Brits aren't the only ones crazy for the Queen as Her Majesty commemorates 60 years on the throne. We here in the colonies are also eager for all-things Elizabeth. The royal fun has crossed the pond with jubilee-themed fashions, commemorative china, perfume, furniture and accessories, making it possible to take part in the historic festivities from afar.

Actually the latest British invasion really began with all the fuss surrounding the nuptials of Kate and Wills last year. It hasn't ebbed since as the young royals have continued to command the spotlight. But the Queen's jubilee has caused a spike in all things British, perhaps appealing to the latent monarchists in all of us? Here are a few of our favorite Brit things.
