“Tai Tai!”
She hears it as she steps out of her chauffeur-driven car in front of a discreet but very expensive boutique in Bangsar.
She pauses, turns around slowly—Chanel sunglasses perfectly in place—and answers with a knowing smile.
“Yes?”
You don’t become a Tai Tai overnight.
It happens one spa booking, one couture handbag, one weekday high tea at a time.
If this sounds like you, you’re not imagining things.
Your friends have definitely been whispering behind their Dior clutches—so read on.

Tai Tai Daily Agenda
Reads Like a Wellness Retreat
Pilates at 9, facial at 11, lunch at 1, massage at 3.
If your weekday looks like most people’s birthday treat, welcome.
You don’t do stress—you detox it.
Preferably at a luxury spa in Damansara or a sound healing in Bali.
Gym Bag Screams Designer
Not Discount And Cost More Than Your Month’s Rent
Fitness is sacred.
Not for weight loss, darling—but to keep that tailored silhouette sharp.
You’ve got a personal trainer at your private club.
Plus a standing reformer Pilates class.
And everyone smells faintly of Le Labo.
Glow-Ups Put Skincare Ads to Shame
Zero pigmentation.
No visible pores.
And a glow that says, “I drink eight glasses of water and mind my business.”
You know the difference between La Mer and Sisley.
Your aesthetician is on speed dial.
She sends you birthday gifts.
A True Tai Tai Glides
Never Just Walks—Especially In Heels
From Jimmy Choo to Louboutin, your shoes are a mood.
You don’t do practical unless it’s luxury practical—like Ferragamo loafers for travel or Oran sandals on “off” days.
Even your house slippers are silk-lined.
Lunch Is a Social Event
Where Gossip Is an Olympic Sport
You know who’s divorcing who before the lawyer does.
High tea at Sabayon or Lady Yi’s Lounge isn’t just for nibbling on scones.
It’s where alliances are formed and secrets are softly spilled between bites of truffle mushroom quiche.
Editorial Style
You wear outfits that stop traffic in Bukit Bintang.
Every handbag matches the occasion.
People ask who your stylist is. (It’s you.)
You don’t follow trends; you whisper them into existence.
And yes, that was you in Tatler last month.
Accessories Are Curated
Like a Treasure Trove
Oversized sunglasses, yes.
A diamond tennis bracelet, obviously.
Your bag collection spans Chanel, LV, and a few limited-edition Birkins that rarely see the light of day.
Your jewellery is subtle but makes people squint.
Travel Isn’t a Luxury
Luxe is the Default
Your passport is so full it needs therapy.
Paris for couture, Tokyo for facials, Bali for “nature.”
You know the best rooms at every five-star resort in Asia.
Airport lounges feel like second homes.
Handbag Collection
Deserves Its Own Instagram
There’s a Chanel for brunch, a Fendi for play, and a Miu Miu when you’re feeling cheeky.
Your bags have storage cases, name tags, and a rotation schedule.
When you walk into a room, people notice the bag before they notice your dress.
Oh well!
Upgrading Phones
It’s not just about having the latest iPhone.
It’s about having two.
One for photos and socials, the other for shopping.
And WhatsApp groups.
You Might Be a …
You read this list while sitting in a plush velvet chair, sipping iced matcha, phone in one hand, and scrolling for your next getaway on the other.
Tai Tai isn’t a label—it’s a lifestyle.
And darling, it looks good on you.
So go ahead, book that spa day.
Call your girls for brunch.
Wear those heels even if you’re just heading to Pavilion.
You’re living the dream—and doing it so well.
Wow, I love your blog!
