Cheeky Umbrella - Review


I found some of the cutest umbrellas I've ever seen and I would love to share them with you! You'll find cute and colorful rain umbrellas at Cheeky Umbrella where their moto is 'Laugh in the Face of Rain'. I think that's a perfect moto for this company. Their umbrellas are stylish, sassy and strong. This little excerpt is from the website:
Like a private joke between you and your brolly, the underside of each umbrella has a cheeky statement scrolled along the edge such as "It's raining, it's
pouring, other umbrellas are boring", "When does it start raining men?" or "I
prefer umbrellas in my cocktails". It will keep a smile on your face while you're tucked underneath it on a rainy day.

Here's some interesting info about how Cheeky Umbrella was born:
Cheeky Umbrella founder Jen Zurowski never even owned an umbrella before she moved to the notoriously rainy city of Vancouver, BC on the west coast of Canada. After searching high and low for an umbrella that would stand up to the wind and rain, and yet still reflect her style and personality, the idea for Cheeky Umbrella was born.

Cheeky Umbrella's products are based on a belief in embracing and enjoying the rain. Each umbrella is designed to brighten a rainy day with: stylish designs that make you look and feel good, sassy statements that bring a smile to your face, and strength to keep you dry and protected.

The lovely Jen over at Cheeky Umbrella sent me this sassy little Raining Men Umbrella to try out. Some of its features are strong, lightweight frame, Fiberglass, wind-resistant ribs, durable, quick-drying pongee fabric and slip-resistant hook handle. The diameter is approximately 40" when open.

I have to say, my experience with this umbrella was great! The material is very high quality and you can tell it won't flip open or up while in use like alot of other umbrellas would. It's really stylish and very easy to wash. I thought this umbrella was a great size too. It's large in diameter and the 'bowl' or whatever you'd call it (Yeah, I honestly don't know the technical term lol) seems higher than other umbrellas I've had before. Did I mention it's really super cute too? The Raining Men Umbrella is so perfect for gloomy days with funky yellow daises on it.

Mother's Day is just around the corner and what mom wouldn't love a stylish new umbrella! Head on over to Cheeky Umbrella to see which one you'd like.

Those umbrellas are so cute! I love how the exterior is the adorable design and the inside has the saying. Almost like it's reserved for your own inside joke.
