UK Weather: 5 Fun Umbrellas You Won't Leave On The Bus

Brits should always carry a brolly just in case.

Let’s face it, the sunshine weather was never going to last – this is the UK, after all. But instead of getting cross and booking a holiday somewhere we can guarantee sunshine, let’s embrace the constantly-changing British weather.

The Norwegians say there is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing, so we’re making 2019 the year that we buy an umbrella (sensible) and make a promise to ourselves not to lose it within the first week of ownership. 

Here are the seven best brollies the internet has to offer.

Cartoon dog umbrella, Cath Kidston, £20 (was £28)

We don’t care what you say, you will not find a better umbrella than this if you are a lover of all things dog. Covered in sketches of puppies and with a dog-face handle, you are channeling Mary Poppins. You couldn’t possibly leave this on a bus because you’ll be too busy trying to show everyone how great it is.

Yellow plain umbrella, Jolly Brolly, £4.99

Amongst a sea of black umbrellas, is there anything better than a ray of sunshine on a rainy day? We think not. This bright yellow umbrella cannot fail to put a smile on your face, and let’s be honest that’s what we all need with another few months of winter left to go.

Palm tropical leaf umbrella, Alice Scott, £16

Palm prints are all over our interiors boards on Pinterest and now they are on our brollies too. This Alice Scott umbrella is channeling House of Hackney, but at a much cheaper price. Snap it up before they all sell out.

Navy raindrop umbrella, Grass and Air, £15

Okay, admittedly reminding ourselves that it is raining when our feet are soaked and our hair is frizzy doesn’t feel like the best idea, but this rain cloud umbrella is just too cute not to be included. If anything, maybe it will make us more fond of the rain...?
