Terre haute 

A city in Indiana known for it's astonomical high meth lab rates, prostitution rings, and horrible horrible smell in the Southern part of the city. It was also nicknamed "Sin city" by Time magazine decades ago. The cities moto is "A Level Above" but sadly the only thing it is above is a pile of elephant feces.

There is a horrible smell in the air, a prostitute on the corner, and a meth lab down the street....I must be in Terre Haute!

haute 

Haute means "high" in French. It is pronounced "hote", NOT "hot". It is used most commonly with the word "Couture" (pronounced catore) which means "fashion" in French. Thus, Haute Couture means High Fashion.

It does not, however, mean hawt, hot, sexy, whatever. People who use haute in place of those words are idiots who seriously need to read the REAL dictionary instead of urbandictionary.com.

That Vivienne Westwood trench is so haute couture.

Haute

...actually DOES have a meaning on its own, and doesn't have to be paired with "couture". It means "fashionably elegant" OR "high class" OR simply "fancy"...

haute
adj.

Fashionably elegant: “In Washington, haute gastronomy is at least as important as the national economy”...

...please get it straight before calling someone else an idiot!

haute couture 

French term refering to the extravagant and often absurd and impractically unrealistic fashion pieces that designers create to demonstrate their unique style and inventiveness.

Proper pronunciation can be tricky; haute is somewhere between ought and oat, pronounced quickly so that the o is highly unrounded ("oh", if held long enough, ends up sounding like a /oo/). couture is pronounced ko'tur with a highly unrounded 'o', a 'u' that sounds almost like a german umlaut, and an 'r' made in a way similar to gargling.

Alternatively, you could pronounce it in a very American fashion as 'ought kuh-ter'.

You can find plenty of haute couture in Parisian shops.
