NYT Strands today (game #195): the answers
The answers to today's Strands game #195 are…
- BELT
- BAG
- SCARF
- JEWELRY
- LOOK
- GLASSES
- SPANGRAM: ACCESSORIZATION
- My rating: Easy
- My rating: Perfect
Anyone who knows me will know that fashion is not my strong suit. I just don't care. That's why the concept of ACCESSORIES is a bit foreign to me: I just wear jeans and a T-shirt, I don't need add Anything like that. Despite this inherent handicap, I managed to solve this Stand puzzle fairly easily, because it really is quite easy.
I'm not sure the themed track, Elements of Style, helped me much, but finding BELT and BAG by accident definitely did, and after that it was just a matter of racking my brain to find things that fashionable people could wear. After a little more time than I probably should have needed, I got them all.
