I want some new "club" clothes!

[Wonders10]

Hey everyone! I haven't been to a club in forever and I'm in desperate need of fun, club/bar appropriate clothes. Everything I own is very very casual. The problem lies in the fact that I'm not 100 lbs. It takes a little effort to find outfits that are cute, age appropriate, and look well on me. I don't care what size I am but I will never wear jeans that are 2 sizes too small just because you could almost get the zipper up and all the fat has been pushed to your chin. Anyway, I know there are real women on these boards - where do you like to shop for fun going out clothes or what are some of your favorite ensembles. Just some facts about me, I'm 26 and want to dress that way and still look a little sexy and well dressed even with the extra poundage.

I was thinking black gauchos and black heels with a cute top but I don't know what kind of shirt to get. I hate sleeveless.

Thanks everyone!

Check

or

They both have cute clothes!! I shop at both (I'm 25). My basic "going out" outfit is usually black pants, small heels, and a cleavage-y top. I should add that some of the clothes at Torrid can be a little too showy...

Thanks for the links. But actually part of the problem is that I'm too small for plus size clothes but I'm starting to be too big for regular clothes - or at least certain items don't fit right. It's incredibly frustrating. I don't plan on getting any bigger and I hope to be getting smaller soon but in the mean time, I still want to wear clothes and look cute lol! I'm also petite (in terms of height) at 5'3" so a lot of pants are too long or the petite sections doesn't come up to my size. Why don't designers realize that just because you are short, that doesn't mean you are thin?

Thanks again!

Ah. Well- I don't know. LB sells clothes from size 12-?

And I have trouble with the petite thing too. I'm 5'4", but I can usually get away with avg. sizes.

What about Old Navy- they usually have cute stuff in a big range of sizes, and they carry petites.
