The Mirrored SunglassesI love a mirrored lens because it hides all sins. Let’s face it: We’re either up too early or out too late. One of my new favorite brands this season is New York-based Illesteva. This unique pink reflective lens and tortoise print combo adds a youthful vibrancy to even the most dog-tired, caffeine-deprived complexion.Illesteva Leonard Olive With Pink Mirrored Lenses, $177
The Pastel NecklaceMint, lilac, buttercup and cotton candy were spotted on practically every New York Fashion Week runway. A great way to try this trend without looking like an Easter egg is with accessories like this mint choker. Insider style tip: Wear this necklace with a monochromatic white dress to really make it stand out.Juliet & Company Serenite Necklace, $66
