Our first seasonal delivery from the UK sportswear legends at Fred Perry has arrived in the Garden City with spring styles now available at both Still Life For Him & For Her. A brand as focussed and quality-driven as Fred Perry always finds an immediate home amongst our goods in the store, with our recently expanded women's division really getting on board with the brand.

This first Fred Perry Spring 2012 arrival offers our Still Life ladies a selection of lightweight, cashmere-blend cardigans, drapey striped tees and slouchy v-neck sweaters. Our men's offering is fuller with classic Foxx and Byron footwear options returning once again, basic sporty tees, cardigan or pullover knitwear staples and madras & plaid spring shirting.

Iconic, legendary and authentically British. Fred Perry represents both a sporty, street wear casual customer as well as a proper, tailored and fashion-concious individual. Whether For Him or For Her, Still Life has been the home of classic, iconic Fred Perry styles for years. Immediately recognizable by their Laurel Wreath branding, attention to detail (and functionality) and nearly unmatched quality standards, Fred Perry Spring 2012 are available now at both Still Life For Him & For Her.

Gina Carney, the founder of RGB Nail Polish, says that she’s not trying to find today’s hot hues, but rather to put out tiny seasonal collections of colors she thinks will be classics five years hence. Judging by our complete sell through of her seasonal collections and our growing demand for her core collections, she'll have plenty of work to do for years to come.

Dedicated solely to nail colour and care, RGB is a product line that sees nail colour as an extension of one's wardrobe; using colour as an accessory. With a core collection of ten iconic colours with a modern edge, each shade is RGB's sharp take on a classic tone with a straightforward name to match. Offering exciting new colours seasonally, the chip-resistant and high shine formula is free of harmful chemicals (there is no formaldehyde, toluene, or dbp in any RGB colours) and all RGB products are cruelty free, and made in the USA.

Spring 2012 arrivals from RGB include the incredible popular core collection of shades (including smash hits Oxblood, Toast, Minty, Camel, Vert & Seal) as well as three new seasonal shades: RGB Fade is a soft, sunny faded ecru. RGB Dew is an opaque, pale green. And RGB Vellum is a perfectly muted, buttery yellow. A full spectrum of RGB Nail Polish shades to take our ladies into spring is now available at Still Life For Her.

A serious breath of fresh spring air hit Still Life For Him & For Her this week with the arrival of casual California tees, hats, shirting and shorts from Brixton. Always offering stellar seasonal collections, Brixton introduces our Still Life customer to quality, on-trend garments in perfect fits for a very approachable price. Their online presence is solid with crystal clear product shots to the right and expertly styled lookbook shots sprinkled throughout. Styles from our first Spring 2012 Brixton delivery are currently available at Still Life For Him & For Her.

Inspired by music, culture, and the people who surround them, Brixton is the collaboration of three friends who wanted to convey their lifestyle through unique products. Created in 2004, the timeless and clean design of the Brixton collection is hard to duplicate and comes in a variety of styles that appeal to the individual in a modern yet traditional way. Each piece is constructed with the commitment to bringing the customer a high quality and limited product that they’ll want to hold onto forever.

Since 2007, the Danish design duo behind Shoe The Bear has been rewarded again and again for their unique approach to fashionable footwear. Spring 2012 sees the footwear brand debut in Victoria at Still Life For Her, with a collection inspired by the dusty, sandy landscapes of the adventurous Scottish explorer Dr. Livingstone with high & low leather booties in on-trend leopard, rich browns and sleek, classic blacks.

Behind Shoe The Bear are Thomas Frederiksen and Jakob Fuglsang; the brand was handpicked to represent Danish Design at 2008 Tokyo Fashion Week, leading to intensive media exposure and well-earned recognition in the Japanese market.

Shoe The Bear are renowned for their balance between feminine fashion and masculine trends, and designing fashion footwear with serious international appeal. Full of creativity and a constant energy that ensures Shoe The Bear never stands still, these shoes keep you moving down the red carpet on the road to success.

Over the years, Filson's philosophy has never changed: Make sure it's the absolute best. Clinton Filson spent a lot of time talking to his customers and refining his designs to their specifications. So it's not surprising that the items that worked then still work today, over 100 years since he started the company. Comfort, protection and durability never go out of style.

Filson has long been one of our favourite most versatile, rugged, and sought-after brands at Still Life. We've restocked in some of this winter's seasonal accessories ranging from Tin Cloth tote bags, duffle bags and umbrellas to heavy duty canvas and leather ruck sacks and briefcases, and classic Filson leather-bound flasks and Mackinaw Wool vests. Some of these items seriously flew off our shelves this past autumn/winter, so if you're feeling the press of the winter cold, swing by either shop and pick up some rugged Filson accessories.

Filson goods are still made and guaranteed in Seattle - available to take you through the winter at both Still Life For Him & For Her.
