HoneystorePrincess Lace Ultraviolet-Proof Folding Umbrella Anti-uv Dome Parasol

Very beautiful and great parasol. I used this on my trip to Disney World in Florida. The heat was still intense, but it definitely gave me a lot of shade. It helped me keep the sun out of my eyes as well. Not only that, it's compact and cute. I will say that it's a bit difficult wrapping it up with its strap, but after some getting used to (and a bit of strength) you can close it.I will just say as a warning to people ordering this, there is a chance you will get a parasol that doesn't open up all the way. I had to return a previous one due to that. Regardless, I would still order from here.You also get a cute bracelet (or some other free gift) as a free gift.The handle at the bottom might pop off if you spin it too much, but it can be easily screwed back into place.I loved this parasol, and I will likely be using it from outings. The material is nice, and it can suit the rain, although I have not used it in rain yet.Update as of August 28, 2017I ended up using this parasol in the rain on my way back from Florida. There was a windy storm during the trip back. It held up well and protected from the rain just as well as a regular umbrella. I really love this umbrella, it's cute and useful!

You want a sun proof umbrella this is it. You want a water proof umbrella this is it. You want to look like you walked right out of a gothic catalog this umbrella is your man. Fan of anime and want to look super Kawii? This umbrella no joke. I can’t begin to say how many complements I have gotten with it. I bought it when it was still raining locally and this umbrella took the storm and did so in style. Now that It is hot as all hell outside this umbrella is still rock able. The little lace detail gives it such a unique look to it. I enjoy the versatility of this umbrella but I also secretly love the hand bag it came in. All of the umbrellas I have owned in the past just had a Velcro wrap that would hold the umbrella in place when it wasn’t being used. (this on also has that feature) but this umbrella went a step forward and gave me a cute little waterproof bag to keep it in that has lace to match the umbrella itself. Over all I love this umbrella and would recommend though I will give the warning of this is a black umbrella so if you’re getting it to hide from the heat be aware black + sun = hot even in shade.

This umbrella is incredibly cute, and huge despite being so portable. It's sunproof, so I use it as a parasol on especially sunny days (saved my life when we were in L.A. actually, haha) but it's also waterproof and works fine in regular rain, making it a tremendous investment for how much you can use it for. And it's pretty sturdy, I've gotten a lot of use out of it with no damage, even when it got stuck in some things.

For the price it is better than expected, feels sturdy and folds very small. I did find one pinhole sized hole on the inside lining but it is nothing difficult to quickly patch and hardly visible, the fact I saw it at all was a fluke. It is nice and thick and should definitely hold up in rain or a little bit of wind, but certainly nothing extremely strong. I imagine it would struggle in high winds like most.The lace was neat and clean cut and it looks very cute. Handle seems roughed up. For some reason there was a very cute tiny bracelet in my box as well for this with a kiwi slice charm on it?? No idea if this was meant to be in there or not but I won't complain!!

Really helpful for walking around the city in the heat.

This is a nice umbrella/parasol combo with a few really obnoxious problems. It's very good at doing its job, and looks way cuter in real life than in the pictures, with an neat little dotty internal pattern and "blank space" that's both smaller and less-ugly (even pretty!) than it looks here. Unfortunately, it's kind of awkward to use, and it won't last a long time unless you're very careful with it. Definitely don't be afraid to glue the legs/spars of the umbrella back in their holes - just one *small* dab of gorilla glue on the hole before you put the leg back in is plenty for it to hold for a much longer time. Don't expect it to close down as small as it is when you first get it, and it takes a good bit of time to tie is closed without twisting the legs all around. That said, it's still really good at blocking both rain and sun, and the material is quite thick and opaque. It's a good value if you carry a bigger purse or bag and are willing to be very careful and spend some extra time on it, but be sure you're aware of its disadvantages before you order.Pros:Wonderful at blocking both rain and sunReally cute - the pictures don't really do it justiceThe lace is durable, but still looks delicateCute little charm beads hanging from the handlePretty decent quality for the priceCons:The "spars" don't stay in their holes very well - I had to superglue some of mine back inThe different sections of the telescoping handle rod get stuck or come loose pretty easily - expect it to take some pretty serious structural damage if you're rough with it or a kid messes with it or something.Really hard to close all the way without damaging itIt tries to be purse-sized, but it's a little too bulkyDoesn't really fit into its carrying case very wellCoverage is a little small - if you have long legs, don't expect this to keep them dry in a big rainstorm, especially if there's windThe handle is kind of awkward to hold, especially if you have bigger hands.

I don't tend to use these in the rain but I had to recently with this parasol which I've had for months and surprisingly it did it's job well! It kept me dry and the fabric quality is still the same. Good purchase.

It’s cute and, in theory, I like the little carrying pouch, but the stem things that open up the umbrella came unattached from the fabric literally the first time I opened it, so be aware that quality is hit or miss - I’m sure it’s a defect and not all of them, but I unfortunately missed my return window
