NYT Strands Today (Game #115): The Answers
The answers to today's 115th Strands game are…
- ELEGANT
- ELEGANT
- HANDSOME
- SPECTACULAR
- ELEGANT
- SHOW OFF
- DRIP
- SPANGRAM: FASHIONISTA
- My rating: Moderate
- My score: Perfect
I am as far from being a FASHIONISTA as a human being can be, and I am not ashamed of that fact. That may explain why I had a hard time finding some of the answers today. Some were easy; for example, CHIC, DAPPER, SNAZZY stood out fairly quickly and made a lot of sense in the context of the theme track and spangram. However, POSH confused me; He would never have considered it to be related to fashion, particularly, although I suppose it makes some sense.
DRIPPY also tripped me up; was the last one I got, when the answer couldn't be anything else, and I suspect I wouldn't have solved it if it weren't by default. But my struggles may not be shared by anyone else, or certainly by those of you who spend more time thinking about clothes than I do.
