I came across this word today - and immediately had to look it up. To quote Inigo Montoya ".....I do not think it means what you think it means".
Titivate.

–verb (used with object)
1. to make smart or spruce: She titivated her old dress with a new belt. –verb (used without object)
2. to make oneself smart or spruce.
