BOLERO = lively dance = jacket

And, BOLERO is also a "lively dance jacket" worn while dancing a bolero.

:idea: I'm thinking your answer actually is BOLERO, and you misunderstood (or disagree with) post #2.

I asked whether it's an &lit clue because I was curious to know if you realize that it is. My original answer remains:

****************

BOLERO

****************

PS: I edited post #2, to spell out everything.

What's yer definition of an &lit ?
I've seen two variations, on the Internet.

Keerect!

&lit clue: the entire clue is both a definition and a cryptic clue.

"Lively dance jacket" (as far as I can tell) is not an &lit,
but would be if the "jacket" was worn while dancing lively :confused:

It seems like your &lit definition is the same as mine.

They do wear them while dancing! A bolero is a jacket worn by male bolero dancers; that is, it is a "lively-dance" jacket. If they didn't name these jackets boleros because they started out as dance jackets, then I don't understand why they're called boleros!

I think you ought to have said (in post #3) that my answer is correct and 'nope' refers to your different thinking regarding the clue type. Seems like you wanna dance with me, instead!! :p

Can't explain that...I seem to remember seeing an answer that wasn't "bolero"...

It's in all caps! heh. (A different answer appears in post #4.)

Sounds like a breakfast-cereal container / directional-indicator.

Lol. Do you get it? :)
