How do I dress for a club?

I don't own skinny jeans, and I'm wondering if I could find a pair that is on the cheaper side since I probably won't wear them again (or very rarely). I *think* I can pull off skinny jeans, although they are a little out of my comfort zone. I'm 5'9 and normally 128lb, but I'm carrying 3 extra lb of what I like to call "nursing weight" that is all in my hips. Or maybe it is a trend that a 38-year old should just skip?

I've got until Saturday to figure this out!

I'm 5'9" and 138 and look great in a straight leg jean. You definately have the body for it, you just need to find a cut you like. You can absolutely pull them off. Skinny jeans may be a little young and are harder to wear.

i can't pull off skinny jeans, but i really don't think there is an age limit on them. i've seen them on 40+ women and with the right top and accessories, they don't look too young (think Stacey London from What Not to Wear). You just need to balance them properly with the right top.

5'9 and 132, I bet you can wear skinny jeans!

(OP here) Maybe I could, but I think I would be too self-conscious! I'm thinking a straight-leg would be more to my comfort zone, and I actually own a pair in a dark wash. I just don't wear them much for comfort because they are tight. Might be good for this occasion, though. Totally forgot I had them!
