The Latest Celebrity Trend - Parasols!
The practice of using parasols and personal umbrellas for sun protection has been in vogue in Europe, Asia and South America for years.
But the growing anti-aging trend has only recently caught on in the United States led by fashionable skin-conscious celebrities like Gwen Stefani, Anne Hathaway, and Cameron Diaz.
California-based Persolé (derived from the Italian phrase per il sole, meaning for the sun), caters to smart, skin-savvy and chic women of all ages with its stunning line of Italian-crafted, Swarovski crystal encrusted, personal sun umbrellas and parasols.
Conceptualized in California. Made in Italy.
Persolé
Persolé is inspired by the timelessness of iconic brands Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Marchesa and Hermès. These statement-making personal umbrellas and parasols complement any outfit, whether jeans and a tee worn to a soccer game or a red carpet-worthy designer gown.
A tasteful patented crystal bracelet fits snugly to keep Persolé closed when not in use and slips easily onto the wrist when the umbrella is open.
Designed for women in their 30s, 40s and beyond, Persolé has found its place with men and 20-something women as well and have been spotted in the hands of celebrities and fashion-forward women across the globe.
100% Functional. 100% Fabulous.
Lisa Marie Walsh, Founder
A former international equities broker who left the markets to pursue a career in design, Lisa Walsh has been a successful entrepreneur and business woman for over 20 years.
Lisa had always taken care of her skin via the traditional routes of sunscreen, shade and oversized hats. But sunscreens need to be reapplied regularly and contain harsh chemicals, while hats – even oversized hats – don’t provide enough coverage and can ruin a perfectly good hair day. A fair-skinned redhead, Lisa was constantly on the hunt for effective yet stylish sun protection options. Inspiration struck one hot and sunny afternoon when the only thing she had on hand to protect her face and neck from the sun was a weathered umbrella.
That was in 2011. Today Persolé, caters to smart, skin-conscious and stylish consumers with its stunning line of Italian-crafted, UV protection couture umbrellas and parasols.
At Persolé Lisa oversees all aspects of design, manufacturing and distribution. When not traveling the globe on Persolé business, Lisa enjoys spending time with friends and family at her home in California.
