteration. You shouldn't have to pay much.
If I were doing this, I'd cut the sleeves, serge the raw edges, hem the now short-sleeved jersey with a zigzag, then finish and hem the cut-off sleeve. Depending on how tight the sleeves were, I might need to put some elastic in the top of the armwarmers to keep the armwarmers from sliding down the arm. Note that the armwarmers might be a little short, because of the seam allowances for the hem on jersey and sleeve.
