Cardi B has come a long way. The "Up" rapper completely catapulted herself into being one of the biggest stars in the entertainment world, and now she is living the luxurious life. Cardi has so much to celebrate, and from the looks of it, she does so often. Her career is booming, she became a mom in July 2018 and again in September 2021, and her relationship with her husband, Offset, looks like it's better than ever.
Not only that, but Cardi now has plenty of money to live the life of her dreams, and it shows. From purchasing luxury cars (that she can't even drive!) to new homes, jewelry, and designer outfits, Cardi has the world at her feet.

Offset, who is a member of the hip-hop group Migos, proposed in October 2017, even though they were already legally married, and he gave her a pear-shaped 8-carat diamond ring he said cost $500,000. Must be nice.
Offset surprised her with a 'just because' gift.
That's so romantic and all, but is a Lamborghini truck really necessary?! The kicker here is that the "I Like It" rapper doesn't even drive. But who needs to know how when you have a driver at all times, right?
Cardi bought herself a brand-new $240K bright orange Bentley.
Cardi purchased the car for herself after the massive success of "Bodak Yellow" in 2017. Cardi revealed that she had to pay for it in full since being a native New Yorker, she doesn't have a driver's license and couldn't finance it.
Cardi had the most over-the-top baby shower.
Cardi's baby shower, which was held in July 2018, was so beautiful. The Bronx-themed decor was fit for a queen, and honestly, we didn't expect anything less from her.
Want to sit front row at a Tom Ford fashion show? No problem.

Cardi flies private now.
The days of flying commercial are long past for Cardi. Not only does she fly on private planes, but she can pose for a photo shoot in her underwear on them too. When you're Cardi B, you do whatever you please!
She was showered with the most unique and intricate flower arrangements when she gave birth.

Cardi is constantly showered with luxurious gifts.
The creator of the Waist Gang Society waist trainers, Premadonna, sent Cardi's baby a gorgeous white crib fit for royalty. How beautiful is it? Can you even imagine someone sending such an elaborate gift for your baby?
She's even thinking of changing the car's color now.
"Imma have to wrap my car because it looks like a boy and this car is a girl ," she captioned this pic of the same blue Lambo Offset got her. Cardi is hilarious; we wonder what color she chose to change it to or if she ended up just getting a new car altogether.
She totally rocked Paris Fashion Week in September 2018.

Cardi bought herself a diamond-encrusted $400K Lola Bunny chain.
Look at how it shines! She has a special love for jewelry and keeps herself and her loved ones decked out in diamonds like a true hip-hop star. Her level of bling is unreal; sometimes we can't figure out how she even manages the weight of her jewels.
She has her very own designer lipstick.
Why go to the drug store for makeup when you have your own Tom Ford lipstick in your purse? Tom Ford created this deep blue shade of lipstick that was inspired by Cardi. It sold for about $40 a tube and sold out in just a couple of days.
This orange Mercedes-Benz truck isn't so bad either.
She is already building quite a car collection! Cardi posed for a photo on top of this gorgeous Mercedes Benz truck back in August 2018. Bet it was fun to take a joy ride in, even though she can't drive it!

That pair casually dropped thousands of dollars at a strip club in October 2018. In a video she shared on social media, the floor is completely covered in dollar bills. They just can't help themselves!
