by Renae Virata

Just because the weather outside is blah doesn’t mean your umbrella has to be!  When people can’t see what you’re wearing on rainy days this summer, make a style statement when you’re under cover.

It’s easy to forget how something as useful as an umbrella can also act as an accessory.  There is no better way to spread some much needed cheer on a gray day than strolling the streets with a beautiful, giant flower or a photographic image of Paris that you can get lost in.

Airport style

by Renae Virata
