Few items have the capacity to bestow instant suave to our spring and summer ensembles, and the very best accessory to elevate our hot-weather get-up? The perfect pair of sunglasses. Perched atop our nose bridge, they transform our outfits. A romantic sundress is given a sense of mystery when our eyes are hidden behind a black acetate cat-eye, and the oh-so-simple uniform of a white T-shirt and a pair of jeans goes through an almost magical metamorphosis when a pair of oversized '70s shades slick back our hair (we're looking at you Jane Birkin).
Below, our editors shares the sunglasses that are on their shopping list for the upcoming spring season :

“When Linda Farrow and Cos announced their collaboration, I rightfully gasped out loud in the office. I have been enamoured with Farrow's nostalgic rounded designs since crystal artist Sara Shakeel bedazzled a pair for Billie Eilish in 2021. What is not to love about a pair of her throw-back shades bestowed with Scandinavian cool, courtesy of Cos?”
