Female fashion question

A lot of camis these days feature a shelf-bra, which is quite convenient. NY&Co, one of my favorite mall stores, now carries these camis with thicker straps (perfect for those who need a little more support).

The only problem is that due to the thinness of the material (despite being double layered), there is a tendency for some show-through.

There are solutions, but I can only find the products online. Has anyone found these in a local/chain store? Did they work well?

ETA - I found them at JCPenny; I am calling them to see if they have them in stock. Thanks anyway!

What are you referring to? Nipple covers?

Yes! My first Google attempt returned some interesting results but I did find them. Thanks!

Might I suggest wearing a strapless bra with them. Since I am usually wearing them under something I always double up on the bra, and when I wear them running I wear a sports bra under it.

I thought about it but it creates all sorts of oddness, partly due to the bulge of the hooks in the back, plus the fact that they never stay up on me.

There are a few varieties of the covers I found in JC Penney; some are thin like bandaid material, others have silicone, etc. I am trying the thinner ones first and then seeing if the other ones work better. THank you for the idea, though, and if you find a strapless bra that does not slide down, let me know!

Victoria's Secret used to carry them. Not sure if they still do. They looked like little flowers.

I found a product called "nippies", and another called "breast petals" (they even carry them at Target), and then I found this page at VictoriasSecret.com http://www2.victoriassecret.com/coll...ZZZ&rfnbr=5230

I bet Janet Jackson has a couple of pasties she could lend ya! Unfortunately, those would probably show through the material, too.
