Nara Smith and husband Lucky Blue walked arm-in-arm and flaunted their picture-perfect love while enjoying a lavish shopping spree in New York City.
On Friday, the 23-year-old TikTok influencer looked red carpet ready in an elegant leopard print fur coat over a black cardigan and https://luck8.photos slacks while clutching a designer purse.
She wore her raven locks in a slicked back half-up-half-down style, teaming her look with a dainty gold necklace.
Meanwhile, the 26-year-old male-model looked straight out of a magazine cover in a brown leather jacket and tan sweater teamed with jeans and cowboy boots.
Missing from the lovebirds' Big Apple outing were their children Rumble Honey, four, Slim Easy, two, and Whimsy Lou, eight-months. Lucky also shares daughter Gravity Blue with ex-partner Stormi Bree.
Nara gained popularity via TikTok where she flaunts her 'tradwife' (traditional housewife) lifestyle — a growing trend on social media that showcases women who sport 1950s style clothing while embracing traditional gender roles.

Back in August, the South African star told Harper's Bazaar that she has had 'a really hard time' digesting the concept of the 'the trad wife, whatever it is,' defending her lifestyle.
She told the outlet she is 'a working mom' and that the posts she puts up on social media are 'really not that deep,' regardless what others say.

The IMG Models-signed influencer said she is still learning about herself and can't put a label on what it is she does and the values she is seeking to put on display.
'I never know what to say when people ask me [what I do], because technically, yes, I create content,' said Smith, who has 9.3 million TikTok followers and 4 million Instagram followers. 'But then I'm just living my life and sharing that with people, which a lot of people do.'
Smith's rapid rise to fame — which has fans asking her to take to a reality TV platform — has been buoyed by her clips in which she makes things from scratch, with ASMR qualities for Internet users.
The clips have garnered a measure of controversy at times, according to the profile.
Some commenters are critical of her embracing the cliché of a traditional housewife and nostalgia toward a timeframe when women's rights had not evolved to the point where they are now.
Smith said of her critics, 'For the sake of my mental health, I can't indulge in that. I can't keep correcting people or read things and get frustrated.'

Her husband Lucky — who she wed in February in 2020 — defended her in the publication, saying that her online haters are coming from a place of envy.
'People are seeing her gaining some success from everything she's doing,' Lucky said. 'If you have someone who doesn't know you at all and they're making a video about you online with things that are not true, you can just tell it's coming from a place of jealousy. Let's call it what it is.'
Nara said in the piece that she is expressing the essence of her individuality and hopes that viewers find value in it.
'To me, it's all about just putting what I love out there, and whoever can resonate with that and take something away from it — that's what I want to do,' she said.
'Sometimes my outfits aren't the most practical, but then again fashion isn't always practical. That's what I do. I post videos of me cooking for my kids and my husband. It's really not that deep.'
In the piece, the model described herself as 'a girly girl' and a 'working mom who gets to go about her day in a very different way than' a person with 'a normal nine-to-five job' would.
She added, 'You don't see me getting on a plane, hopping to New York, modeling, coming back — all while I have a newborn — paying bills, filming content, getting my kids dressed.
'Being put into a certain box, just because people think that I'm slaving away, is so weird to me.'
