I have a prayer veil, which I purchased from EWTN's online religious store.I wear it at these times:
1: When I am able to get to Mass.
2: When I watch the live Mass on EWTN.
3: When I watch Benediction and Devotions, Sunday evenings on EWTN.
4: When I pray the Liturgy of the Hours.
I know that it isn't strictly necessary for me to wear this prayer veil, but I think it is a beautiful custom; it enhances the mitzvah.
(I love that Jewish word, mitzvah, and praying is definitely a mitzvah!)

I am glad you are doing this. When I was growing up, ladies always had their heads covered in church, even when they were cleaning it. Today I always wear a hat or veil to Mass. Hadn't thought of wearing it while praying the Divine Office, though. It seems like a good idea.
