Senz Mini travel size umbrella
It really was way past time that someone did something about the umbrella. If you recently got drenched in these wicked storms that are plaguing different parts of the U.S., you would know what I mean. This unusual looking umbrellas claims to hear your pain. It does everything; folds for carrying in the bag, provides a clear forward view and withstand 40 mph winds! Why didn’t someone tell me about this on Tuesday when I got soaked in NYC’s storm? By the way, they also have this umbrella in larger sizes.

Cherry messanger bag - Pacha inspired?
when I saw this bag, it seemed a bit familiar. Actually it seemed a lot familiar. The cherries are just way too much like the logo of Pacha. See for yourself.
So okay, the leaves are red but still. Anyway, even if this is not an official Pacha bag, we still like it for its design and we really dig its wide strap and closure. It is made from recycled sails and has velcro to keep flaps in place.
