When I saw this 'Candy Dress' photo shoot from Arina Varga, I couldn't help but recall the Post-It note dress by Ashley Isham that Lady GaGa wore to her appearance on 'Friday Night With Jonathan Ross.' The layered tiles on this dress certainly remind me of Post-It notes, and the summery colorway is a beautiful mix.

Check out the Lady GaGa Post-It note dress below, as well as some other clever uses for this [office staple](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stabilo-boss).
