sprucely
In dapper fashion
Sprucely means in a neat, trim, well-groomed manner: He was sprucely dressed in a new suit.
The word suggests careful attention to appearance—everything tidy and in place.
It derives from spruce, meaning smartly dressed, though both word and adverb are somewhat old-fashioned.
