images.jpg Dear ladies… we all know, under that demur exterior in the standard issue black suit and editorial glasses exists a “Tai-Tai” who is just waiting to break out. Here are some tips for you to unleash that inner “tigress” who is expected to be treated like a “goddess” that she is, who won’t take no for an answer, and who will walk her pointy boots all over those “unfortunate souls who dare to oppose her will.”

5) Buy a designer bag for all your essentials and more. Bigger the better, because, girlfriends, size does matter.

4) Put on Chanel or Sisley makeup, because we all just feel better when we look better

3) Switch out the skirt for your little black suit with one with an above the knee funky cut because we know that we can be powerful and be sexy at the same time

2) 3 hour head to toe, massage therapy/spa treatment because there’s nothing more satisfying than telling someone to press “harder”

1) Buy an a pair of killer heels preferably 3 inches or higher and has a “Blahnik” or “Louboutin” inscribed in the inner soles. Because ladies, we speak with force when we can look them in the eye or, preferably, down on them.

Here are mine. So what are some of yours?

Hey, whatever happens to treating your man nicely? Haha, well, that’s coming from a guy.

I don’t know if we all have an inner tai-tai! I’ve never wanted any of the stuff you’ve wanted- ok, maybe the part where you don’t have to worry about how much you’re spending when you go shopping- or maybe that you do have a lot of free time to spend with family, or, maybe …. ok, ok, we all want to be some form of tai-tai in one way or another.
