With the power to block out the light so you're cool in the shade and safe from sunburns, umbrellas are essential additions to any alfresco ensemble. Take this one for example: designed to live outdoors, it is constructed from weather-resistant materials that don't mind UV light beaming down or rainstorms rolling through. For a fun pop of pattern, its canopy sports a stripe motif. Plus, it offers a crank lever for easy opening and closing.
