Clever sting (5)

I believe the answer is:

smart

I believe this is a double definition.

'clever' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'sting' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for smart that I've seen before include "Chic; sting" , "Rankle; trim" , "Clean and stylish" , "astute" , "Bright or dapper" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Telegraph.
