I'm so irritated!! I ordered the cutest dress ever and I absolutely love it, but the zipper is sticking. Its one of those inset zippers on the side and although the dress DOES fit, I can't get the zipper to budge past a certain spot. I was hoping to take it with me on my getaway this weekend, but I'm not going to pack it if I can't get it zipped!! Any tricks for getting a zipper to go all the way up smoothly?? (is it crazy I was thinking about trying to put some LUBE on it??)

Well when my zippers get stuck, it tends to be that a teeny portion of the fabric got jammed in the slider somehow, so I use my nails to try and get the fabric free while I wiggle the zipper a bit.
Lube might help, depending on why and how it's stuck though. Is it possible the zipper teeth got damaged somehow and won't let the slider past the messed up part?
