There's something about a pocket that lends you a little bit more security. Sure, you can use it to store your lipstick or your phone, but you can also slip your hand into one, striking a confident, cool-girl pose. Pockets are a detail that often goes unnoticed — especially on a dress. But, there's no doubt that they offer a little something extra. And, right now — in the middle of Summer, when we're tired of wearing the same old sundresses — that's exactly what we need. Scroll down to find our favorite pocket dresses that run the gamut from laid-back bohemian to structured prep.
