What does "keeping it classy" mean?
I don't understand this idiom. I read different meanings of "keeping it classy" on the urbandictionary.com and on the other web-sites. I met those descriptions:
1) the act of showing class; being well behaved.
2) It is sarcasm. It usually involves some one commenting on some one elses action, or something they have said. Usually the action or saying is socially or morally questionable or totally not acceptable, or just downright vulgar. Saying "keeping it classy" means the individual the comment is directed at is totally lacking in class.
I often meet the first meaning of this idiom. Can you give examples with the second meaning?
