They say a smile is your best accessory. Well… not anymore.

In this new normal, it looks like face masks are here to stay. And we all know the struggle of spending ages picking out an outfit and perfecting our make-up, only to have it all covered up with that hospital-blue disposable surgical mask that clashes with our clothes.

Masks take up serious space on our faces, so it’s about time we tried adding more personality onto our masks.

Here are eight stores selling fashionable face masks to help spice up your look. (And psst, they’re all local too!)
