so... this is pretty random...

does anyone know where i can find a large umbrella in white, lavender/purple or light blue? it's got to be a full-size one, not a fold-up.

somewhere in brooklyn (fort greene, clinton hill, park slope, downtown) would be ideal. i'm dressing up and need it for my costume.

thanks!

    no real help here, but what the hell are you dressing up as?

    Macy's?

    Strawberry on Fulton St. has a suprisingly large selection of umbrellas.

    i'm dressing up as the morton's salt umbrella girl.

    i know - this is silly.

    i checked macy's and strawberry - and just about everywhere else on fulton - surprisingly, no dice.

    i've heard they have them at uniqlo but am trying to avoid going to soho.

    No , not silly . I think it's cute! :)

    If you can't find an umbrella in those colors, just try black.

    thanks, all. i ended up having to go to soho anyway so picked up a light blue umbrella at uniqlo (i tried for the latest version).

    I just saw a bunch of different colored umbrellas in Jack's 99 cent store on 32nd in Manhattan for future reference.
