I can’t believe how long the mustache infatuation wave has been crashing down on us. I love this latest find: an American Apparel mustache mask. It is brilliant. You can even flash a 'stache in a snow blizzard with this balaclava.
How sad that winter is nearly over. If I had owned one of these (which apparently comes in two versions, The Major Tache and the Mini Tache, as pictured) then I would have never wished for summer to come.
The American Apparel Mustache Masks are made in Downtown LA and are sold for the price of £15 and they do shipping for only £4. More details here.
