After the controversial "duck nails" brought up to date by the singer Lizzo, it is now a more poetic inspiration that seems to vibrate TikTok: the "coquette nails", which draw their source from the Netflix series, The Bridgerton Chronicle. We talk about romance, nineteenth-century aesthetics, and refinement, in the continuity of the "coquettish makeup" trend, a true ode to romanticism.

Honor to romance and girly

Forget flashy or dark colors, the "pretty nails" result in an omnipresence of pastel shades, including pink, or even transparent. The idea is to bet on shades called "girly", but also delicate, right in the spirit of spring. But the inspiration doesn't stop there... It is also about putting the package on romantic-inspired ornaments, from stickers to pearls through sequins, rhinestones, and other nail jewelry (knots, flowers, hearts, stars, lips, etc.). On TikTok, the videos taking up the trend are in the hundreds, and honor manicures all more creative and poetic than the others.

The pink universe imposes itself

In general, girly aesthetics have been a hit for several months. We first saw it with the "Barbiecore", which has established itself as one of the flagship trends of the year 2022, and more recently with the "dollcore", an ode to dolls from Japanese culture, the "rom-com core", which is inspired by the romantic comedies of the 2000s, or the "mermaidcore" which refers to mermaidures.

On social networks, we discover inspirations for clothes, makeup, decorative objects, and accessories tinged with a certain romanticism, seeming straight out of the universe of The Bridgerton Chronicle. The "coquette nails" are no exception, and now take up this aesthetic in the form of playful and creative manicures.
