Boujee

Boujee (also spelled Bougie), a colloquial shortening of the term "bourgeoisie", is a term that was originally used to describe the middle class in medieval society, but now describes the upper class in capitalist society. The term is used with both positive and negative connotations, as becoming part of the bourgeoisie can be a goal for many, yet offensive to the many others that are opposed to the bourgeoisie. The bourgeoisie are also called capitalists, due to them being the ruling class of capitalist society and owning capital (money, machinery, and other resources used to create more wealth). Hence, this aesthetic is most often associated with celebrities and wealthy business owners and their heirs. 
Boujee people are concerned with wealth, status, and all thing luxury. They'll often show off, or "flex", their wealth on social media to gain notoriety and followers, or "clout". Often these flexes will include expensive spa trips, high-end self care and cosmetics, buying expensive foreign vehicles or mansions, trips to luxury resorts and beaches, and more activities of this sort. On the other hand, boujee people can also be portrayed as living isolated in luxury while ignorant to the struggles of the rest of society.
Boujee people typically radiate confidence and esteem, and can be very charitable. However, they can easily turn to narcissism and entitlement. In any case, hedonism and living life on their terms are some of the main values of boujee life. This is very similar to Baddie, but more refined.
