What to wear on night out?

I’m going on a works night out in a couple of weeks. Nice meal, few drinks in a city centre restaurant/bar. Lots of young people! I’m 46 and a size 16. I think I’m quite youthful looking but I definitely don’t look young! I want to look attractive and put together and feel good about myself. I prefer dresses and skirts to trousers. Usually with opaques. Has anyone got any good suggestions?

My relative has just died at 92 … So I’m finding it a bit odd that you seem to be preparing to spend the next 46 years of your life apologising for not looking ‘young’. Does that seem reasonable to you? Can you not just enjoy being the age you are?

You haven’t given a budget. For work related things, whether for buying or just for inspiration, I like
