Frequently
asked questions about bra straps:
1.

the existing bra straps. Bra Straps.com offers now a very sexy convertible

2.
Q. Should all straps be invisible?
A. Every part of any outfit that you wear is a chance to further
express your inner fashion soul, and bra straps are no exception. As
with any outfit, the occasion and outfit style will help guide you in
your decision making. If you are trying to emphasize the top or dress
you're wearing without bring attention to the shoulders, then clear
bra straps are definitely the way to go. However, if you want to create
a bit more color or style for your outfit, or bring attention to the
shoulders, then wearing a matching or contrasting color bra strap or
clear bra strap with adornments may the best choice. In the end, it's
up to how you want to present yourself.
3.
Q. How do I pick the right color?
A. There are a number of ways to match your straps to your
outfit. For a conservative look, simply match the color of the straps
to the color of your top. For a more colorful look, match the strap
color to some other part of your outfit, such as pants, skirt, etc.
You can also use clear bra straps with adornments such as rhinestones
to enhance the beauty of a dress or gown. No matter what you choose,
the same basic rules of fashion apply: stay away from too many colors
at once. Wearing red bra straps with a green top and yellow pants may
get you noticed, but it won't be for your sense of fashion.
4.
Q. Is it OK if my straps are showing?
A. Showing your straps can be tacky or fashionable, depending
on your perspective. However, it's fair to say that wearing a white
bra with worn out straps under a black tank top certainly will not win
you any fashion awards. Fortunately, there are a number of styles and
colors on our site to match any top, or you can create a more distinctive
look by wearing a top with complimentary colored straps. For example,
if you wear a black tank top with red pants, wearing red fabric bra
straps or clear bra straps with red beads might be just the thing to
tie the entire outfit together.
5.
Q. Are white straps allowed?
A. As with any color, the issue of wearing white straps depends
entirely on the color of the top you are wearing, as well as the overall
color scheme of your outfit. However, regular white bra straps almost
never look good with anything because they weren't designed with fashion
in mind. Try a pair of our thin white fabric straps with or without
beads to create a more fashionable look.
6.
Q. What should I wear with a halter top?
A. Typically, the best answer is to wear a strapless bra to
provide the cleanest look. At times, though, your strapless bra may
not look very attractive, or you may need more support. In those cases,
a convertible bra with one clear bra strap or a matching color bra strap
worn around the neck is the best solution, and still provides a nearly
invisible look. Bra Straps.com offers now a very sexy convertible bra
that can be used with all our bra strap collection. Click

7. Q. How do I place the straps on my
bra?
A. For a bra with interchangeable straps, unhook your old straps,
connect your new straps, and you're done. For a bra without interchangeable
straps, you'll need to do a little work first. Cut each strap at both
ends, leaving enough to fold over and sew to the bra, which creates
a fabric hook. Then, connect your new straps using the fabric hooks
that you just created. Make sure that you use enough thread to securely
hold the hook in place, as the bra strap will put a lot of stress on
it during regular use.
8. Q. Do these bra straps break? Are they
elastic?
A. All of our straps are made from high quality materials that
resist tearing and breaking, and we use high test metal hooks that don't
break like plastic hooks do. When you're ready to wash them, just use
your regular detergent or even hand soap and rinse. Your bra straps
will be clean and ready to wear. As for the stretchiness, most of our
bra straps are made out of elastic materials that support the weight
and give comfort at the same time.
9. Q. What size are the bra straps?
A. All of our bra straps are fully adjustable to accommodate
just about any size.
