Our friends at Realm & Empire are kicking the new Spring/Summer season off to a fresh start, with the launch of their new SS14 collection and a brand spanking new website. As with all of their collections, the story begins with a trip to the Imperial War Museum, along with a notepad, trusty camera, a passion for military history and trawling through archived photos. Each year the IWM allow Realm & Empire exclusive access to the extensive archives, which ensures all of their collections are accurately inspired by real life events and rich British Heritage.
The guys at R&E asked me to take part in their Blogger Edit Series, focusing on their SS14 Collection - Above I have picked out a few of my favorite pieces, which have just gone live on the site.
Trench Print Desert Shirt | Jungle Green Cargo Shorts | Ever Eye Open Sweater | DUKW Tee | Tobacco Cargo Trousers | Chambray Dot Scarf | Khaki Tank Cap
Their merino wool hat is still keeping my head toasty from AW13 but it makes a nice change to be thinking about warmer weather and not getting hit by horizontal rain all day! Thank you to R&E for asking me to take part, click the links above to see more shots of the individual products.
I'm really keen on the floral shirt, which has been inspired by wartime wallpaper. What's your favourite piece from my SS edit?
