Crossword Genius

Colour of a sunshade? (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tan

I believe this is a double definition.

'colour' is the first definition.
(I know that tan is a colour)

'a sunshade?' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'of' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for tan that I've seen before include "Sun-baked colour" , "Healthy sun-burned colour" , "Catch the sun" , "Lie in sun" , "Brown colour acquired from sun" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
