Bit stuck on this one - help!
35d: Uniform that's donned without ties is taboo (3,2,6)
Looks like out of bounds, but cannot parse. Possibly got some letters wrong.

Can anyone help with 47a?
Vagrant originally staying in digs.
I am supposing that the answer is "rootless" but can't parse it.

"rootles" is a dialect word for "digs"
e.g. the pigs were rootling around
