A Note from Susan

Ladies,

Few women know what to look for when purchasing bra straps. Most women will see a pair of bra straps in the store and buy them without taking into consideration whether they are durable or even if they will fit. There are a few things to consider when purchasing a pair of bra straps. If it is a pair of beaded bra straps, what materials are used to string it? Monofiliment (fishing string) & elastic are not durable enough. If it is a pair of rhinestone bra straps (like on this page) is it made in a prong setting? Prong settings snag most material and will ruin your clothes. Show Off Straps are not set in a prong setting, they will not snag and ruin your clothes and they are smooth to the touch. Also, is there an extender chain or is it finished from end to end? Extender chains, similar to that on a necklace, are a nice concept but they rarely look nice on a woman. You do not want extender link chain showing on your back, you want rhinestones showing on your back. These are features that you should take into consideration before purchasing a pair of bra straps. Take the time to measure, determine your size and purchase a pair of bra straps that will fit you well.

Fashionably Yours,
