Strapless bras make me miserable too. I've got a couple of thoughts on this. One, I can try to go without one at all (on occasion, I can do this, if the fabric is thick enough) depending on how the top ends up looking on me. Or, I can wear a skinny strapped bra and let the straps show (not my favorite thing ever, but people keep telling me it's ok now).
The third thought is that I could wear the bra I bought today. It's not only strapless, it's convertible! (It's the Transformer of bras!) Normally this is something I would shun, but luminesque has been raving about these recently and it really was the most comfortable one I tried on. It comes with both clear and bra-colored detachable straps that you can attach in different ways. I'm going to wear it with the clear straps crossed in the back if I get that ribbon x-back done by comfest, so then I'll know if they are sweat inducing nightmares or not (they're plastic!) It's the Very Sexy Convertible Strapless. It comes with those ridiculous water pads inside, but they are removeable. This is good, because with them in, it no longer needed the bridesmaid's dress altered at the top.
