A lot has changed since then, and now it seems it's quite alright to show some strap. I see lots of women walking around wearing tops with spaghetti bands, showing their bra.
However, even though it's no longer nót 'not done', I still think it looks messy to show your bra straps. So I turned to plastic bra straps in my hour of need, only to take them off again, because they feel scratchy and sweaty. Then I figured, I'ld try to match the color of my top with my bra, so the straps wouldn't be so obvious. That helped a bit, but still, elegant it was not.
So now I simply make sure my tops hide any bra straps. So no more slinky tops with spaghetti straps for me.
What do you think: does it do to show your bra straps?

I wouldn't show mine either. I think it looks messy/dirty, but that's just me!
ReplyDeleteI don't think so. I think underwear's not meant to be seen. However, there are some that have cute 'fancy' straps and if it matches with the top then I guess it can pass. I tend to use strapless bras or bras with transparent straps depending on thin the straps of top garment are.
ReplyDeleteI grew up during the age that NO you do not show the straps. In fact - we would safety pin the straps to our tops if needed to keep them from peeking out. Nowadays I don't worry too much about it if one sneaks out every now and then. But wearing a bra with a spaghetti strap top does not look right. Any time the bra strap is wider than the top strap it is a NO GO in my book.
