presumida/coqueta
 
Before 2 women come to blows,:blink::blink:could anyone tell me the translation into English of persumida or coqueta. (meant in a nice way)

"vain" is not the word that we are looking for, and I cant think of any others right now.

Flirty does not convey the meaning either.

Thanx

Or presumida even! I guess there are different interpretations, I tend to think of "confident" (in oneself), "self assured", "poise" which is different to being vain.

You got me once again......:o


I suppose confident is the best word, but knowing this kid, I think "brat" would be more appropriate.
