What does coqueta mean and is it considered a compliment in Costa Rica?

Travel Tips
Being that I live in Costa Rica I can tell you that there is three posible uses for this:

Coqueteo is flirt

Coqueta (when refering to a woman) or coqueto (when refering to a man) can mean that they are conscious about their appearance or slightly vain. This is a costarrican slang.

Coqueta (when refering to furniture, costarrican slang) can be a vanity or make-up stand.

It could be a compliment if used to refer to a persons image, for example "que coqueta te ves con esa ropa!", this means roughly "you look so good with those clothes"

You can email me if you need more sentences or help translating in costarrican slang.

It means you're a flirt.

Same as in english, it can be a sexy thing, a good thing.

But it can also be negative in the sense that you like to flirt with dudes and leave them hanging afterwards, which bothers some people...
