Linda Farrow Senna Cat Eye-Sunglasses $540 “These frames are a hybrid between a cat eye and gas station style , which in effect doesn’t read too trendy, surprisingly. They’re the ideal everyday pair I sport with my work uniform and are comfortable for my face shape, which is a rare thing.” — Kathy Lee, editor in chief, TZR See On Linda Farrow

APERÇU Alyssa $189 “I'm not that adventurous with sunglasses colors — I like my usual blacks/browns — but this summer I want to break out of this rut with a super fun pink or green pair. This APERÇU one will definitely zhuzh up all my outfits.” — Marina Liao, senior fashion news editor, TZR See On APERÇU

Gentle Monster The Bell YVG1 $340 “I love Gentle Monster styles — and this galaxy-inspired pair feels apropos for a carefree summer. The ombré frames and pale blue mirror lenses are fresh, cool, and lighthearted — exactly the vibes I’m channeling for the months ahead.” — Angela Melero, executive editor, TZR See On Gentle Monster

YSL SL 51 $420 “I can’t even pretend like the Barbie movie doesn't already have a vice grip on my summertime vibe. The oversized pink plastic frames on this pair definitely feel fun, frivolous, and doll-like — it’s an instant Mattel-ification of any outfit.” — Amanda Ross, beauty editor, TZR See On YSL

Lapima Caetano Red Solid $541 “Like so many people in fashion, I’m suddenly obsessed with all things red . On days I’d rather not wear the color head to toe, I’ll pair these cherry-toned shades with camel and black.” — Alison Syrett, deputy fashion editor, TZR See On Lapima

Cult Gaia Terra Sunglasses $228 “The jade detailing on this pair of Cult Gaia shades is unique without trying too hard – the exact vibe I’m striving for with my outfits. The mint frames and rose-colored lenses lend an unexpected twist to the classic rectangle shape.” — Erin Lukas, deputy beauty editor, TZR See On Revolve

Lexxola Lulu D-Frame Acetate Sunglasses $320 “As a self-proclaimed maximalist, I’m constantly dabbling in funky frames. The latest pair on my radar? Lexxola’s Lulu D-Frame Acetate Sunglasses. The pastel pink hue and ‘60s-inspired silhouette are so good. — Kelsey Stewart, associate fashion editor, TZR See On Net-a-Porter

Alexander McQueen Sunglasses $295 “I love the pale blue color of these glasses, mostly because it reminds me of foggy mornings, but also because it gives the oval shape a bit of edge. The frames will be my staple for weekend getaways to the beach and day trips in the city.” — Jessica Fields, beauty writer, TZR See On 24s

Poppy Lissiman Jimbob Flan Swirl $130 “ I want to base my entire summer wardrobe around these Poppy Lissiman sunglasses. They’re giving major ‘effortless chic girl’ vibes and would make any simple outfit look so stylish.” — Maggie Haddad, senior social media strategist, TZR See On Poppy Lissiman
