• a front connector component affixed to facing vertically-extending edges of the two separable front sections of the central body and arranged to attach the vertically-extending edges of the two sections to each other and close the opening when connected, and to enable separation of the edges of the two sections from each other when disconnected;
• an interior lining affixed to the base and central body, said interior lining including an interior lining main body and an interior lining cover joined to the interior lining by an interior lining connector extending around a portion of an outer perimeter of the interior lining cover, wherein when said portion of the outer perimeter of the interior lining cover is disconnected from the interior lining main body, an interior lining opening is formed;

• and
• a base connector extending around a perimeter of the base and having first and second base connector components, wherein:
• when in an unfurled state with the front connector component closing the front opening, the central body and base form an article that encapsulates at least a user's torso and legs while the user's head extends through the head opening and the user's arms extend either through arm openings or an enlarged version of the head opening, and
• when in an adjusted state, the central body folds into the base through said interior lining opening, the portion of the outer perimeter of the interior lining cover is joined to a corresponding portion of an inner perimeter of the interior lining main body by the interior lining connector to enclose the central body that has been folded into the base, and the base is further foldable along a fold line that bisects the base such that the two components of the base connector face each other and are connected by the base connector to form said personal accessory.
