Julia Stakhiva is a so-called Rich Kid of Instagram. Born in the Ukraine to a mega-wealthy family, Stakhiva, 23, currently lives in London and has only ever known a life of extreme indulgence.
While she is about to complete a university degree in fashion design, she’s never had to work a day in her life, her lavish lifestyle funded by her parents various businesses, the most successful of which is a food production company.
Does that mean she’s spoiled, if we agree that the definition of “spoiled” is, “to harm the character of (a child) by being too lenient or indulgent”? I’d say so (yes, I’m looking at you Julia’s parents) but she’s a 23-year-old grown up capable of making her own choices.
Her current life is her decision, and what a life it is.
Julia Stakhiva spends around $370,000 on clothes each year and the total value of her wardrobe has been estimated at $1.8 million.
She spends $55,000 each year on cosmetic procedures that include lip injections, facial fillers, cheek reduction surgery, semi-permanent makeup, teeth whitening, lash extensions and scalp injections to make her hair shiny. A $37,000 boob has also been planned.

To really get to know her though, you need to go beyond her Instagram feed and run through the "greatest hits" of her comments courtesy of the UK's Daily Mail.
"Anyone can be rich but not everyone can be beautiful."
"I believe everyone should start cosmetic surgery at a young age. It's better to save up your money for beauty treatments instead of spending it on food."
"Some people are not brave enough to have surgery. They think it's better to sit at home, eat pizza and judge me. But I just think well, you eat pizza and I look pretty."
"When I'm out, I order Dom Perignon or Cristal. I hired an assistant to keep an eye on me at all times and ensure I don't get too drunk when I'm out."
"I love all my haters. I would rather die than have people not talk about me. People criticizing me shows that I'm an extraordinary person."
"There are no good beauticians or hairdressers in London. So it's much easier to take a plane to Moscow every few months to get all my treatments. I have to book out the whole salon in Moscow for the day so it can be free for me anytime I arrive."
I WISH she was taking the piss.
Stakhiva is starring in a new TV series called The Majors set to air later this year. Article continues after this video.
