According to Vancouver-based boutique umbrella company Cheeky Umbrella, umbrellas are an opportunity to express yourself, and many people don’t make the most of it. They may be right – on the next rainy spring day, just take a look around at all of the plain-coloured, uninteresting and/or broken umbrellas on the streets.

“An umbrella is one of the most visible accessories you own, and just like a purse or a pair of shoes, it can be used to communicate or express your personality, your lifestyle and your sense of style. So why would you carry a boring umbrella if you’re not a boring person?” says Cheeky Umbrella Founder and President, Jen Zurowski.

Cheeky Umbrella?s new Spring 2012 designs include a multi-coloured polka dotted umbrella with a matching kids version (an adorable mom-and-daughter combo), a retro fuscia and turquoise patterned umbrella, and a unique reflective designed umbrella so the carrier can be seen on dark, rainy days. All of Cheeky?s products use bold graphic designs, colourful fabrics and printing, and attractive finishing details to create fashionable, eye-catching umbrellas, and they have a variety of designs and styles so that their customers can find the perfect umbrella to suit their personality.

Nothing puts a damper on a rainy day than a broken umbrella, so in addition to the cheerful designs, quality is a priority for Cheeky Umbrella. Each umbrella is made with top quality materials, and best of all, Cheeky stands behind their products with a Limited Lifetime Warranty that covers defects in materials and workmanship.

Cheeky Umbrella was launched in September 2008 by founder Jen Zurowski, who never even owned an umbrella until she moved to the notoriously rainy city of Vancouver. After searching high and low for an umbrella that would stand up to the wind and rain and yet still reflect her style and personality, the idea for Cheeky Umbrella was born. Today, Cheeky Umbrella manufactures high quality rain umbrellas with a focus on unique design.

For the latest fashion trends people often turn to celebrities for inspiration. But some of the best trendsetters in Hollywood are the children of celebrities, sporting the newest spring looks in smaller sizes.

?It?s fun to watch fashion trends among celebrity babies because their parents are usually clued into the latest styles,? said Sera Johanas, owner of Ella & Spencer, a popular online baby clothing boutique. ?Beyond fashion it?s important to look for high-quality clothing that?s soft, comfortable and can handle an active baby.?

With spring in full force, here are five celebrity baby fashion trends to look for in the months ahead:

Graphic T-Shirts

Warmer days mean it?s time to put away heavy sweaters and make room for lightweight T-shirts. Fun designs and messages on T-shirts and onesies are a major trend in baby fashion this year. For example, the Pluto line of baby clothing incorporates pop culture with witty messages and designs. Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner?s daughter Violet Affleck has been spotted wearing Pluto, which can be found at Ella & Spencer.

Stylish Shoes

Classic shoes from Converse in bright spring colors are making a comeback. The popular brand is now available in infant and toddler sizes. Mason Disick, son of Kourtney Kardashian, has been seen out and about in the latest from the iconic brand.

Bright Colors and Bold Prints

Alyson Hannigan?s daughter Satyana Denisof is often seen wearing bright colors and bold prints, a hot trend for the warmer months ahead. Mixing and matching stripes and playing with colors sets Denisof apart as one of the more stylish celebrity kids. The Pink Chicken line of clothing brings colorful spring style to soft cotton blends, keeping playtime stylish and comfortable.

Fun Accessories

Accessories are an important part of keeping up with the mini-fashionista status. Tights with colorful patterns are currently popular. They give a polished look while still keeping styles casual. Honor Warren, the daughter of Jessica Alba, and Nahla Aubry, the daughter of Halle Berry, have been seen playing up this look. In addition, stylish hair clips, hats and backpacks can take a look even further. Johanas said designers at Finn & Emma produce colorful hats, bibs, blankets and plush toys for boys and girls.

Dress It Up

Celebrity babies are no strangers to dressing up. The key is to keep clothing comfortable while still looking dapper. Shirtzie from Adam & Evan gives the button down look while keeping it in onesie form.

The mother-daughter team of PosePrints.com ? printing personalized caricature stationery since they launched their website in 2007 ? were inspired to add Wedding Programs to their product line after the original creation dazzled wedding guests at a special 2011 wedding.

Chronic Ice, an all-natural hemp iced tea, wants to do more than just quench consumers? thirst for a refreshing beverage?it will soon quench their thirst for knowledge about hemp. The new cans, due to hit the market next month, feature a list of facts about the history and health benefits of the plant that will explode the all-too-common misperception that hemp is just for getting high.

?Many people are still under the mistaken impression that hemp is psychoactive because marijuana comes from the same plant. In fact, people around the world have used hemp as a food and a fiber for thousands of years,? explained Jamal Weathers, a co-founder of Greenlight Beverages, the maker of Chronic Ice.

The new cans of Chronic Ice offer a few surprising facts about hemp:

Gerber, formed in 1939, originally manufactured field cutlery but its range of products diversified dramatically following the rapid rise of the company?s innovative multi-tool in 1991. Now Gerber manufactures a range of state-of-the-art specialist outdoor equipment, knives and LED torches.

The new range of products featured on the Multi-Tools website includes a number of multi tools. The range encompasses everything from the butterfly opening Suspension multi tool which features tools such as a fine-edge blade and a crosspoint screwdriver through to the Gerber Grappler and Pro Scout 600 multitools, which feature the same plus much, much more.

Lee Taylor, General Manager at Multi-Tools, said: ?Gerber make fantastic multitools, that much is obvious. This new range expands on what they do so well, manufacture top quality multi tools. These tools are what we specialise in so we?re always looking to extend the range we have on offer and we?re delighted to be able to add such products like a Gerber multi tool to our site. We expect them to sell very well.?

Gerber multi tools all feature rust resistant stainless steel, high performance tools which combine ergonomics, style and durability, the ability to access each tool independently, automatic locking systems and a sliding lock release mechanism. To add to the refined elegance of the Gerber multi tool, many come with a ballistic nylon pouch to provide additional protection.

As well as the traditional range of products, Multi-Tools has added other products by Gerber including diamond knife sharpening tools and folding knives. However, as you?d expect from an expert manufacturer of multi-tools, Gerber?s folding knives are more than just that. Although not as extensive as their multitools, the folding knives still come with a number of additional tools such as screwdrivers and bottle openers.

Lee added: ?Like I said, we expect these to sell very well. They are seriously high quality and the range of tools and features in each product has to be seen to be believed. Having added accessories such as blade sharpeners to the site too, we have added that something extra for the Gerber enthusiast, or just anyone who requires reliable quality knife sharpening tools.?

The new Gerber products are now live on the Multi-Tools website. This recent expansion demonstrates Multi-Tools commitment to providing the best quality multi tools and accessories at affordable prices.

Multi-Tools is part of the ever expanding Plumbworld Network. Plumbworld was an early pioneer of online trading, started by James and Anita Hickman in 1999 and sold to the Grafton Group PLC in December 2006. Plumbworld now employs more than 50 people in its purpose built warehouse and offices and boasts an astonishing 50+ websites selling everything from heated towel rails and leaf blowers to food smokers and electric screwdrivers.

They are hoping to be open by the spring.

Lorelei?s clothing store and the Naples Soap Company will be other additions coming soon, along with Fast N Fresh casual restaurant and Pincher?s Crab Shack.

Teen actress Allisyn Arm, who starred as Zora on Disney Channel?s ?Sonny With A Chance? and currently stars as a series regular on their new hit show ?So Random,? is BYOU Be Your Own You magazine?s newest cover girl

Teen actress Allisyn Arm, who starred as Zora on Disney Channel?s ?Sonny With A Chance? and currently stars as a series regular on their new hit show ?So Random,? is BYOU Be Your Own You magazine?s newest cover girl. In this issue, she offers an exclusive interview with BYOU CEO Debra Gano, where she discusses her thoughts about some of the greatest challenges girls face today and offers advice on how to maintain healthy self-esteem and stay empowered.

?I think one of the biggest challenges for girls today is a new one: cyber bullying,? says 15-year-old Arm. ?Mean comments posted about you online are not OK. Usually someone is trying to be funny and they often don?t mean what they wrote, and almost always they wouldn?t say it to you in person. If it?s really hurtful, or even threatening, then you need to tell a parent or teacher right away!?

Gano, founder and publisher of BYOU Be Your Own You magazine, looks for positive role models for their readers. ?Girls today need as many healthy influences as possible. Allisyn is incredibly sweet, kind, and authentic ? she really exemplifies the qualities we encourage in girls and we are thrilled to have her be such a positive role model for us!? says Gano.

She asked Arm to offer a key self-esteem tip for girls. ?Express yourself, and don?t worry about what others think,? advises Arm. ?Your clothes, hairstyles, make-up, etc. should be how you see yourself, not just an attempt to fit in.?

BYOU Be Your Own You magazine is a new self-esteem magazine for girls ages 7-15, and focuses on building confidence, inner beauty awareness, and making a difference in the world. It features exclusive interviews with today?s positive celebrity role models, empowering stories of ?real? girls making a positive impact, and powerful self-esteem tips, projects, quizzes, puzzles and more ? all encouraging girls to ?be your own you.’ As part of BYOU, LLC, the magazine supports the positive-messaging offered in BYOU?s apparel and education for girls.

The annual subscription rate is $ 17.97 and can be ordered at http://www.shopBYOU.com.
