The Chicago Sun-Times shopping maven Jessica Sedgwick honors National Umbrella Month by her readers to treat themselves to a "little undercover fashion." In do so, she quotes Satoko Kobayashi, owner of pare*umbrella, one of several new companies who offer artsy, statement-making umbrellas: "Now is the time people have started to think, 'Now we need something more than a compact umbrella. Something beautiful to carry around.' "Sedgwick goes further, in her Sun-Times shopping blog, to point us to famous movie umbrellas and where to find them. In particular, she highlights the "Singin' in the Rain/Batman Returns" black stick umbrella, the "Lost in Translation" clear umbrella, and the "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg" stick umbrellas "in every color including red, pink blue and yellow."
