April Showers

Already this month, on the 1st of April no less, I have been caught without an umbrella. I have a collection of flimsy black drugstore umbrellas piled up in my closet, most defective in one way or another, so I decided to invest in a new one. Here are some of the ones that have piqued my interest.

	Totes Eco Umbrella The latest in the line of green accessories. 44" arc made from 100% recycled PET plastic bottles. Bamboo shaft consists of 70% recycled materials. Auto open/close. Available in blue, black, khaki, and green. @ Target for $17.99
Totes Pink Ribbon Collection Slender 'brella With SunGuard Use this pink Swiss dot umbrella for protection from rain or sun. Lifetime warranty. Isotoner will donate a portion of proceeds to organizations that fight breast cancer. Reg. $18 @ Luggage Point for $13.95
	MTA Indicator Sign Skinny Umbrella This slim-sized, 40" arc umbrella can be tucked inside your bag. With its windproof design, it's a reliable defense against the elements. Reg. $24 @ Luggage Point for $16.00
Marimekko Unikko Mini Flat Manual Umbrella This petite number is the antithesis of the basic black umbrella, and I love it. It's easy to stow away at only 6" folded, but still has a 40" arc. Get it in black/white, blue, or red. Reg. $30 @ eBags for $24
	TRAY 6 Travel Size Umbrella If your budget allows, get one of these signature print umbrellas. Steel frame, rubber-coated hook handle, auto open, and 38" arc. Available in a variety of colors and prints @ Bella and Lina for $52 (the best price online) Bella and Lina is worth a visit even if you're not in the market for a new umbrella. The boutique's selection of handmade accessories and gifts is impressive.

Recycled Memorabilia

The rumors are true, Hush Shop's favorite childhood boy band, the New Kids on the Block, are back! Their upcoming appearance Friday, April 4th, on the Today Show has inspired me to look for memorabilia from the past in hopes I'll be wearing it to a future concert. There are oodles of goodies on eBay, but I love these one-of-a-kind handbags, both made from vintage bed sheets. Get them before the mania starts.

This tote features our favorite brothers Jordan Knight, on one side, and Jonathan Knight, on the other. Measures 12" X 16". Handles are 1 1/2" wide and 22" long. Sheet has been interfaced for stiffness and durability. Grey lining with a small inside pocket. Price: $27 Seedling Textiles Store @ Etsy

Made from the same New Kids on the Block bed sheet, but in a hobo style, and featuring my favorite New Kid Joey McIntyre on the front, this bag Measures 18" X 13". It's lined with a pale yellow fabric, has 2 pockets on the inside for keys, wallet, or cellphone, and two handle straps. Price: $25 From Fivecats @ Etsy

Seen at Anthrolopolgie: Tano Clutch

Anthropologie has some great handbags and wallets right now. The variety is pretty fantastic, too (leather, fabric, patterned, embellished, and lots of colors).

One clutch, in particular, struck me as being very timeless and stylish. It's the envelope-styled, rose-colored Postal Service Clutch. Measuring 6" x 12" with two compartments, two pockets, and six card slots, it's roomy enough to carry around during the day and small enough to easily transition into a night out. @ Anthropologie for $98

Get It For Less
While I couldn't find it in rose elsewhere, I tracked it down in grey, deep red, gold, and bronze, four colors that will never go out of style. Now for the best part, red and grey are 30% off at Arizona-based Martin's online store. And Must Have Bag is selling the gold and bronze metallic suede versions for $79. Get your favorite one before it's gone!
