1 understated: This is the best choice here. If an item of clothing is "understated", it is "discreet", "subtle", or "classic". In the article, we read that the cufflinks and watch you wear with your power suit should be "understated". In a different context, to "make an understatement" is the OPPOSITE of "to exaggerate".
1 decent: The term "decent" means "correct", "proper", or "reasonable". It's not the best answer here.
1 polished: To "polish" something (shoes, a wooden floor, etc.) is to make it shine. "Polished" means "well-maintained" or "shiny", and it isn't the best answer here.
2 polished: "Polished" is the term we were looking for here. To "polish" something (shoes, a wooden floor, etc.) is to make it shine. Examples: "You should always polish your shoes before a job interview". We can also use "to polish" in a figurative context, meaning "to add the final touches to something". Example: "This business plan is ok, but you'll need to polish it before it's ready".
2 decent: The term "decent" means "correct", "proper", or "reasonable". It's not the best answer here.
2 understated: If an item of clothing is "understated", it is "discreet", "subtle", or "classic". This isn't the best choice here.
3 decent: "Decent" is the best choice here. If something is "decent", it is "correct", "reasonable", or "proper". A "decent" raincoat is a jacket which protects you from the rain. In the article, we read about "a decent tailor", which is a tailor who does his job correctly.
3 understated: If an item of clothing is "understated", it is "discreet", "subtle", or "classic". This isn't the best choice here. Also, because "understated" begins with a vowel sound ("uh"), it cannot be preceded by "a". Rather, we say "an understated (watch)".
3 polished: To "polish" something (shoes, a wooden floor, etc.) is to make it shine. "Polished" means "well-maintained" or "shiny", and it isn't the best answer here.
