As a kid growing up in the northeast, I suffered through many-a-Halloween where my costume’s fabulousness was dulled by having to wear a coat. A practical person would have incorporated warm clothing into their get-up of choice, but Madonna without lace is no Madonna at all, am I right?

Of course Halloween festivities are looking quite a bit different this year. Regardless of changed plans, donning a costume and participating in safe, socially distanced alternatives is likely still in the cards for many families around the country. And the most universal change this year? Wearing a mask no matter what costume they painstakingly decide on.

Instead of letting it cramp their style, we’ve found the perfect way to make it part of their look. The awesome folks at Cubcoats have created a line of masks and hoodies that put the fun in functional. Their clever designs result in simple and adorable costumes they’ll wear long after Halloween.

Check out our favorite face masks that can be turned into costumes:
