Made from a recycled polyester/spandex blend, it’s slightly stretchy and totally breathable, ideal for popping on when you don’t feel like picking out an outfit (or worse, wearing pants).

There are a lot of expensive dresses out there with pockets (more than you think, tbh), but it’s Brochu Walker’s Havana Mini Dress that’s worth every penny. First, it’s adorable, stitched in a tiered, relaxed design that’s roomy, breezy, and fun. Of course, it has pockets, as well as a button-up design that you can open or close to your liking, puff sleeves, and a chic collar. Considering its high-quality design, luxurious feel, and versatile style, we think it’s worth every penny.

Ever since first slipping into this dress, I’ve been dreaming of adding more colors to my closet. The relaxed, shift linen dress has wide straps and a roomy silhouette that looks casual on its own but could easily be dressed up with a sheer button-down layered underneath. It’s also worth mentioning that despite the relaxed design, the pockets on this dress remain sturdy even when filled with heavier objects like my phone. If you’re after a linen-y coastal grandma summer, look no further than this frock.

The Hill House Home Ophelia Dress is as classic as it gets in terms of a feminine silhouette. It’s lightweight, breathable, and body-hugging in all the right places while looking like something straight off the set of Bridgerton. That said, I find that it runs a tad small. I own the Hill House Home Nap Dress in an XL, which is admittedly too roomy. As such, I sized down to a large for the Ophelia dress but would have been better off with an XL after all.

Whether you’re headed to Nashville or a country concert, or you simply prefer a more form-fitting silhouette, the Show Me Your Mumu Outlaw Dress is an adorable option.

Just keep in mind that since it’s so snug, it will likely show whatever you put in your pockets.

Of all the exercise dresses, Girlfriend Collective’s stands out for its inclusive sizing, sustainable fabric, and wear-everywhere look and feel. True to the brand’s eco-friendly ethos, it’s made from polyester sourced from recycled water bottles—21 to be exact. This doesn’t mean it feels plastick-y—a blend of spandex makes it buttery smooth, sculpting, and compressive enough without being restrictive, an ideal ‘fit for everything from pilates to picking up the kids from school.

I’d had this statement ruffle midi dress in my cart for months before finally getting my hands on it. While the breezy cotton silhouette runs slightly large, the bow-tie back makes it easy to tailor to your figure. Plus, the ruffles are such a vibe. I want it in every color now.

A bridesmaid dress with pockets? We’re swooning—especially since it’s sold in basically a million colors. Best of all, it’s affordable! For less than $100, this pretty dress, complete with trendy flutter sleeves, can be yours. (Fun Fact: I’m wearing this exact dress in my best friend’s wedding later this year.) One thing to keep in mind: It’s not sold in traditional numeric sizing, so you may want to have someone help you take your measurements for the most accurate size selection.

Made with Beyond Yoga’s iconic Spacedye fabric (which is as close to air as you can get for material), the At the Ready dress is the dress version of the brand’s famous leggings (which we also love). It’s a casual dress you can dress up or down, with its square neck giving it a more sophisticated fit than your standard shift or pull-on dress. This is a dress you can simply pull or throw on, which means it’s been our editorial commerce director’s easy summer go-to for two years now (she has it in several colors). Stretchy, soft, and the perfect midi length, you’ll be grabbing for this dress whether you’ve got plans to go out or stay in and catch on TV. And yes—it has deep pockets to carry all your snacks.
