Fashion goes along with the times, even amid the prevailing global pandemic, it makes no exceptions. As Covid-related restrictions start to get lifted, many people will soon get back out on the streets strutting their best outfits. Still, health and safety should remain a priority, and this is why we’ve found some of the most trending Covid-19-inspired fashion accessories that will elevate your outfit while keeping you protected.
Designer Face Masks
Designers have started getting creative with face masks, giving us the option to add some personality to our face wear in a time of mandatory face masks. Roopa Pemmaraju created a line of garden-themed face masks that are hand-embroidered with 100% silk georgette; while Michael Ngo offers a collection of bedazzled masks in bold designs that screams fierce, without having words having to leave your lips at all.
Graphic Mask Cases
With stylish masks comes just-as-stylish cases to store them in. This handy Yaumati face mask wallet from GOD features its namesake district on its outer layer which folds into a miniature pouch that fashions a mesh pocket on its side to hold your hand sanitizer in.
Sleek Designer Gloves
It’s almost impossible not to get in contact with open surfaces when we’re out of the house. Surfaces like handrails, countertops, elevator buttons can hold viruses for up to 72 hours, but research suggests that it isn’t as easy for viruses to remain on the fabric. That’s good news for fashionistas who don’t want to get on the bandwagon of wearing surgical gloves. A sleek pair like the Hermes lambskin with silk lining Soya Gloves or the Gucci Mmacrame Lace Gloves could add some confidence to your already put together look.
Push-Stick Keychain
A noteworthy accessory is the Qualy Push Stick keychain from Homeless is a convenient accessory to carry around with you every day to push elevator and ATM buttons on the days you don’t feel the need for a fashionable pair of gloves.
Wearable Air Purifier Necklaces
There are times throughout the day when you can’t help but take our mask off, like when you have meals or when you’re working at your office desk. In these moments of vulnerability, wearable protection that doesn’t involve covering your face is having a portable air purifier like the Taiwanese Airvida M1 that clears 99.9% of bacteria from your surrounding. Another impressive model is the German Pool personal air purifier which is small enough to fit in your pocket or even wear around your neck as it cleans the air around you almost instantly.
