My Lens About The Parasol
Why parasols? I like parasols. They seem so romantic! I like to pick topics for my lens that I don't think anyone else might have.They say parasols are making a come-back. They keep the sun off your delicate skin and celebrities are now being seen with them including an aide with Michael Jackson Who carried one for him! They make a beautiful fashion statement and bridesmaids are now using them in weddings. You can even make your own with your own fabric choice to match an outfit. Lots of period costumes out there nowadays, for such activities as re-enactments of civil war or for stage plays use a parasol, too! How about one with a period Halloween costume or at a little girls birthday or tea party?
Parasols on Wikipedia
:"Parasol" redirects here. For other uses, see Umbrella (disambiguation), Umbrella (song) or Parasol (disambiguation)
An umbrella or parasol (sometimes colloquially, gamp, brolly, or bumbershoot) is a canopy designed to protect against precipitation or sunlight. The term parasol usually refers to an item designed to protect from the sun, and umbrella refers to a device more suited to protect from rain. Often the difference is the material; some parasols are not waterproof. Parasols are often meant to be fixed to one point and often used with patio tables or other outdoor furniture, or on the beach for shelter from the sun. Umbrellas are almost exclusively hand-held portable devices; however, parasols can also be hand-held. Umbrellas can be held as fashion statements in the twenty first century for some men and women and are sometimes seen as simple accessories that complete an outfit.
The word umbrella is from the Latin word umbra, which in turn derives from the Ancient Greek ómbros (??????). Its meaning is shade or shadow. Brolly is a slang word for umbrella, used often in Britain, New Zealand and Australia. Bumbershoot is a fanciful Americanism from the late 19th centuryWorldWideWords - Origin of the world "Bumbershoot".

Ever Hear of Parashells?
Interview With "Parashell" Designer
PingMag gets the back story on Tokyo-based Canadian expat John Di Cesare's Parashell umbrellas & parasols. Working with a 73 year old umbrella maker in Ome, near Tokyo, he prototyped an idea he had back in Canada based on the shapes and forms of sea shells.In Japan, everybody and his uncle has an idea for a weird-shaped umbrella. Seriously, if you go to the patent office you see. So I think for them, they were just like, "Here we go, another guy with a weird umbrella idea."
We've seen a few asymmetric umbrellas to tackle fierce weather, this one's more of a well-made elegant accessory and given the increasing awareness of the sun's harmful damage, there's certainly a growing niche market for the parashell.

My Fair Lady
MY FAIR LADY (1964) Trailer
Rex Harrison reprises his signature stage role of Henry Higgins, the supremely assured phoneticist who wagers that under his tutelage, cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle can pass for a duchess at the Embassy Ball. In one of her best-loved roles, Audrey Hepburn plays Eliza. If ever there was a face the professor could grow accustomed to, it's hers. In Hartford, Heresford, Hampshire (and elsewhere) no one's fairer than My Fair Lady, one of the most irresistible musical ever. Warner Bros. Pictures announces with pride My Fair Lady (The Story of a Lady) The Winner of eight 1964 Academy Awards. Book & Lyrics by: Alan Jay Lerner Music by: Frederick Loewe Play by: George Bernard Shaw Screenplay: Alan Jay Lerner Producer: Jack L. Warner Director: George Cukor
