Wayne’s Word – dapper

It’s a little nod to Wayne’s World, but instead of ‘party time, excellent’ (if you are aware of the cult nineties classic) I will be diving into one WORD each day. It could be something I learned, something bizarre that happened, a favourite word that I have rediscovered or just a thought that won’t leave me alone.

If you’re joining in on today’s word, feel free to use this tag to connect your post to the series: #WaynesWord

Today’s word is DAPPER.

In Northern Ireland, dapper means looking sharp, neat, trim and stylish. It can often be used for someone who has made an effort but keeping it simple, without going overboard.

I recently bought a new leather jacket in Perth that I have been looking for ages and I instantly felt dapper.

It isn’t just about clothes, it’s a mood. A little confidence, a bit of style, and the sense that you’ve got it together, even just for a moment.
