Tawdry Audrey
Tawdry was originally short for (Sain)t Audrey lace, which was a kind of neck lace bought at St. Audrey’s Fair in Ely, England named after St. Audrey, Northumbrian queen and patron saint of Ely, who, according to tradition, died of a throat tumor which she considered just punishment of her youthful liking for neck laces.
