Lily-Lark Scroll UV protection sun parasol, rated UPF 50+

It took me a long time to bite the bullet and pay nearly $200 for something as seemingly frivolous as a parasol. But I am so glad I did! It is extremely dry and sunny where I live and there are days when I just don't want a hat on my head. This is so perfect for strolling in the park, around the neighborhood, the botanic gardens. And I'm quite surprised by how many compliments I get! I thought I would odd stares, but I don't. I'm so thrilled I bought this. And it's extremely well-made. I will buy another one in a different color.
