To keep bra straps hidden, I have recommended the double stick tape (sometimes called "fashion tape" or such) between the dress and bra strap. You can even add a piece again between the skin and the strap-package.
A better idea, that is more re-useable, would be to sew in the oval spring clip type hair clips (child sizes) with a loose tack (so it moves a bit). Can be fastened with one hand and is always ready in the dress/shirt.

I have problems with my bra straps falling down. I hate that! So this idea with the clips I am going to try for some reason it doesn't matter how tight I pull the strap thing they always fall down.
Ambrina, I have the same problem. No matter how I adjust my bra straps they always fall down off my shoulders. So I came up with an idea that works great for me. I took strips of ribbon (I used a see-thru tan color) cut to the length I needed. I sewed one end to one strap about halfway between the bra back and my shoulder. Then I measured where to put it and sewed a small hook & eye on the other end. This keeps the straps from falling down and is still easy to put on and off. I used hook & eyes because that's what I had on hand, but a small snap would also work. And it's less visible than a hair clip.
I have round shoulders and no matter what I do, my bra straps don't stay up. I've tried the double sided tape, it doesn't work for me. I take a thin piece of beige elastic and sew it to my bra, measuring up about 5 inches from each of the bra straps.
