dwellings and décor

When I first came across this beautiful lace umbrella by Conran USA on the bottom left hand corner I knew I wanted to do a post on pretty outdoor umbrellas. Not an easy task. Come to find out most outdoor umbrellas are pretty simplistic and plain. If you know any good sites with more interesting designs please leave a comment with the link. The first one on the top left hand corner is from target and it is definitely less decorative but I love the subtle touch of the tie backs. It gives it a pretty appeal probably because its similar to a ruffly skirt. The one next it and the one on the bottom right hand corner are from The Urban Garden. They are also very beautiful but I am not sure how well they would hold up in a tropical storm. :)
