Fashion umbrellas | BCBusiness
The must-have accessory, even for those averse to accessorizing: the stylish Vancouver umbrella. No matter how much you love B.C., the wet season from January to April does its best to flatten the (now mercifully defunct) “Best Place on Earth” moniker. Rain, wind, short days and damp cold combine for a perfect storm of the blahs, but being caught in the weather doesn’t have to mean feeling under it. Your best defense against grey skies could be as simple as a colourful, locally-sourced umbrella.
