Chic
Description: Stylish or smart. Chic (a French word adopted by the British) is often used to describe how individual garments or ensembles make a person look, but what is and what is not chic is difficult to define. Chic refers to someone who wears stylish clothes with ease and whose outfit is arresting, modern, and elegant.
