It does not have pockets, but it does…

This dress from Boden has sleeves, pockets, and a concealed back zip, and it’s fully lined — amazing!

(It looks like the dots are black onscreen, but the one reviewer…

Nic + Zoe has a whole line of classic pieces, most of which are machine washable, but I have not seen this ponte knit skirt before. It’s highly rated, it’s got a hidden elastic waist, and it comes in sizes XS–XL. I would check it out if you’re looking for a nice, knee-length, pull-on, non-vented…
