The shade includes a relatively rigid panel having a size and shape configured to cover the window, a retainer button permanently attached to the window having a releasable retainer element on the opposed side and a connector button attached to the shade panel having a mating releasable retainer element, and a handle is attached to the shade panel, preferably coaxially aligned with the connector and retainer buttons. The retainer elements preferably comprise a plurality of resilient, generally linear connector elements projecting from each of the buttons having transverse end connector portions providing a releasable connection between the buttons and the connector button is preferably permanently adhesively bonded to the window.
