The eternal struggle of women...

I have a lovely strapless dress which has this annoying tendency to slip down. I almost always wear it with a shrug.

That's the only strapless dress I have.  All others are sleeved.

I use a product called It Stays body adhesive to keep this from happening.  It's a water soluble glue that's licensed to a number of different companies.  I think some might be more watered down than others, depending upon its intended use.  It can be used for all kinds of fabrics, wigs, and breast forms.  I use it for strapless dresses, keeping straps from slipping, and knee highs.  Great stuff since it will completely disappear in the wash and is very mild on skin.

Last year, I purchased several strapless dresses while visiting Big Island, Hawaii. They were cheap and comfortable to wear.



I also like exposing my belly by wearing a crop top in summer.



About 7 years ago, I purchased the following one at a store in Seattle and the discounted price was less than US$ 20.



I still keep it, but I first wore it last year here in my country.




I also have several tube tops.

I like mid length sleeves (to elbow) and straps.

Don't really like strapless. Cap sleeve... eh. I like them but my shoulders haven't shrunk down yet to where they look really nice.

I like fit and flare dresses the most but my new favorite is a faux wrap with mid length sleeves. It's a bit thin though so I wear a slip below it.

Yes. I usually wear faux wrap dresses at my work place, or even as sleepwear. They are very comfortable. Also they look rather conservative, and I wear them during the class.

Thanks for the tips, these will come in handy.  It's not often I wear dresses without sleeves, but still.
