Recommend me a small, lightweight but robust umbrella

Hello ladies,

As per title I'm looking for a small lightweight good quality umbrella to keep in my handbag for days it might rain.

This is intended to allow me to wear coats without a hood and try to be more stylish :)

Budget is pretty flexible, quality is important, fed up of cheap brollies that break.

I'd like a nice but low key design, so not black, but not boden at its most floral.

thanks
Katy

Muji make good foldable umbrellas. They're the only ones I don't manage to break within a couple of weeks.

another vote for the Muji foldable umbrellas. They’re great

Thanks both. Any idea of sizes of their umbrellas? I love muji, but no details on website of sizes.

Thanks Katy

I've bought umbrellas that have been sold as 'unbreakable' with a price to match. Sooner or later they all break so I no longer bother trying.

Now I'm all about the £1 umbrellas from Poundland.
