Off the shoulder straps?

Off the shoulder straps?

Do you think off the shoulder straps would make arms look bigger or smaller?

Chances are that my flabby arms aren't going anywhere and I'd want to hide them, but I don't want them to look bigger by adding off the shoulder straps.

What do you ladies think?

a) your arms do not look flabby!

b) off the shoulder is really flattering and slimming, especially if you have a nice neck and shoulder line.

c) In the end, it really just depends on the cut and fit of the style you choose. I think it could look very nice, just make sure you're comfortable!

I bought an off the shoulder wedding dress and I HATE my arms... they are like unusually large for the rest of me I feel gross in every pic looking at my arms but I idid not see that in my pics of the wedding dress! I'd say to make you feel confident in your decision try it on and take a pic and look at it!

I am getting them added onto my dress, they are making them detachable, so I can change the look of my dress from ceremony to reception!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think they make arms look smaller and I feel like it helps break up my broad shoulders an big chest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think it all depends on the whole outfit. Is this for wedding dress?

I'm getting straps added to my dress, but was just worried that instead of hiding them it would make them look larger.

Stupid arms!!!

Yup- it's for my wedding dress. I have a sweet-heart neck line.
