At this point, Beyoncé is basically Queen of all things. She's Queen Bey, Queen of Pop, fashion and feminism royalty and we ought to all bow down in any and all contexts.

In the last 24-hours though, she's nabbed another accolade, declaring her position as Queen of 'thirst trap' social media posting, with this incredible series of pictures of herself in a black mini skirt, lace shirt combo.

The 37-year old singing legend is wearing head-to-toe Saint Laurent by Anthony Vaccarello. Specifically: the Western embroudered blouse in baroque lace, a large corset belt with folk buckle, black suede studded scarf and the 'Lily New Wave SL213' sunglasses in black.

'Thirst trapping', for the unfamiliar, is the art of posting a nonchalant, but deeply seductive image of yourself, often without signposting it as anything sexual, but with the designed effect of luring in your admirers to have a closer look.

And Beyoncé, consider us all lured, job well done.

Queen Bey has been on something of an Instagram crusade of late, posting a series of excellent slide shows showing her in a variety of incredible outfits - pictures that were presumably snapped by Insta-husband Jay Z.
