Pockets. Put your hands and other things in them. They’re on all sorts of clothes and they’re on animals too; namely marsupials. Sometimes, marsupials inspire the pockets on clothes. For example, you know how hoodys have that pocket on them that cover your belly? Those pockets are called kangaroo pockets. Whislt ‘roos use those pocketses to put their babies in, I use mine for my i-pod sometimes and I’ve noticed my boyfriend putting his metrocard, his change, and his keys in his pockets. Another thing I did notice, and this was a few years ago, is that the pocket has emerged as the biggest innovation in fashion to influence the mainstream in a long time.

BECAUSE, pockets are fucking everywhere. I remember watching a Sex and the City episode in like 2004 and sjp’s character had this kickass dress with pockets. This was the first I’d heard of the dress-pocket phenomenon. I liked what I saw, and immediately wished I could afford better than Rt.21 clothes. Man, I wished I could afford the Gap. (Now my yearnings tend towards Thakoon; more mature, more dollaz) Pockets also make an important appearance in Lord of the Rings, when Gollum and Bilbo engage in a legendary riddle contest over what Bilbo has in his pocket. (Gollum loses, because Bilbo had The Ring in his pocket which Gollum thought was his, so how could Bilbo have it in his pocket, the nasty hobbit?)

But then, people were wearing pockets on the red carpet:

For example. But the pockets trend continued to sweep the nation. People embraced the pocket as an emblem of simpler times: pockets used to be practical back when we were all Indians or Farmers or something and actually needed to carry stuff with us. America, and Fashionable People, wanted to be reminded of yore when practicality was NECCESSARY instead of a trend, a luxury. See?

Anyway. Demand must keep up with consumption. Designers continue to make dresses with pockets, which makes everyone happy because pockets make pretentious people go “Oh wow, I love what the artiste did with the pockets! So innovative and unexpected!” and it makes the little girlies go “Wheee pockets on my jersey dress make me seem glamourous!” Such as: Oscar de la Renta /Target (the blue and red dress; respectively)

Pants can have pockets too- so guys can masturbate at school or at work.
