Alongside vaccinations, booster jabs and "happy birthday"-synced hygiene, the guidance suggests that reusable face masks are our best bet at providing extra protection against spreading the virus.Īnd as our ventures out transitioned from state-sanctioned supermarket shop to wining and dining, we soon came to appreciate the humble cloth face mask as more than just a means of protection. Once the initial demand for medical masks and surgical masks for key workers was met, retailers the world over began selling different variations of the new, essential accessory – everything from disposable face masks to 3-ply cotton with adjustable ear loops and nose bridges. Yes, after the so-billed "Freedom Day" of mid-July, face coverings are less ‘recommended’ and more mandatory when it comes to travelling by public transport, shopping and practically any other crowded situation you may find yourself in.įirst introduced at the outset of the global Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, face masks fast joined keys, wallets and mobile phones in the “don't leave the house without” checklist.
As per the latest government guidelines, antibacterial, antimicrobial cotton face masks should very much be the norm in the face of the quick-spreading Omicron Covid strain. One minute they're in, one minute they're out. This sparkling snood from Reiss is perfect for the run-up to the party season and can be worn for day time chic or night time cover-up.It's been a rollercoaster year for face masks. Reiss sequinned snood (£69) from Reiss: If it has sequins then it is likely we will approve. Topshop Fairisle snood (£22) from Topshop: Rarely ones to disappoint, the lovely Toppers are offering this cute, printed snood which bares an uncanny resemblance to the Burberry Argyle print wool-blend snood (£150). A subtly sophisticated addition to 2009 layering. Missoni have added flecks of gold to this sumptuous coral piece, transforming any day-to-day winter wardrobe from practical to luxurious. Missoni Rib lurex snood (£145) from Browns At just £35 it’s difficult to argue with this versatile, chunky knit. One of the more expensive snoods available, this one is also available in highlighter yellow! Team with the Michael Kors sweater dress in either colour for an alternative take on this electric wintery number.įrench Connection chunky snood (£35) from French Connection
This neon bright embraces the 80s in more ways than one. Michael Kors Cashmere rib-knit snood (£740) from Net-a-Porter Wear as a scarf, or protect your hair by raising the fabric over the back of your head like a hood – either way, the snood will make sure you’re bang on trend and will definitely keep that winter chill out! Having been seen on the fall catwalks at Burberry (rabbit fur) and Missoni (cosy knits), the snood is now making a massive comeback, keeping that 80’s look fresh for a more luxurious 2009.
No this isn’t Snood, the addictive puzzle game, but a snood: the scarf-come-hood that goes on over the head and around the neck like a scarf that won’t flap away in the wind. We love a winter trend that helps to keep out the bitter cold at the same time as looking uber stylish, which is why we will be investing in at least one snood this season.
