in what crazy world does formal exclude pockets?
oh right, noodles in chili.
We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

Pockets? What are these pocket things you people are speaking of?
... okay, even though my wardrobe is almost completely devoid of pockets, I think pockets built into the side seams of full skirts (or dresses with full skirts) is a Good Idea. Far more elegant than sticking your lipstick & ID down the front of your corset.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Or affixing it to a headband.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Noodles UNDER chili. The difference is subtle, yet important. Like pockets in formal gowns.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
It's not fair to have the kerfuffle without erinaceous.
Lo, erinaceous hath spoken. With an exclamation point, even. (6th paragraph)
Bring it, pocket hoor!!!
Shut it, pocket Puritan.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I can't decide if erinaceous is on my side or yours, though, without more input.

Pockets should never be noticeable in formalwear unless the wearer is deliberately calling attention to them.
I am all about the deniability.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Still think pockets are fine in formalwear if done right. I'm all about thumbing my nose at the supposed arbiters of fashion.
Yay! I just finished and sent off my 3rd resume. I got news about the impending layoff 9 days ago so I feel really behind. Other folks have already landed interviews. Granted, I'm not a specialist so it's harder for me to just update one resume and send it everywhere. I hate resume-writing with a passion and nearly non-stop headaches haven't helped. So I'm going to say "Go Team Me!" for having completed one more of the dreaded things and sent it off.
