what do people wear on a night out these days?

[m0therofdragons]

Long gone are my days of going out every Friday night. My going out clothes are at least 5 years old. I have no idea what to wear to a night out I've got coming up.
Meal out with friends I'd wear a dress but this is more a cocktail bar type night and my dresses seem a bit too ott. I was thinking jeans and top but I need a new top. .. Any ideas? Nothing too tight as I have a bit of a mummy tummy after twins.
God I feel old and out if touch

Oh and I'm 32 So want to look young ish.

Silk top

Plain black with a necklace maybe?

Satin black top, printed black and white trousers, heels, clutch. This is my outfit for a night out or jeans, vest and kimono jacket.

I cant do links on my phone but Next do some nice printed trousers.

Or what about some bright coloured jeans with metallic accessories? Might look a bit younger than the printed trousers.

I tend to wear jeans or black cropped trousers with a silky polyester top. I usually wear heels depending on how much walking is involved.

I wore green suede ankle boots, black tights, black mini and black sweater from Zara in a bit designer hipster type bar on Weds. I don't usually like all black, makes me look witchy, but this week is hectic so I'm throwing anything on.

Could you maybe wear a floaty dress with a scarf to direct attention away from your stomach (if you really want to hide it- I bet it's fine)?

Monki has some cheap, simple, not clingy dresses at the moment.

I tend to wear a dress. I have a lovely black lace one and 3 chiffon ones from Primark which I love.

I wear trousers every day so its always a dress to go out.

Rather than jeans, go for good trousers (skinny cropped, or otherwise slinky and evening-ish). Glamorous top. High heels, whether on boots or shoes. Actually I don't think the trousers matter as much as the top, cos mostly we interact with the top half, with the bottom half tucked away under tables etc. And it is of course ALL about the accessories of course.

I generally only ever wear dresses or skirts and tops for nights out. Or maybe something like wet look leggings and a cool longer top.
Loads and loads of accessories. More is more!
I wouldn't ever wear jeans or trousers unless the trousers were somthing v special. Makes me think of the noughties when everyone always wore jeans and a top.

No worries, pleasure to do a bit of online window shopping by proxy as a distraction to insomnia inducing cough and sinus headache :-) Want to go on shopping spree tomorrow though, but no nights out planned in near future and all monies earmarked for imminent house move....
