Pitiful pockets

It's 2012 and there are so many new and exciting innovations around us that make life interesting and easier. So what's the excuse for pockets not being mandatory in all dresses and skirts?  I kind of feel like I'm talking in some sort of Stone Age era where pockets are a new invention.  But seriously, few things are more exciting than finding an awesome skirt with pockets since it's relatively rare.  Is this a business economics thing?  Do they think that selling skirts with pockets will suddenly make bag sales drop because females will adapt to the male practice of utilizing pockets as a butt-purse, carrying every little thing in our back pocket?

I'm not asking for much.  All I want are skirts with pockets.  Oh, functional pockets are key too.  What's up with those pockets that don't even fit a credit card inside them!

    when I find a skirt with pockets it's always an instant winner for me! And then when I wear it it's compulsory that I have at least one hand in a pocket at all times!

    Ha! This post made me smile. I mean "butt-purse"...genius! I'm pro pockets myself. I'm happy to have 4 dresses now that have pockets and I'm hoping that number will only grow. This skirt is so lovely! I love how you paired it with the vest. Thanks so much for stopping by my blog. I've been reading through your posts and must say you've got great style and incredible talent as well. Happy Monday to you! XO

    This outfit is great on you. I really love the dress. If I found dresses like this, I would never wear pants.

    Yeah I always feel a little lost without pockets, although sometimes they can ruin the look of a skirt if the materials thin. Love the floral print :)

    That skirt is so cute, and it is true, all skirts should have pockets.
