Protect your self from the dreaded swine flu with this
Pucci scarf from Neiman Marcus!

 

Since we are officially in a Phase 5 alert level for the swine flu, it is about time that we seriously start thinking about protection. No, I am not talking about that kind of protection, I am speaking of protecting your mouth from this contagious pandemic that is taking the world by storm – much like the Jonas Brothers.

Sure, you can opt for those surgical masks, but what fun is that? It’s dull, comes in a limited amount of colors and – let’s face it - it’s kind of unattractive. Nothing says “I’m scared and powerless against the swine flu!” like a dowdy surgical mask.

Instead, why not use a nice Hermes scarf to cover your mouth. If that’s too flashy, go for something a little more urban like one of those jersey scarves from American Apparel. Personally, I am stocking up on some nice Pucci print scarves to protect myself from the elements. Or you can just go really simple and just tie a bandana around your face.

Neck scarves are really hot right now – especially those bandit scarves with fringe. They look quite fancy hanging around anyone’s neck. So why not make them serve some sort of function? Simply wrap them around the facial orifice and viola! You are in charge of your swine flu fate and protected with impeccable style!

...and P.S. - Don't forget to wash your hands. I don't think I should be reminding you to do that.
