Crossword Genius

Listen out for adornment (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tinsel

'adornment' is the definition.
(I know that tinsel is a decoration)

'listen out' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates anagramming the letters (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'listen' is an anagram of 'TINSEL'.

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for tinsel that I've seen before include "Cheap and gaudy metallic material" , "Showy decoration" , "Shiny stuff of silent kind" , "Sparkly strands" , "Shiny decoration" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
