With the rain now hitting Vancouver after months of dry weather, it is really becoming apparent how necessary a good umbrella is. This version from London Undercover is an attractive and sturdily built option and, short of losing it, would not need to be replaced anytime soon.

Polka dots and camouflage are not particularly hard to find patterns this season, but that doesn't mean you should ignore them. Both are still among my favorites.

Words

It's definitely the time of year to have an umbrella handy at all times. For some reason I've never actually purchased one that will last me, although I often wish I had. There are some great classic options out there, but if you're after something a little more unique, Tenue de Nîmes have teamed up with London Undercover to produce this denim umbrella. The design is subtle and the materials look nice, but are still functional. I actually like the small illustrations as well, done by Hiyoko Imai.
