Well, the pocket looks fine, but my question is...what do you need a pocket for when you're getting out of the bathtub?

I like pocket's...so I add them when I can ...I thought it made the wrap look a little different...and they come in handy if you need carry your makeup and junk to another room...

I'm glad someone else asked about the pocket...I don't use pockets much. (except in my jeans to carry chapstick or loose change). Chrys

I vote for the pocket too. You can put tissues in it. Dorothy |

I've seen these in stores with pockets. They can be useful if you've forgotten to take off your jewelry too, before you get in the shower. Plus, I love the monogram! It really adds the personal touch. Peggy

I used to put them in my bra if I didn't have any place else to carry them (in college, at camps, etc.) Once, I put one in my bathing suit bra to carry it a few hundred feet to a latrine. A (boy) friend came up behind me and threw a cup of water over my shoulder....I gained about 2 cup sizes as the thing exploded!

I liked it a lot too and I would definitely keep the pocket in. I love pockets too. Violet I've decided to live forever - so far, so good.

I like the looks of that Bren, and I really like the embroidery on it! My MIL made me one a few years ago out of turquoise terry cloth (I hate turquoise) with forest green bias binding on it. It ended up being a dog towel, I figured being color blind, they would think it was grey and black!!
