How To Keep Off Shoulder Tops In Place

Off shoulders are effortlessly stylish, except they can get really annoying and uncomfortable if they are not worn the right way. You might feel this discomfort particularly with tops that come with an elastic. Here's a workaround that helps you keep that off shoulder in place.

Gather Your Supplies

1. Two safety pins for each side, so you will need 4.
2. Two plain black hair ties.

How To Do It

1. First, attach two of the safety pins on either side of the hair tie.
2. Do this with the second hair tie too – one for each side.
3. You need to attach these to either side of the inside seam, near the underarm.
4. Make sure that the safety pins are not visible from outside.
5. The hair ties will look like dress straps, except they will be inside and not visible when you wear the top.
6. When you wear it, put your arms over the tie.
7. Try this, and you will see the difference it makes to your top.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of a bra do you need to wear for off shoulder dresses?

Will off shoulder sleeves look nice for wedding dresses and sarees?

Off shoulders on wedding dresses are the next big thing. So yes, it is cool to flaunt them. Also, sarees and lehengas with off shoulders are in vogue, so don't think twice and go for it.

Do off shoulder sleeves suit all body types?

Off shoulder tops keep the upper portion of the upper body bare, so some may feel awkward while trying to pull this style off. But they look great with any body type and are also an interesting way to steer attention from any unflattering places. If you are still unsure, go for the cold shoulder style.
