Parasol anyone?

In Suzhou, we visited a fabulous night market and in this shop htey were just selling parasols. In China, and in fact most of Asia, women do not like the sun as it makes thier skin go dark and that is not attractive to them - it is usually associated with poor peasants. Most skin care products here have a whitening agent in them and that why  I bring all my cosmetics from the UK. Anyway, in summer people are walking around with the most beautiful parasols.......I almost tempted except that  I do like the sun.......shine on.
