heavy boobs + narrow, sloping shoulders = constant misery.

every couple of years I reach the end of my patience, try something for a few days, it fails, I go back to just constantly grabbing at the the straps and hoisting and looking like a slob. It has been almost 40 years of this and I have hated every second of it.

what doesn't work:

1. switching to racerback bras. I wear mostly scoop and v neck tops, don't want stuff showing. Really I need to keep the bras I've got, it's damn near impossible to find ones that fit anyway and I finally found these so I have to keep them.

2. I had these little elastic straps that had bra-like clasps on both ends, the idea was to clasp them between the straps to form a sort of "H" across the back. This was the closest I've come to a solution, but they tended to pop off when I was trying to get a bra on, and were never tight enough. Mainly I need something I don't need someone else to put on for me.

3. plastic clasps that grab the straps together in the back. those require someone else to put them on and off. No.

4. sewing little holders with mini snaps onto the inside shoulder seams of my clothes. Giant pain in the ass and I'm not willing to do it for every shirt I own.

Right now I am thinking about sewing a piece of (elastic?) between the straps of all my bras, to form a "H" across the back. Maybe forming a loop around the back of each strap? Would love any tried and true solutions before I start a sewing frenzy.
