Forget the Little Black Dress. It’s All About Little Black Sunnies

A little black dress (or LBD for short) is a staple in any wardrobe. But a new dark-hued accessory is gaining attention lately: little black sunnies. This eyewear is both New York City girl chic and cool LA glam, making it popular among fashionistas, celebrities and models.

“With Y2K dominating summer trends, it is no surprise that tiny sunglasses—a la the Matrix— have come back with a vengeance,” says Ashley Castorena, a popular stylist on Instagram known for helping clients build an intentional wardrobe.

So, how do you rock a pair? “Tiny sunglasses can be a great addition to that city-girl look because they contrast well with oversized blazers and trousers,” says Castorena. “I’d advise finding a pair that will flatter your face shape. This will help with the overall size of the glasses to look more natural.”
