This slip dress from Free People is ultra femme. This dress would be perfect for a lot of different events like date night, going out to dinner with friends, wedding reception, baby shower and more. It comes in a few different colors and prints so you can pick one that fits your personal style the best.

Mesh is another great fabric to consider with coquette fashion. This long sleeve white mesh top with small bows is perfect for anyone who wants just a small hint of coquette vibes with their outfit.

This top can be styled with denim jeans or faux leather or leather pants for an edgier look. Depending on how you style it you can definitely wear this to more casual events like concerts or going out to dinner.

You can’t go wrong with lace when it comes to flirty outfits. This black lace top from Majorelle has a stunning neckline and the white bow detailing gives this top a more flirty fun vibe. This top would look great with black jeans, skirt or faux leather / leather pants.

The bows really do make a difference with this top. Without them this top would give off dark feminine vibes rather than coquette.

Coquette Accessories

When it comes to coquette accessories think ruffles, lace, and bows. If it has any of those details then you most likely will be able to incorporate them into the coquette core aesthetic.

I personally have been obsessed with bows in my hair lately. It is such a small accessory but I think it makes all the difference.

Coquette Shoes

As far as shoes go flats, sandals, sling back heels, and kitten heels will look best with this flirty style. Unless you are going for a grungier edgier look I’d stay away from chunky boots or boots in general with this style.

Dark Coquette Aesthetic Edit

Black Coquette Dresses

If you are drawn towards the darker alternative side of fashion then consider the dark coquette aesthetic. This style is the one I would personally go for. I think it’s a lot easier to style and the clothing can be easily reworn without it being super obvious. It is dark, mysterious and incredibly chic. Again, think bows, lace, mesh and ruffles.

Stick to darker colors like black, dark reds, dark purples and deep blues. The dresses listed above are perfect for this darker style and are great for evening events and date nights.

Dark Coquette Shoes And Accessories

For accessories stick with darker colors. Lace, bows, faux leather or leather items will work great with this stye. I’m personally obsessed with lace gloves listed above. They are stunning and would look incredible with some of the dresses listed above.

For shoes stick with black kitten heels, flats, or black knee-high or thigh-high boots. Black Mary Jane shoes and oxford shoes will work well with the dresses listed above as well.
