1.  posh. (adjective) [origin unknown]:  elegant, fashionable.

    ref.  'Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary', 1973.

2.  POSH. (acronym) Port Out Starboard Home.
    The luxury way for English colonialists
    to travel to/from India on liners so that
    their cabin was always on the north (shady)
    side of the boat.

    Now luxurious, or high quality, or slightly snobbish.

    I think high quality will do here.

    ref.  Mathhew West, Fred Chase.

so far so good.
