If you were in your 40s and going out 'clubbing' what would you wear?

I usually wear skinnies and high heels but am getting bored of it. I have decent legs but hate my norks.

If skinnies, are there any nice tops around? If not skinnies, what?

thats worky too then? no diff
at least the one i posted had leatherette trim! Wink

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 15/09/2013 15:49

I tried the M&S bodycon one on. Ten a bit tight and 12 huge.

This? I like it on the model but it would probably look bloody awful on me.

i cant like high waisted things as i am tres short in body and I tend to find they look like giant nappies on everyone

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 15/09/2013 15:56
