Record man among stylish outsiders in lounge (9)
I believe the answer is:
chronicle
'record' is the definition.
(chronicling is a kind of recording)
'man among stylish outsiders in lounge' is the wordplay.
'man' becomes 'ron' (I've seen this before**).
'among' indicates putting letters inside.
'stylish' becomes 'chic' ('chic' can be similar in meaning to 'stylish').
'outsiders in' suggests removing the centre.
'lounge' with its middle taken out is 'le'.
'ron' put within 'chic' is 'chronic'.
'chronic'+'le'='CHRONICLE'
(Other definitions for chronicle that I've seen before include "Account of important events" , "History" , "Continuous record of events in order of time" , "Historical account" , "Narrative description of past events" .)
