Twilight Umbrella lets you sparkle in the rain

Rainy days are good for only one activity: sleeping in.

Unfortunately for those who still have to earn their keep, there's the weather to deal with. Which is why we're big fans of high-tech brollies here at Crave. They keep us (relatively) dry and make the journey less of a sodden trudge.

Two versions of the Twilight Umbrellas are available: the Starlight with sparkling white lights and the Spectrum with phasing multicolored lights. These attention-seeking LEDs require three AAA batteries and can be turned off. The inner lining is silver, but black on the outside. The umbrellas are available now on Firebox for $41.

Makes me wish I wasn't living in L.A.

Man, why can't this global climate change give Southern Cal more rain?
... I'm sure it'll be acid rain, but at least I'll look cool when it happens (at least, before it eats the umbrella).
