I got this dress from ASOS a few weeks ago and being a normal adult, decided to leave it out of the bag on a hanger hoping that the wrinkles would magically come out so I could avoid ironing. I will do anything to avoid ironing. I finally wore it after a week, the wrinkles did manage to dissipate on their own, and when I wore it my mom said, “That looks a lot better on because on the hanger that was the ugliest dress I have seen.” Cool. Exactly the pep talk I needed at 6:45 am. It was then that I deemed this dress, “On the hanger fug. Off the hanger fab.”
Dress: Asos (exact and on MASSIVE SALE)
Shoes: Vince Camuto (very similar) (similar)
Bag: Kate Spade (very similar) (similar)
Necklace: C/O Hello Cheeseburger (another option) (another)
Lipstick: Nars Niagra (exact)
But really though, I’d like to say that although my mother completely killed my vibe, I’ve got it back and can say that yeah it’s pretty terrible on the hanger. Off the hanger it makes me feel all sassy and twirl around. You know, that normal thing people do when they pose for a photo, twirl. My mom can kill my dress vibe but no one is killing my twirl vibe.

This dress looks fab on you! I hate to iron too but seem to iron almost daily because everything gets so wrinkled in my overstuffed closet.

Love the dress! I'm dying at your mom's comment – it reminds me of my mom's infamous phrase of "it looks like pajamas."

I lovee this. I do the same thing — i HATE ironing haha! Also one time I was at Gap with my mom and trying stuff on and coming out of the dressing room to show her and get her opinion. Then I come out of the dressing room in what I wore to the store and she goes "oh, I don't like that" and iwas like "well too bad because I own this" hahaha sooooo awkward

It's so cute on you! I have a theory that with accessories and that amazing hair, you could make a potato sack look cute.

This dress on you is so you! Looking at you in this dress it's obvious it should be your go to dress to pick up your spirit. It just screams, be happy, twirl, laugh, giggle in delight! You paired the dress with the perfect shoes and accessories too.Those shoes were made for dancing, love the size of the purse and the long necklace is perfect. Can I steal your look? Maybe we wear the same size? lol

I have on-the-hanger-fug-itis. Mad cases. It makes me not want to wear half my closet and then when I decide to try it on I just want to sing "I feel pretty oh so pretty…"
Caroline @ Tasteful Style
This dress really is adorable! Also loving those shoes!

Beautiful dress and love your happy personality in the pictures!

At least she didn't say the opposite, right?
I'm also a huge fan of my new steamer. It's wonderful not having to pull out the ironing board and iron, I just flip a switch and in 30 seconds I'm ready to go. Of course I still never manage to steam things the night before which means I'm always running late in the morning if I pull out something wrinkled.
Chic on the Cheap

This dress (and actually this entire look) is ah-mazing. You're rocking the dropped waist. So classy!

HA! Only my sisters will make really blunt comments about what I'm wearing, for my mom it's usually more like "that's not long enough", but not so much any more. Maybe I've gotten more modest or maybe she just doesn't see me as much 😉
I love that this dress is fun and young looking, but still fits correctly and is long enough. I think if it were too short, it could look like a little girl's dress really fast! Well done.
♥ perfectly Priya
