It’s as if you took your date dress and consciously uncoupled it. So modern!
So, the point of what I am wearing today is that it looks like a dress, but it’s not a dress. It’s a co-ord, which means two matching soft-separate pieces that go together to make an outfit. By soft-separate, I mean a top and bottom in cotton, like this one, or silk or knit, not a tailored suit. And by matching, I mean in the same colour and/or print. (Black doesn’t count.) And, no, not a bikini.
Is co-ord really a word? Well, Brexit wasn’t a word. Bromance wasn’t a word. Was quinoa a word before this decade? OK, maybe technically, but not one anyone used, so it hardly counts. And, no, we can’t call them matching soft-separates, because that sounds too 1970s regional department store. So co-ord is a word as of, well, now.
