Cover Up Move over sunnies, the mask is summer’s newest statement piece.

By Cheyenne Arnold

The hottest trend this summer isn’t eyelet. It’s not a wide brimmed straw hat. It surely isn’t slinky sun dresses for après beach drinks. No, this year’s must-have accessory is the face mask. Once it was clear that masks (and Covid-19) were going to be here for a while, people stepped up their mask game significantly. We’re talking beautiful fabrics and fun colors turned into functional beauties made by some of our favorite brands (sup, Clare V, Mother Denim, etc.) — oh, and a few silly ones, too. It’s decided: being a respectful citizen is the coolest thing you can do this summer — and the coolest thing you can wear is one of these gals.
