Default Can I cover my head all of the time?

I am a Catholic. Would it be morally acceptable for me to cover my head all of the time, not just while at Mass? Thanks!

Sure. The only caution would be to understand that this is a personal devotion of your own and not binding in conscience upon anyone else. In other words, keep in mind that many orthodox Catholic women do not only not cover their heads all the time but also do not do so at Mass.
