Llevar, to wear et al.

Would it be correct to interpret "llevar muy en alto" as "to wear proudly"? Would "to display proudly" also be correct when speaking of things such as reputations, family names, marks of honor, scars, etc.? "muy en alto" seems to indicate "very on high" or right out in the open; "proudly" but what do I know? 
muchas gracias!

Not quite applicable to something like a reputation or the scars from battle, but parallel, I guess - Lector_Constante, Feb 9, 2012
