Ouch.<\/p>\n<h2>Brides See it as a mix of elegant and sexy<\/h2>\n<p>According to this article in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.slate.com\/articles\/double_x\/doublex\/2012\/05\/strapless_wedding_gowns_they_re_unflattering_why_are_they_so_popular_section_doublex.html\">Slate<\/a> and Martha Stewart Weddings, 75% of the most popular wedding dresses are strapless. Why? Because brides see it as a combination of ball gown elegance that won\u2019t make them look dowdy. While strapless may be a great way of still showing a little skin and wearing full length, there are so many chic and stylish options with sleeves and straps nowadays that they\u2019re impossible to ignore (thank you Kate Middleton for bringing back sleeves in a cute way). Sure puffy sleeves of the eighties aren\u2019t making a comeback any time soon, but when we think sleeves, we see Grace Kelly\u2019s stunning wedding dress.<\/p>\n<h2>Being The Best You<\/h2>\n<p>You\u2019re wedding day is all about looking you\u2019re best self and since most women aren\u2019t comfortable with strapless in their daily lives, we say, why follow a trend that won\u2019t make you feel fabulous? Personally, any of my attempts to feel chic and good about myself while going strapless have never worked out!<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve always loved the strapless look, go for it. But, if you\u2019ve ever worn strapless in total discomfort we say abandon the uniformed wedding dress look and go with what will make you feel special!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The strapless wedding dress\u2026 An insanely popular look (especially in Ireland), but, in our opinion, slightly overrated. \u00a0Here are some good reasons not to wear strapless on your wedding day\u2026 Busty Bride Although we adore the strapless wedding dress, the truth is, they\u2019re not for everyone (certainly not for this busty blogger).\u00a0 They\u2019re never really comfortable in the sense that it\u2019s difficult to dance the night away and tug your dress up at the same time.
