Women like wearing dresses. But women LOVE wearing dresses with pockets.
With September officially in full-swing, it’s hard not to get into the ‘back to school’ mindset. If you’re anything like me, making sure your wardrobe is up-to-date is all part of the thrill and ilicits the same joy as buying a new pencil case did back then. But despite it being meteorological autumn, it seems the weather hasn’t got the memo just yet. With the hot sunshine still beating down on us, it seems a little silly thinking about coats. Luckily, there are plenty of ways to get stuck into the action with versatile pieces that you can wear now and later starting with the humble dress.
But we’re not talking about any old dress, oh no. Because not all dresses are created equal, and this autumn has seen the resurgence of what is arguably the most popular dresses of all - dresses with pockets. But just why do women get so overjoyed when presented with pockets?
Whenever a dress has pockets, it’s a big deal for us. It's the result of years of being saddled with no pockets whatsoever or, even worse, fooled with fake pockets in jackets or jeans. So, being treated to real pockets on anything feels like a true modern-day victory, and when combined with one of our favourite bits of clothing like a dress, it's pure bliss. After all, pockets aren't just a sneaky place to hide your phone, keys or lipstick – they instantly make you feel more relaxed and comfortable too. Great for cold hands in the cold weather that will shortly be with us or if you struggle to know what to do with them in photos.
