I looked like crap and so everyone else around my time period. This is definitely the time fashion wise to get pregnant. I love your preggo style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-russian-spy-is-this-uwp-or-not#post-813139 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 20:50:25 +0000 Day Vies 813139@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it. Aside from the pregnancy you look like you could lift top secret documents off of a hunky unsuspecting arch-enemy spy. Not sure what constitutes UP but I love it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-russian-spy-is-this-uwp-or-not#post-813092 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 19:58:22 +0000 cciele 813092@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You nailed it! Definitely U and P, and feel you are a bit too polished and subtle for W. I do like the Urban Luxe Princess. Or maybe Urban Stealth Princess. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-russian-spy-is-this-uwp-or-not#post-813074 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 19:34:23 +0000 Transcona Shannon 813074@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Are we even sure she's pregnant? I mean Natalie could be in disguise here???</p> <p>Stunning &amp; gorgeous outfit BTW! Rock on Natalia (I don't think Natalie is your real name - in Russian, it's Natalia). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-russian-spy-is-this-uwp-or-not#post-813059 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 19:19:26 +0000 rachylou 813059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ohmigosh, you are spot on! Russian spy! </p> <p>But Russian Spy On The Catwalk! That is so wrong and so hilarious!</p> <p>Anyways, I can see where you have thoughts of UWP, where it's a shadow style for you. You are very polished though, very civilized. It's interesting. I think you are more *Of the Last Opulent Days Before The Fall Of Civilization.* A few zombie sightings, the peasants are restless, but the palace gates are as yet still on their hinges...</p> <p>...Gritty, lawless, but not totally abandoned. Oh! You know what comes to mind, my very favorite character of all time - Catherine Zeta Jones in *Traffic.* Where she's six months pregnant, learns her husband is a drug cartel lord when he's busted, and she takes over the business. She stares down thugs and orders hits and sells dolls made of cocaine while, like, popping her B vitamins. She's hilarious like Spy on the Catwalk. Wrong, but hilarious!</p> <p>Btw, I really love the idea of characters for a day and playing dress up. That's inspiring! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-russian-spy-is-this-uwp-or-not#post-813057 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 19:16:38 +0000 Jules 813057@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YLF, as always!<br /> Personally, while I don't claim to have any kind of handle on UWP, patent leather always reads a little dressy to me. Even with boots like these, there's still an glancing impression made by the patent, something I notice before the edgier details. Also, I love your arm candy but I think of UWP as a little more minimal.<br /> I like Urban Luxe Princess! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-russian-spy-is-this-uwp-or-not#post-813029 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 18:57:47 +0000 cobaltblue 813029@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, I like Urban Luxe Princess. That might not quite cover the spikes, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-russian-spy-is-this-uwp-or-not#post-813026 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 18:55:08 +0000 JulieJohn 813026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really great outfit, I'm so glad the UWP descriptor gave birth to this beauty. I think a spy is a kind of warrior, so you are good to go. Your wits are your weapon, not to mention the baby may have special powers, like a psychic mind probe. Very nice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-russian-spy-is-this-uwp-or-not#post-813023 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 18:52:51 +0000 MsMary 813023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Natalie, you are so cool! Who else could dress up as a sexy Russian spy in her third trimester, and TOTALLY pull it off? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-russian-spy-is-this-uwp-or-not#post-813022 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 18:52:39 +0000 rae 813022@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Princess Anastasia goes covert ops! Love it. Definitely UWP to me. May have to pin you spy when I get home. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-russian-spy-is-this-uwp-or-not#post-813020 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 18:51:15 +0000 Anonymous 813020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I agree too -- your looks all are polished and not RATE at all. Definitely a successful ruler who is enjoying her riches. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-russian-spy-is-this-uwp-or-not#post-813018 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 18:48:16 +0000 catgirl 813018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, I love the spy twist! I think the fur collar also gives a slight huntress look. </p> <p>What I see when I look at ALL your outfits is "polished". Whatever you wear, it looks luxe and elegant - fur and shiny patent in a deep rich color and feminine touches. It's admirable and I think you should (and have) embraced it. And I don't know that UWP must be RATE, either, though the W part seems like it should. So maybe you are Urban Luxe Princess? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-russian-spy-is-this-uwp-or-not#post-813006 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 18:37:27 +0000 Emily 813006@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Russian Spy - love it. I think it's great how you gave the clasically feminine cardigan some edge with the pants, boots, and accessories - especially those earrings - too cool. I'd say you are rocking this look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-russian-spy-is-this-uwp-or-not#post-813003 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 18:32:26 +0000 Thistle 813003@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your outfit! Russian Spy for sure!</p> <p>Those boots with that sweater, wow, just amazing!</p> <p>An you are right, no one would expect a pergnant spy. I also remember reading somehwere that the CIA was recruiting more female operatives. Women are apparantly better than men at listening and not being noticed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-russian-spy-is-this-uwp-or-not#post-812977 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 18:12:04 +0000 goldenpig 812977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>After yesterday's UWP discussion, I wanted to come up with an outfit that felt very UWP to me and see if I could really pull it off. So last night I was scrambling in my closet trying to find clothes that felt UWP but still fit (there's not a whole lot left!) Here is what I came up with. I saw that some of the pics on the pinterest board that Una linked to had fur collars, so I picked my burgundy cardigan with fur collar. And used my burgundy zip boots to match. With some skinny black pants (less feminine than a skirt, so maybe a little more tough chick). Then the accessories--the most UWP ones I have: snake earrings, spiky bracelet, and black studded satchel.</p> <p>So in my mind, this is the best UWP look I can achieve right now. And yet I'm still not convinced it's UWP. What do you think--UWP or not? And if not, how would you describe this style? I'd love to hear your analysis of this outfit!</p> <p>In my mind, I feel like a Russian spy. I know my descriptors are always more fanciful than the outfits themselves, but that's part of the fun of playing dress-up! I love creating little characters for the day. And being pregnant is the perfect decoy--nobody expects a pregnant woman to be a spy!</p> <p>And lo and behold, I looked up "Russian spy fashion" and found an actual Russian spy who was deported and now is a minor celebrity, and she walked the catwalk in her spy fashion! Outfit is kinda similar to mine! Not too far off, wouldn't you say?<br /> <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/06/13/anna-chapman-catwalk-turkey-fashion-show_n_1592532.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.huffingtonpost.com/.....92532.html</a> </p>
