jewelty 

People who wear a lot of jewelry or expensive jewelry (or both!) in order to appear rich and/or important and/or to show off their wealth for whatever reason. The concept of "jewelry" can, in this context, be expanded to include any status symbol that one may flaunt, from fancy villas in popular neighbourhoods to going shopping wearing Louboutin heels. The concept is to be contrasted with the concepts of "royalty", "nobility" and "old money" in general, which usually refer to people who are so famous due to their old money that they need not wear it in order to have people know about it. The concept is comparable to "nouveau riche" but it also applies to those merely mimicking the nouveau riche without actually having the bank account to match (or keep up!).

The Kardashians are jewelty - and so is the woman who tried to look like Kim Kardashian through plastic surgery!

lovestipation 

An inability to behave romantically out of some sort of fear of looking weak, or of getting ridiculed, or of only wanting to say certain things to or do certain things with "the one" and feeling dubious about the current significant other being it.

Jack was experiencing lovestipation with Mary to the point of treating her as a mere acquaintance in public even after a full year of dating, but he got over it by the time they got married.

sucrosity

Sucrose content of a sugar solution. Since sucrose is also the regular table sugar, the word can simply mean sugar content of a drink, juice or syrup.

In order to run our experiment, we had to increase the sucrosity of our solution gradually, by about 5 grams of sucrose at a time.

dextrosity

A: "I have been feeling very feint lately."

B: "Maybe you have low blood sugar, go get a blood test."
