I love wearing strapless bras in the summer because you don't see your bra straps when you wear tank tops or any cute summer top. This is totally one of my pet peeves. I'm not into different color bras to show off their straps and I'm not into wearing clear plastic straps either. I mean who are you kidding? You can still see the straps! Making it clear doesn't mean it's invisible.
I got a strapless bra earlier this spring from Victoria's Secret. What I didn't realize though was that the bra made my boobs look squished and basically lower than they were because the bra didn't do well longterm with wearing and washing. So there's nothing worse than having your mother AND your husband on different occasions tell you that your boobs look weird and you need to get a new bra.
I seriously love my Hanes All Over Comfort Bra so in staying with the same family I tested out the Playtex Thank Goodness It Fits Delightful Dots Strapless Underwire Bra (2 for $30) and after a month of wearing it, it's been the most comfortable, functional strapless bra I've ever worn. First off, the bra stays in place and feels snug when you have it on. The cups are also molded well so that your boobs look good. They also come in "nearly" sizes if you are in between cup sizes. Plus the dots are so cute! I've worn this going on TV and at my talk at BlogHer. It's held up amazingly well and now I need to get one in black for evening wear.
Seriously ladies, no need to be a bra snob. I've got expensive bras from Agent Provocateur but who wants to spend all their time handwashing these things? Go ahead and try one of these strapless bras on and you'll know what I'm talking about. It's a great strapless bra that stands up to everyday wear!
