In the spirit of turning lemons into lemonade, I’ve decided to scout the coolest umbrellas on the market in the midst of all this rain.
Whether your mission is to ward off defenders, pretend that the sky’s still blue, or to stay pretty and dry, I’m convinced there is an umbrella out there for everyone. Well, mostly. I doubt there’s one that would satisfy Lady Gaga, who would probably ask for one that doesn’t have pants or something. But for the rest of us, there’s hope.
For the eclectic, groovy conceptual design!

And now that I’ve posted this, the sun will probably shine all weekend. Happy almost-Friday!
