No matter where you live, the weather is likely to be unpredictable, at least for part of the year. In order to be prepared, it is handy to have an umbrella on hand. Luckily, there seems to be a trend to carry around a designer umbrella these days. Rather than risk ruining your clothes, shoes, and hair in an unexpected thundershower, make sure that you have an umbrella stashed in your car. You might also want to keep a couple of different designs in your closet at home, so that you always have a cover that is a complement to your overall style.
Back during the Victorian era, the parasol was an essential accessory and women used them for protection from the sun, maybe more than they did for rain. Over time, the parasol was replaced by the umbrella – a sturdy and less chic accessory. However, the practicality of an umbrella cannot be denied. In some countries and cities, there are quite a few umbrellas moving down the street whether the day is sunny or rainy. The shift from decorative to practical does not mean that the shade won’t work as an important accessory in your wardrobe. A designer umbrella can add a bit of color, pattern, or contrast to the rest of your outfit.
It may be a surprise to some people that the umbrella is popular as a promotional product, but not for those who live in areas with plenty of rain. A uniquely designed umbrella can add as much practical usefulness as a plain black umbrella. Because of this, many businesses have come to realize the potential to increase brand recognition and to advertise (at no extra cost) for several years. An umbrella isn’t likely to be thrown away after a convention or event and it is easy to transport from one area to another.
Whether you are looking for a way to refresh your wardrobe or you want to find a way to tastefully advertise your business, the designer umbrella may be the answer. There are plenty of design options from polka dots to recycled plastic. Are you hoping to bring a bit of color into the gray days of the rainy season? Would you like to see a bold red umbrella emblazoned with your business logo? Maybe you would like to provide your employees with a logo-ed umbrella as a reward for their hard work.
A designer umbrella has many purposes and comes in a huge selection of colors and styles. Take advantage of the many practical (whether for work or play) uses of a trendy and distinguished designer umbrella.
