What do 30 yr olds (fat ones at that) wear to go clubbing?

...in a nutshell.

I'm going on a 'hag' (a stag & hen...I'm the hen) do with some work mates in a couple of weeks and I am nearly the oldest and certainly the chunkiest (sz18) female going.

It's been so long since I've been to a club I've no idea what goes. Last time I wore full length docs, stripey tights and a mini-skirt I think

Don't really want to do nice trousers/sparkly top combo and all my dresses are a bit too dressy.

Ok, first off repeat after me... I am not fat I am just curvy!

Also, I bet you a gorgeous and when you are going out its all about the confidence in which you wear an outfit which will help you to pull it off!

How do you feel about your legs, is getting them out an option or would you feel more comfortable wearing dark blue or black jeans instead?!?! Everyone is a different size and we all carry our weight differently iykwim!
these jeans are not too bad and I find they really pull you in plus pretty cheap just for a night out!

Top wise, arms out or covered and large bust or not and I shall see what I can find online! I'm an 18 too and love a challenge to dress us non skinnies as best as we can!

Leggings and a floaty top.

Ah, well fat is fat...I'm pretty comfortable with my figure and am pretty good in choosing clothes for other occassions.

My calves and ankles are good...always wear leggings/tights if going shorter than on the knee. No issues with my arms. I have big boobs, much smaller waist, big bum...the differential is such that the Gok-ish nipped in look makes me look like an egg timer rather than an hourglass!

I own those jean! But I'm not keen on it for proper going out wear.

Ooooooooooooooh please get a Vivien of Holloway dress!!!!!!! Big boobs, small waist would be perfect with a polka dot swishy dress with a poufy petticoat and peep-toe heels. Ageless and timeless and neither dressy nor dressed-down IMO. And shows off arms/calves/ankles.

I would buy one in every colour if I could, but am too pregnant at the moment, so if you would buy one instead that would be great

Lol @ egg timer... how I dream of a waist again - one day!

How about this dress, would look fab with leggings or opaque tights and some killer heels

If that's a bit too dressy... how about this?!?!
