Linniesque 

A term which describes the combination of classic posh and rustic urban styles. Created by Frau Faustina in one of her writings in which the main character, Linnie, is a west-end girl who seeks thrills on the other side of town. Her style is what’s described as ‘linniesque’. She pairs Gucci with old jeans, worn out bra top with Prada, you just never know!
Gosh, Elizabeth! Your Gaultier dress, accompanied by your troublesome new boyfriend is very linniesque.”
