Word of the day - FRIPPERY

The word today is Frippery 

Frippery is a noun and from my research means the following:

- Something showy, trivial and not essential.

- Pretentious and indulgent show of excess or finery.

- Looking impressive but useless.



You exhibit Frippery by weaving things in your hair (Mr Richards).

A feather boa and a fur covered wallet are fripperies.


If you need more start here or here.
