Why do you cross bra straps?

A racerback bra is a bra in which the straps criss-cross to form an “X” shape on the back. What are the benefits of a racerback bra?

How do you turn a bra into a racerback?

That’s also not to mention that running out to purchase a new bra 5 minutes before you’re supposed to be somewhere simply isn’t practical. So instead, just grab a paperclip (or a bra clip if you have one) and snap those straps together into a racerback. It’s a quick fix that will work in a pinch.

How do I keep my bra straps on my shoulders?
