urbanista

An urbanista is an urban fashionista. An urbanista is (typically) a woman who is interested in fashion, especially high end and non-mainstream fashion and who also has an in-depth knowledge of the best people, places, and things her city has to offer. She knows where to find those stylish Italian boots noone else wears yet, who to call to get the best table at the trendiest restaurant in town and what gallery to contact if your are an up-and-coming artist. An urbanista is selective, but never snobbish, intellectual, but also street smart. She is a living "insider's guide" to the city.
