As the focus of most warm weather wardrobes, dresses have always received top honors.  And with the surge of boots, tights and leggings, dresses have become a year round necessity. But as of late a new element is popping up all over dresses: Pockets! Like the creamer in your coffee, pockets add a little extra sweetness and ease to the already comfortable spring staple. Pocket dresses have ascended from couture designers to major retailers as a favorite for red carpet events and casual daytime outtings. And judging from our charming selection,  these extra compartments have already become an all around favorite.
