Lust of the Week: Unikko umbrella



What with all the rain we've been having in Vancouver, a stylish umbrella is a tempting buy. I do enjoy the fact that this umbrella has a button release to open and close it. There was something more satisfying in user experience with an automatic umbrella, than a traditional manual one. This cheerful floral umbrella is fun, yet not overly punchy with its more grownup color scheme of white, black and brown. Any way to perk up a grey rainy day is a plus in my books!

so cute! but not diggin the $40 price tag. my umbrella is orange and pink and it definitely brightens up the dreary weather

oh cute...but knowing my track record..within a week I'll lose it on the bus/canada line/taxi etc. Actually just purchased a sturdy size-of-a-beach-umbrella from shopper's for a cool $9. Not as nice looking as Unikko...but it'll do temporarily until I lose it

Having the button release to open/close the umbrella is definitely convenient as you duck in and out of shops.

I agree with yours and others' comments - I'd be a bit more cheery if I was toting around a stylin' umbrella!
