Has anyone seen and going cheep in shops recently?

I don't care if its paper, lace or a posh looking brolly.

I just need something to keep the sun off.

I found this site while trawling obsessively thru wedding magazines:

http://www.brolliesgalore.co.uk/

They have really expensive ones but some cheaper ones too. The Chantal Thomass ones are worth looking at for a bit of parasol-related drooling.

I have a couple from Phaze Clothing. Not a huge choice but well made and reasonably priced.

I appear to be agreeing with Diva a lot today!  

China town is a great place to try.  I got one from there for under £5.  It's really very pretty and good quality.
