The very stylish Ms Dolly Decorator first introduced me to the Brussel Sprouts umbrella from London Undercover when she blogged about it back in February.
What can I say – it was love at first sight for me. I’m a bit of a sucker for a funky brolly at the best of times, but this one took the cake. It had everything I look for in a brolly – style, functionality, sufficient quirk-factor to readily identify it as mine (when thrown in amongst a sea of black umbrellas). I ordered one and it duly arrived a couple of weeks later, all the way from London-town. I was a happy wee camper.
Then, last week my Vogue Living arrived in the post. Oh, happy day! Imagine my surprise when I spotted THIS on page 84…
I would like it to go on record that (thanks in large part to the lovely Ms Dolly Decorator) I am, for once in my life, ahead of the Vogue Living stylist pack… Woohoo!
If you decide you would like one of these fabulous brollies, head on over to London Undercover and order one for £28.00 (+ postage to your wee corner of the world).

HI,
No I don’t like this, I think the umberalla looks sort of neat, but I hate brussel sprouts. 😀
