Oddly enough, as a follow up to the simple solutions to common clothing problems post, I just came across yet another good solution to the bra-strap dilemma. And this one is of particular benefit to the non-sewer...
What is it? Strong beaded bra straps, in a rainbow of colors, to complement any outfit where pesky bra straps might be a problem. This would definitely work in New York in the summertime... in fact, I wish I could hand them out on the street corners to every fashion "don't" who passes by.
Full disclosure: I had the pleasure of "meeting" (virtually) the owner today, and was impressed by her enthusiasm. I was NOT asked to post about it, by the way. By providing both jobs AND day care, this business helps a group of Colombian women to earn incomes for their families, and I dig that.
Love the name, love the purpose, feel good about this idea... Hope it continues to grow into other products.
"Thought recipes" and combinations for bigger picture thinking, though the eyes of a custom sewist/dressmaker/human being.
