January 26, 2012

Yesterday you slipped on your suede shoes and bag and, incredibly, were having a good hair day. So of course there was a torrential downpour with flood warnings.

Don’t let the weather get in the way of gorgeous, thanks to local cousins Ronald Obmaces and Josephine Firat’s new UZO Umbrella. Just in time for spring showers, the genius asymmetrical shape and luxe coating allows water to bead right off. The posh protector, already picked up by fashion mecca Bergdorf’s, combines artistic perspective, sleek colors and a cherrywood handle. You’ll be wishing for thunderstorms just to show it off.

Forecast: Cloudy with a chance of chic.
