Q: Hi Fashionista Coach,
The weather is warming up and I want to wear strapless dresses and tube tops. But the problem are my shoulders. They are so big! I know this sounds weird, but how can I make them smaller?
Thanks for your help.

A: Hi Jenny!
Thank you for asking this question! First off, you are not alone in this. Many women have this fashion challenge (including myself!) and have had success. So here is what I suggest for you: Wear a strapless top or dress in one of two ways.... 1) With large print and solid color accessories. 2) Or wear a solid color tube top or dress with a long beaded necklace.
The reason I suggest these two options is because this will draw attention away from your shoulders and on the top/dress. Adding a long necklace, also draws attention to your top and away from your shoulders.
If you find yourself still feeling uncomfortable, wear a lightweight wrap or cardigan. That works like a charm!
Thank you for the question, Jenny!

Love your tips! I've always been a little self conscious with strapless, since I'm fairly broad for my height.
