Rack To Reality: I Heart Ronson Maxi + Giveaway

by cheapchica11 on June 15, 2011

I Heart Ronson Maxi Dress: $49.99

Click it/Skip it: Click it!!

In case you were wondering what my go-style is this summer…it’s the maxi dress.  I love the stylish ease that comes with wearing one of these and while I would typically avoid buying one in all black, this style from the I Heart Ronson line at JCPenney got me!  I LOVE IT!

Fit: Like most of the IHR collection, this runs big.  I got a XS and it still feels a tiny bit big on my so my reccomendation is to size down.  The dress has a pretty generous cut and while the look is loose and flowy, you don’t want to be swimming in all this material.  I like my maxis long enough so I have the option to wear it with heels or flats so don’t worry if you’re tall…it’s plenty long!

Shopper’s Notes: I am completely obsessed with material and the details on this dress.  It easily looks like it cost me a a fortune! The tassels at the bust add a really fun touch and I love the chiffon…albeit poly, it’s not itchy and feels like the real deal. I will suggest that you add your own skinny belt (try a braided style!) to give it that extra edge and to help define your waist!  You’re going to fall in love with this dress…

which is why I want one of you to have it or a $50 giftcard to JCPenney for FREE…winner’s choice! To enter this give-a-way, all you have to do is leave a comment on this post letting me know how you’d wear this fabulous maxi and it can be yours! Good Luck!

NOTE: Giveaway open to US residents only.  Winner will be notified via email on 6/20.

23 Kristin 06.15.11 at 7:02 am

24 Nicole in big D 06.15.11 at 7:04 am

I am a stay at home mom. I would wear this maxi dress with….

40 Jillian 06.15.11 at 8:04 am

I’m on the shorter side (5 nothing) and i love how maxi dresses make me seem a tiny bit taller. I could almost claim to be 5′1″!

41 LB 06.15.11 at 8:05 am

I would style it with a bright skinny belt, stacked bangles and simple sandals. So pretty!

42 Rashidah 06.15.11 at 8:10 am

43 Mary Griffin 06.15.11 at 8:21 am

I recently had a baby and this dress would perfectly camouflage my baby belly that’s not back to it’s normal state! I’d pair it with metallic sandals, large gold hoops and a fab wide brimmed straw sunhat.

44 Ali 06.15.11 at 8:22 am

Pick me! This would be perfect for date night with the man or a day of shopping in Philly…so many ways to style! I think I would go with a stack of wooden & metal bracelets, a simple chain necklace, a pop of color in the belt (coral maybe?), and metal gypsy-ish earrings. I’m only 5′2″, so wedge heels would be a must. I love Affina from Aldo.

45 Nic 06.15.11 at 8:24 am

Gorgeous! I love maxis! I would wear it with some strappy sandals and my big dangly earrings!

46 Lori 06.15.11 at 8:25 am

48 Lauren L 06.15.11 at 8:29 am

I imagine it with my chunky brown platforms, push up bra and no belt. My hair long and wavy and maybe a head-band. Hippie-look with heels :)

49 blueka 06.15.11 at 8:30 am

I’d have to add color – bracelets or a colorful belt or something. I love black because then I can easily add whatever color fits my mood best!!

54 Jenna 06.15.11 at 8:47 am

a super fun brimmed floppy hat, a clunky turquoise necklace (gold accents), a tan skinny belt, some fine (as in skinny :) ) gold bangels and a pair of espadrilles. Gives it that “I’m not trying too hard” look but would still look super trendy and comfy … a girl’s dream ;)

55 dairylady 06.15.11 at 8:48 am

would probably give to one of my daughters or granddaughters. I love it.

56 Den 06.15.11 at 8:48 am

61 Alyssa 06.15.11 at 9:08 am

Love this hip hippie look!! I’d wear it to Houston, Texas when I go visit my lover next month who is traveling for the summertime! It’s hot and steamy there in July so I’d wear it with my hair up, gold hoops and my flat white sandals I got from Forever 21. LOVE.

62 Ally 06.15.11 at 9:15 am

Great versatile dress! I pair it with a similar style belt but in gold, gold gladiator sandals, a solid colored head scarf (with hair pulled back in a messy bun), and patterned bangles…. and some fab sun glasses of course.

63 Shannon 06.15.11 at 9:17 am

66 Sydney S 06.15.11 at 9:22 am

69 Sarah 06.15.11 at 9:29 am

I love maxi dresses and the I Heart Ronson line is phenomenal! I’d wear this maxi dress with a bright colored statement necklace, wedge heels, bangles, and a jean jacket.

70 fshnonmymind 06.15.11 at 9:31 am

I love the i <3 Ronson collection at JCPenney, it's pretty much the only reason I go into the store.

This is a great maxi dress and I think I would wear it with a nice turban/headband, a statement necklace and some colorful sandals. If the weather isn't too hot, I might add some kind of edgy denim vest.

71 Cadian 06.15.11 at 9:33 am

I would wear this beautiful dress on my upcoming anniversary with my beau! I would rock it with a long gold necklace, bangles and cute wedges! I would also wear a cute ponytail braid on the side. This is the prefect maxi to feel amazing in without overdoing it!

73 Emily R. 06.15.11 at 9:48 am

Great versatile dress – it can be accessorized in so many ways! The first time I wear it I would pair it with a skinny braided gold belt, stack some beaded tribal bangles and bracelets, and some great cut-out wedges with a 70’s feel.

74 Carolyn 06.15.11 at 9:51 am

Since my legs are longer I would wear this dress with some cute strappy, braided metallic flat sandals, a big floppy hat, gold hoop earrings, my hair in a messy low bun, a brown belt and my gold watch! Perfect for Summer patio weather!

75 brenda 06.15.11 at 9:52 am

So I think I would take this in a sleek direction but still keep the casual vibe of the dress. I”m envisioning…. hair in low ponytail with gold hoops along with an oversize men’s style gold watch. I’d forgo the belt and opt for a cropped dark denim jacket. I’d finish with a Stuart Weitzman Alex wedge. :)

76 Randi 06.15.11 at 10:04 am

I would love to win this dress! I love it! I am a newly wed and am always looking for new ways to “wow” my husband. I never want him to get bored ;) .

77 Kerensa 06.15.11 at 10:06 am

87 franci 06.15.11 at 10:39 am

I’m feeling the 70s for the summer. So I’d wear wear big square shades with a cognac colored floppy hat. For jewelry I’d wear vintage pieces: cocktail rings and thin beaded necklace. I don’t want my dress to drag, so platform Jeffrey Campbell shoes it is!

89 Roz 06.15.11 at 10:43 am

Love it!! Would wear it in a heartbeat.

90 Jocelyn 06.15.11 at 11:01 am

I’d wear it to the Del Mar races in August with a big hat that I’m going to decorate, my sunglasses and sandal wedges to match the hat, and maybe a cardi for later on…so cute! Oh, and I’d probably take out the straps in the back and make it halter style. I can just imagine it in my head…

111 M.J. 06.15.11 at 1:11 pm

I have a wedding to go in mexico and I’m arriving right before the rehearsal dinner and at the same time seeing my long distance boyfriend for the first time in 4 months!!!

But I could throw on some black wedges and a chunky turquoise necklace/silver layered bangles once I got to the resort and be set for dinner too!

I would wear it with my new comfy wedges and let the dress speak for itself with a simple brown braided belt =)

127 Elizabeth 06.15.11 at 3:04 pm

What a great dress this would be for this summer!! I’d probably wear it with cognac wedges and clutch and lots of antique gold bangles and earrings. It would be so fun and easy to style this multiple ways. Here’s hoping! :)

This would be my 1st maxi dress. I’m 5′2 but would love to wear this fabulous dress to an outdoor festival or summer concert in NYC… Even to vist my BFF at her new home in the Hamptons! So excited to have a wonderful adventurous summer!

137 Dayany 06.15.11 at 4:20 pm

If I could I would wear it everyday, but sunday brunch is the perfect excuse to wear it!

138 Kim C. 06.15.11 at 4:38 pm

I love the fact that these maxi’s are currently all the rage. It’s functional for all shapes and sizes. Plus the color helps me look slimmer as well. Throw it on with some chunky wood bangles, braided belt, 4inch animal print wedge. Woohoo! I already feel 20 pounds lighter just thinking about it. Nice find for sure!

139 lesley 06.15.11 at 4:45 pm

171 Kathryn 06.16.11 at 1:45 am

I would wear this dress to class, casual drinks with friends, and even as a coverup after a day at the beach. This dress is perfect for the sunny Southern California weather I am lucky enough to live in. I’d dress it up with a cognac-colored leather belt, an armful of bangles, and a fun pair of sandals. An alternative would be some great turquoise jewelry I inherited from my grandmother. The black dress would really compliment the colors.

172 Nicole 06.16.11 at 2:38 am

I would wear this with a pair of gladiator sandals with minimal jewelry like a couple of gold rings. And I would finish the look with a pair of over-sized sunglasses and a small, bright crossbody bag.

178 Karen 06.16.11 at 11:01 am

I would pair it with shots of crisp white!! There’s nothing as striking as stark black and white, and I would have so much fun finding whites to go with this! Maybe I’d inject a flash of color in one way— a necklace or bag in turquoise!

179 Joy 06.16.11 at 11:51 am

Ooh! it’s so pretty and versatile. I’d wear it everywhere this summer!

189 Amanda 06.16.11 at 4:57 pm

What a cute maxi! For a casual day in Philly, I’d style it with a bright belt – probably coral or teal, a bunch of vintage sterling silver bangles from my grandmother, a fun pair of silver earrings, and low black wedges. I think the bright belt and silver accessories would be the right amount of color and shine. If I’m feeling funky, I might add a fedora!

190 Andrea 06.16.11 at 5:57 pm

This dress would look fab in the fall/winter with a pair of tan cowboy boots and a denim jacket…I’m very into coral colored sandals this summer, and would totally rock this dress with a pair and matching coral belt!

197 Dominique 06.17.11 at 6:16 pm
198 Elizabeth 06.17.11 at 9:52 pm

This dress is so cute! I’d wear this dress with a skinny silver, metal-like belt and a pair red shoes, either wedges of flats. I would keep the jewelry simple with maybe small silver hoops or studs and depending on the occasion a sparkly clutch or a colorful over sized bag.

199 Deanna G. 06.18.11 at 6:39 am

202 Janet 06.18.11 at 3:49 pm

I would wear this dress as is, no belt. My hair down (flowy) with a tiny braid on each side pulled to the back, a long single beaded necklace, barefooted at my “girls getaway” to the beach-next month.

203 Lyn 06.18.11 at 6:07 pm

I would do femme + biker look with this dress paired with light brown studded short leather flight jacket and short top boots-low heal. Aweswome
