With Coachella around the corner, festival regulars are busy prepping their wardrobes for the first weekend. Yesterday, Ashley Graham posted an Instagram video of her pre-Coachella fittings, and hours later Gigi Hadid test-wore what is sure to be the It accessory to replace the ubiquitous flower crown. Stepping out to meet her mother, Yolanda, at Japanese restaurant Zuma in New York, Hadid had on scene-stealing tinted sunglasses.

We first saw the trend take shape on Selena Gomez, who has made custom red cat-eye frames from Garrett Leight California Optical x Clare V her signature over the past few months. Colored sunglasses were also big on the Spring 2017 runways, popping up everywhere from Céline to Fendi.

Hadid let her statement frames dictate the rest of her outfit by doubling up on the citrus shade with a matching hoodie. She extended the inspiration behind her wraparound aviators to army green fatigues. Her jacket bore military-influenced details, like utilitarian pockets and epaulettes at each shoulder. Hadid cuffed her trousers to keep the oversize fit from seeming sloppy and managed to show off fur-lined Gucci loafers with rose embroidery—an accent that tied in nicely with her floral iPhone case. All Hadid will need to do is swap the sweatshirt for a crop top before she runs off into the sunset in the California desert.
