For the foreseeable future, face masks will be part of our day-to-day wardrobe. If it’s going to be taking up half your face, it may as well be comfortable, cute and on brand!
I already have friends ordering multiple masks to have a print ready to match every outfit, and I may or may not have more than one on the way as well. There’s no reason you can’t look and feel good while protecting yourself and those around you. Step up your mask fashion game with these *non-medical* statement-making looks!
Rep your fave artists
Fabric face masks have been a fan-favourite merch item every festival season. In light of the new demand, many artists are now giving you the chance to shout out your fandom while supporting organizations addressing the impacts of the pandemic. Net proceeds of The Weeknd’s official XO branded masks (pictured) will be donated to the MusiCares COVID-19 relief fund, directly helping those affected in the music community.
You can also support fellow music fans by purchasing a unique design from a fan-owned shop on Redbubble. They have something for everyone — check out these links if you’re a fan of Billie Eilish, Selena Gomez or Khalid. I can’t wait to get my DNCE mask (Joe Jonas’ highly underrated band) made by Jonas Brothers Toronto.
Get the designer look
Craving your Gucci Gucci fix? Match your face mask to your bag with the help of online boutiques like VSOPCAM that rework authentic designer fabrics, including Gucci, Fendi and Chanel, into durable — and highly fashionable — looks. P.S. I have one of their red Chanel scrunchies and I’m obsessed. Stay tuned for a separate blog post on my latest must-have jewelry and accessories!
Keep the summer vibes alive
It looks increasingly unlikely that we’ll be able to travel or enjoy outdoor parties and patios without restrictions this summer. That doesn’t mean we can’t still give off those vibrant summer vibes! Look out for face masks with pastel fabrics, tie dye prints (an easy DIY!) and floral patterns.
I love this set of five Maaji masks from Shopbop that remind me of fun bikini styles. Bonus: An assortment pack is an easy way to ensure you have something for multiple outfits, or have extra to share with friends and family! But better yet, I managed to find the perfect Hawaiian-inspired blue hibiscus mask that perfectly matches my blue hibiscus Wildflower phone case! If I can’t get to Hawaii this year, at least I have this Insta-ready set to show off.
Surprise yourself
One of the best deals online, this five-pack of Old Navy masks will be a thrill to receive in the mail. They’re made from excess fabric from some of Old Navy’s most popular items and no two bundles are exactly alike. Don’t worry if they’re sold out when you first click — Old Navy is constantly releasing more, or you can check out sister company Gap‘s selections. These looks will carry you through every season, occasion and wardrobe change!
