Still Life first opened their doors on Victoria, BC’s historic Johnson Street in 1984. The boutique quickly became a shopping destination, attracting customers with their unique selection of vintage clothing and indie labels. Matt and Kim Jensen took the ownership reins in 2007, breathing new life into the business and offering a more modern POV. Curated with a laidback edit of clothing, accessories and housewares, this iconic shop is now nestled amongst a growing community of like-minded, locally-owned stores in Victoria and opened a second location across the water in Vancouver.

Minimalism has always been a great summer stance, but Vagabond Boutique makes it possible year round. Blending a strong bohemian sensibility with everyday wearability, the Philadelphia-based shop offers a selection of indie designers like Ilana Kohn and Black Crane, with an emphasis on curating wardrobe necessities, easy pieces, and all-season staples that surely travel as well as any vagabond would.
