I'm off for a two day VIP jaunt to Ibiza soon, and need some fabulous (but not expensive) clothes to wear.

Considerations:

I'm 35
I don't like my legs much
I've hear that no one wears heels to the 'cool' clubs in Ibiza - is this true? If so - shit help my legs only look good in heels!

Any help appreciated ladies Smile

I'm 35 and everytime I go clubbing in Ibiza I just wear vest top,denim shorts and flip flops. Not much help I'm afraid and I've never been in the VIP section of any of the clubs.

OK - thanks Disco. I'm going with a group of friends who I believe are planning to wear dresses. I don't want to look as if I'm not making an effort, especially as one of my friends is the wife of a DJ performing, hence VIP passes.

I'm not saying that denim shorts and vest isn't something I'd normally wear btw - wish I could it's much more my style!

Doesn't pretty much anything go in Ibiza apart from football shirts? I'd wear heels in VIP and a dress. This is lovely.

Budget?
Colours?
Size?

V jealous btw!

OK - thanks everyone.

Missbeehive - that first NAP dress is ADORABLE, but I'd be an extra small and it's not available. Macaroona - that final FC dress is also lovely, but it's not available in an 8.

Ummm... thanks noddy Hmm Grin

Any more suggestions?

I've just looked at my photos from Judgement Sunday at Eden and the VIP area is in the background behind Judge Jules.
Everything seems to go from LBD to black trousers with a smart vest top.
From memory at Privilege for Tiesto it was the same in the VIP area.

Thanks Clure - love orange. But if I wore a short skirt with sandals like that my legs would look chunky. I have to be VERY careful. Also I have a good tum, bum and back so would like to wear something more clingy on the body. But I love the more casual style of the dress - deffo along the right lines.

If you're not keen on showing leg what about a long floaty boho type skirt with a skimpy top? I'm thinking a 'I've just flown back from goa look'.

Is there anything by Matthew Williamson left in the NAP sale that will do?

shiney, I am considering maxi floaty too. I do like your idea of a skirt and tight top combination.

Hi Bolter that dress is nice but not really a clubbing dress me thinks.

I'm not keen on my legs so I would probably go for the maxi look. You could give your hair the tousled 'beach babe' look and some subtle face art/glitter. God I'm getting carried away wish I was going alas I'm now in 40s and clubbing days over boo hoo. Have fab time x

While maxi dresses and skirts are very nice, they're not always clubbing material (yes I do own some).
Have you thought about thin trousers and a skimpy top?
