Has anybody else experienced this too??

This is exactly why I really dislike shoulder bags. They never stay on my shoulder. I carry totes and satchels.

This works for me...totally keeps my Carly on my shoulder.

I placed a strip on the underside of the strap -- it's not at all noticeable since they are clear and no more slipping! Found them at Walgreens. Hope this helps you!

Unfortunately, wide strap bags wont work in everyones favor due to the shape of their shoulders. Everyone is different, so some people it will stay, others it wont. I have very square shoulders, so bags stay on mine, but those who have short, or sloped shoulders, they don't. You need a bag with skinny straps if the wide ones wont stay. When you go to buy a bag, ALWAYS try your stuff in it to see if you will have this problem.

wow that is a great idea

I was complaining about this myself to a friend regarding my Carly and she jokingly suggest I get shoulder implants lol. I like TulsaMINI's idea much better.

It sometimes happens to me as well, but it depends on what kind of jacket/shirt I'm wearing.

OMG, what a great idea, I would've never tought about it, hihi.

That idea is genius!

You know my husband suggested that same thing but I didn't want to ruin the strap. Does it leave a sticky residue if you peel it off? It is a really good idea I just hate the thought of ruining something so expensive.

What a great idea!! I, too, can't wear a lot of styles because when I try them on at the store, they slip off my shoulder. I HATE that. My shoulders slope slightly. That's why I love the Leigh (on my wishlist). The combo leather and chain for some reason stays really well on my shoulder!

I question the stickiness of the heel liner, too. Does it come off easily, etc??

I was thinking the exact same thing! I had a problem with my Carly slipping off my shoulder at first, but it seems the more I wear her, the better she stays. Maybe I'm just adjusting my posture as I get used to it. Hmmm, I might have to try these...
