We women all have the problem of our bra straps deciding to show themselves at inopportune times, usually on laundry day when we're wearing a boring, dingy beige bra. Luckily, there are products on the market to help us with this calamity.
L-Straps
L-Straps are the creme-de-la-creme of bra straps. Made with beautiful Swarovski crystal, these uber-glamorous straps simply replace existing bra straps. Just be sure to remove them before throwing your bra in the laundry. Hey, if they're going to show, they may as well be gorgeous! You can view the collection at lstraps.com and buy them at Yoobies.com as well as fine lingerie boutiques across the nation.
Clearly Gone: disappearing bra straps
Clearly Gone is far from the glamour of L-straps, but they still have their place. These are clear bra straps that replace existing straps; they have a matte finish, so they don't shine and attract even more attention. One pair is $4.95 at SolutionsThatStick.com
Strap Trap: racerback bra clips
Strap Trap is the best way to keep bra straps from slipping. It hooks both straps together and converts any bra into a racerback (extremely useful if your bra doesn't have detachable straps), keeping the straps far and away from the edges of shoulders, so they can't slip down. They even add a little perk along the way. Strap Trap comes in a black, white and clear 3-pack for $7.95 at SolutionsThatStick.com

Quick Fix Sticks is great for thin-strapped tops whose straps don't jive with yours. Just stick them together and no matter where the straps go, at least they are united. You can even stick the straps to your shoulder so they don't slip down. It doesn't add perk or glamour, but it saves the hassle of boosting your straps back up all day, and has many other useful applications, like emergency hemming and closing gaps between buttons. 48 strips are $7.95.
