What are people wearing to go out?

For example to a meal at a nice, but not overly posh/expensive restaurant. In particular, if people are no longer wearing heels, and I want a change from my trusty old boot heels, what shoes do you wear??

Since having DC2 I’m struggling in general with finding my style again but when going out with friends I feel clueless and I feel like I always get it wrong! I’d say I tend to go more towards casual but nice and put together, rather than overly dressed up. For context I’m mid height, fairly slim and early 30s.

I just don't feel 'out out' in flat shoes. I wore heeled ankle boots last weekend to a party and felt good. Slim jeans but not skinny. Nice blouse.

I've bought block heel mid-calf laced boots for this winter.

Comfortable, easy to wear, enough lift to make a slimmer silhouette and they work with dresses and skirts as well as under jeans.

Heeled boots are usually my go to as well, and I agree @MorrisZapp I don’t generally feel very dressed up in flats either!

Although my original post mentioned shoes specifically, I’m curious about people’s full outfit choices too as I always struggle!

I've just bought a smart pair of flat boots, medical reasons not fashion)

I intend to wear them with a satin leopard print skirt and a cream fluffy jumper.

That outfit sounds so lovely!
