If you're 50ish, what do you wear for a night out?

I don't know what looks good anymore. Perimenopausal middle means I can't wear anything too fitted around the middle. I'm very much a jeans and jumper/t-shirt person, with a pair of trainers. I have a few 50th parties coming up, mostly in pubs but parties the none the less, and I just want to feel good about myself. I'm a 12-14 with big boobs. I'm so sick of jeans, but they're my comfort zone and I don't like putting myself out there too much. I found it much easier to dress up jeans when I could wear skinnies, but they look dated now and any alternatives just seem too casual. Desperate for inspiration please.

I would recommend Fairlie Curved. It started as an Instagram styling page for women with larger chests and now sells clothing as well. Loads of good ideas how to style things to flatter your figure and definitely suitable for your age group.

Currently probably wide leg black cargos and trainers, nice black top. I'm 50 but my idea of a nice night out involves a club . For restaurant, maybe a dress, and trainers
So over uncomfortable footwear and heels feel dated

We're going out this weekend and I've packed monsoon wide legged trousers with a rust and green pattern on a cream background and a rust Henley top. Will try and pack my black ankle boots..
