Celebrate Being British This Year with a Truly British Brand
LONDON, May 29, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
It's hard to avoid the fact that this summer the British public are set to experience two of the most patriotic events (other than a Royal Wedding of course), that a nation can ever expect to encounter in such a close proximity.
And with the Royal Wedding still so fresh in many minds, when better for these prestigious events to occur. The events in reference are of course the Queen's Diamond Jubilee (2nd-5th June) and the summer games.
The Queen's Diamond Jubilee marks the 60th year of Queen Elizabeth's reign over Britain, a reign equalled only by Queen Victoria in 1897. To commemorate this momentous landmark in her life the Queen has gifted the nation a bank holiday, during which festivities are expected to be a plenty. The Epsom Derby is set to draw the crowds on Saturday 2nd June, then Sunday is the Thames Diamond Jubilee Pageant, during which up to one thousand boats will make up the largest armada ever to have sailed the Thames. Lead by The Queen, the journey starts upstream of Battersea Bridge, and meanders down towards Tower Bridge, completing 4 hours of ceremonial sailing.
Just less than two months after the Queen's Diamond Jubilee marks the beginning of the summer games. Yet another excuse for the British public to come together, don the red, white and blue face-paints, and fly the Union Jack as they cheer on their athletes.
All over London, retailers have started to stock flags, bunting, picnic sets, and anything else that can be used to help celebrate these historical events. There is a clear sense of excitement brewing within the country and the people of Great Britain are set to come together this summer, and celebrate these momentous occasions as one.
Crew Clothing is one retailer that is embracing this patriotic notion and has organised a sale with a very British focus. Having originated in Salcombe, Devon, Crew Clothing has a rich heritage in British fashion, and how better to represent this history than celebrating with the people of Britain. On top of introducing a 'Fly The Flag' range based around the Union Jack design, with products such as a 'Union Jack Umbrella' and a 'Union Jack Charm Bracelet', Crew are also offering 15% off any product featuring a Union Jack motif, when using the code "FLAG15" in their online store.
