It's Raining Cats and Dogs from Head to Toe!

After months of planning, creating and lots of waiting, we finally have our first DLL Rainwear women's matching rain outfit!!!

The umbrella is auto open and covered with the same whimsical pattern of falling kitties and puppies on a rich navy background.


The coat, modeled below by our very own Tabitha, DLL's resident scary mannequin, is a soft waterproof polyurethane material with a thin nylon lining. The pattern is found on the inside of the hood, around the cuff straps and on the sash. The coat is mid-thigh in length with snap closures down the length of the coat and deep front pockets. The coat appears to be a much lighter navy in this photo than the boots. Although the colors aren't exactly the same due to the different materials used in each item (rubber VS polyurethane) they aren't as different as the pictures make them appear.





Raining Cats & Dogs Umbrella (on our website soon): $24.95





Women's Raining Cats & Dogs Rain Coat (on our website soon): $49.95





Women's Raining Cats and Dogs rain boots: $59.95


Next in the works for DLL Private label items are a clog in a very cute bohemian floral pattern, a toile boot and a matching coat and umbrella for the Feminista boots.

I'll continue to keep you posted on the progress...

Bloggin off for now.

Gorgeous Italian Umbrellas

We just got the most beautiful Italian umbrellas. They are so gorgeous that the photos we have don't do them justice but here are some pictures anyway.











We also have three other umbrellas by this same Italian company that have fruit designs on them. There is one with apples, one with oranges and one with strawberries. Very fun and colorful!
This umbrella maker has some absolutely spectacular things. They have umbrellas with Swarovski crystals as well as other beads and amazing embellishments as well as handles in silver, gold, special wood etc. You can basically customize your own umbrella it you have the desire and a load of cash. Here are a few of my favorites (which we don't have as they cost a FORTUNE). And seriously? Would you be able to bring this amazing piece of art into a downpour? Me neither.



Fabric Flower Umbrella--I love this one!



This one has tiny shimmery seed beads sewn into floral shapes along the edge of the umbrella. And the gold handle? Fancy! Reminds me of Princess Diana.

Bloggin off for now.
