A few words related to clothes:
- bucket bag: a type of bag (really?); I couldn’t find a definition, but I think the expression is almost tautological.
- lace: cord (of a shoe); spirits added to a non-alcoholic beverage; a type of light fabric.
- tee: another word for T-shirt (?)
- faux: fake, artificial (from French, meaning “false”)
- tank top: a piece of clothing like a sweater (British) or a T-shirt (American), but with no sleeves.
