Ultimate Guide for the Black Coquette

Spring/Summer Trends

First day of Spring was yesterday I'm sure and I've been compiling a list of what I see on tumblr that predict will be Spring and Summer coquette trends! Being extremely well groomed has made a huge comeback. Nails are well manicured. Sleeker Hair

Makeup

Minimalism is more or less out. Girls are taking inspo from every era. Classic Hollywood. Grunge Rock Queens. 00s Video Vixens.  Even the soft pastel girls look ethereal and otherworldly. But there will always be girls who prefer less makeup as it makes them feel more comfortable so if you like that stick with it!
