Do you care, or not care if your bra strap shows?

I don't like when mine show, and now it seems since all my shirts fit a bit looser you can always see it. Thinking of getting a strap less one so I don't have to buy a whole new wardrobe.

I don't like my bra straps showing typically.
Which works because I DO NOT like spaghetti strap shirts regardless so the straps are always hidden.

Strapless bras are a major pain. Ugh. Unless the shirt/dress is strapless, I avoid them if at at possible.

That said, for casual wear, my bras have pretty straps mostly so if they do sneak out, it's not that big of a deal.
with dresses, I usually go strapless or make a real effort to make sure the bra straps STAY HIDDEN. (sticky tape them in place etc..) and it has worked so far.

My sports bra on the other hand are always showing lol oh well. I'm working out and don't want to deal with it..

I've never tried strapless. I somehow doubt they make them for my size, or that it would work, lol. I typically don't wear clothes that would show the strap though.

I don't like mine showing, unless they're sports bra straps then I don't care. Those things are so wide they look like part of an undershirt anyway.

I don't like them to show, unless I'm wearing a tanktop, because that means i'm either working out or just hanging around the house. It

I don't really mind if they show. I mean, I try to NOT let them show if at all possible, but typically if they're showing that means I'm in casual wear anyway. When I DON'T like them to show at all is if I'm wearing a dress. Then bra straps showing bugs me.

I don't let mine show. I don't have any cute bras right now, so that might change if I did.

My boyfriend is my bra-bro; he is under orders to let me know discretely if it slips out so I can fix it.

Agreed. I try to make it so they don't show, but if they do... well, I tried. LOL

If I absolutely cannot have a bra strap showing, then I'll go strapless. But that typically only comes into play for some fancy sort of scenario.

I don't really give a toss. Most of my fancy dresses can't be worn with bras due to intricate shoulder/bust detailing, being backless, having special necklines, having details on the shoulders/straps that would be ruined by a bra and so on - I don't have big boobs anyways so it's nothing to sweat.

Otherwise if it's just casual wear - doesn't matter either way.

I have tig ole bitties and strapless bras are just..no. I'm lucky to find a regular bra that works. I buy my clothes carefully. I've tried duct tape..and those sticky bra things..yeah no.

I will just say it. I have big boobs! LOL! Like, really big. Strapless bras aren't even an option for me. Bras are hard to shop for when you're my size- you have to deal with the straps digging into your shoulders, digging into your sides, the underwire poking you, whether or not you're actually *fitting* into the bra, and if you show dogs or do agility, you have to worry about bounce. Don't even get me started on bounce!

Basically, If I cared about straps showing, I would drive myself insane. Too many other things to worry about in that area.

YEAH KNOCK YA OUT BOUNCE!! Is how mine are , and I refuse an underwire so it is just way to insane to worry about straps. I dont wear shirts that reveal my upper arms anyway and the necklines have to be modest or the dang kids will pull my boobs out by tugging on me.

I generally don't like my bras showing, whether it's straps, the back, the sides, etc.

These days, I wear more of DH's shirts than my own, so it's a moot point. But I still have a few shirts that fit, and I have to wear a bra that matches the cut of the neck and if it's sleeveless, that too. Strapless is a PITA. I hate it, it never works.

Meh these days its not worth being worried about. My bras have wide straps because they are nursing bras and since im nursing tank tops are the easiest thing to wear.

Seriously! And, since dropping weight and moving down from a 40 to a 36, I now have to move UP a cup size . . . 36DDDs are hard enough to find, let alone in something that my grandmother wouldn't have worn (although my mom would definitely :rolleyes: )

JC penny used to have some cuter LARGE bras. They have to be special ordered though.
