What does a 30+ year old wear out clubbing?

I need something with sleeves and my legs have to be covered - either with boots or trousers.

I have no idea what people wear out these days!

Please help!

Both those are great. I love the black trousers she is wearing too. Depends which looks best with your jacket and jazz it up with some big earrings or necklace and silver bangles.

KP86 · 06/04/2016 21:38

I personally prefer the second one as it's more 'carefree'.

Both would look lovely, so go with whichever you like best. Big accessories needed!

I'm 40 and last time I went clubbing, I wore snakeskin print jeans, a long lacy camisole and a feather shrug.

Have a lovely time! Wine

wibblewobble8 · 06/04/2016 22:04

idk, im 35 and Id think of both of those shirts as workwear.

wibblewobble8 · 06/04/2016 22:06

this blouse seems a bit more night out

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 06/04/2016 22:13

I'm (much) older than 35 - I;d wear those white shirts to the pub, but not to go dancing in.

I like this

Silk cami

ItGoesWithoutSaying · 07/04/2016 09:30

If I'm going out with legs covered, I'd go for something like the leather or coated skinnies (rather than jeans) with the type of tops mentioned above.

I love my disco pants for this kind of thing but fear they may be going out of fashion Sad.

FabFlo · 07/04/2016 13:14

I'm more confused than ever, I don't want to go out in a work wear top.

However I am now leaning towards leather look leggings

I think that because the leather look leggings are quite sexy, a fairly conservative top would look good. I like the way the leggings have been styled in this picture.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 07/04/2016 13:27

I really don't like leather look leggings. I don't think they flatter many people.

SuperFlyHigh · 07/04/2016 13:41

Bear in mind if you are dancing and it's hot in the venue the shirts will soon be too hot!

Tons of tops short sleeves or sleeveless try warehouse and Zara

If really daring a Bardot off shoulder top would be nice

SuperFlyHigh · 07/04/2016 13:42

Remus I agree re leather look leggings had a slim friend who loves them but even on her just looked cheap and dare I say it sleazy!

heron98 · 07/04/2016 14:33

It depends on the venue, I guess.

But if I go out I usually wear jeans, trainers and a nice vest top.

Voteforpedr0 · 07/04/2016 14:43

Forget leather look trousers, how are you supposed to dance in them ? Sweat much ? Do you want to let your hair down and have a fun night ? Or are you going to pose ? Skirt, casual top and trainers or an a-line skirt, blouse and heels for the latter.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 07/04/2016 16:45

I love the look of leather look or coated skinnies. I can dance in mine. Just pick some that have some stretch in them.
Sorry if you're now more confused than ever by all the opinions OP. I think everyone has different tastes and styles so probably best to go with whatever makes you feel good. Smile

FabFlo · 07/04/2016 16:50

No don't leave me to do this by myself! ShockGrin

Does it have to be white?

Jaimx86 · 07/04/2016 17:11

I wouldn't plain wear white/cream in case a numpty spilt a drink on me, although I do think those last two tops you've posted would be great for the pub.
I've attached pics of tops I like from Topshop and ASOS
