A GROUP of wealthy young women from China are brazenly flaunting their luxury lifestyles on social media.

Even though the women have been warned by the Chinese government to stop splashing their wealth on Instagram, they just can’t resist putting on a show, The Sun reports

The affluent socialites tend to be daughters of Chinese billionaires, enjoying the finer things in life and jetsetting around the world.

The Chinese president is attempting to crack down on the rich, but it’s too difficult to control social media.

In attempt to reign in the young ‘fuerdai’, which loosely translates as the rich second generation, President Xi Jinping has been taking some drastic measures.

His strict policies include censoring the wealthy teens from reality TV shows, but he’s unable to crack down on social media in the same way.

Despite President Xi Jinping’s efforts, the well-off young women continue to upload enviable snaps of designer clothing labels, flashy cars and expensive champagne.
