~ About Us & the Making of Novae Clothing!

It never once crossed my mind that we {my husband,Tom & I, Nickelle} would own a clothing store on line.  Never.

A little History, we all have one...
I started out as a Modbe Fashion Consultant. You may be asking yourself, what the heck is that? Well, it was a Clothing company that started in LA & went to Utah & they started out as Home Based Parties. I started in 2005 {when they started} - 2009 {when they went out of business...} it was a sad day.

I Learned so so much!
Modbe Clothing Designed & selected so many different materials for their many products through out the years. I payed attention & Listened to what Women liked on their bodies {different body types} & what they didn't. I learned what materials lasted a long time. {if taken care of properly}
I don't consider myself an "Expert on Fashion & Clothing" but I did do A LOT of parties with A LOT of Women & I Listened! {that was Important & Still Is!}

What takes me the longest while shopping is Finding the Products that I consider Modest. {it's like looking for a needle in a haystack sometimes!} They need to meet my Beliefs & Standards that I have for myself. They have to be modest enough for me  to wear in front of my kids too.

I get most of my work done late at night/early morning... & then I get up & raise 4 kids everyday!
My Husband is AWESOME! He just recently {fall of '10} started going to school FULL TIME! He lost his 2 jobs on the same day within 2 hrs. of each other. {CraZy, I Know} He was already going to school on top of the 2 jobs...+ he goes to school during the Summer! He/We  Eat & Breathe School!

It has been a Blessing! {the job losses & going to school}

~ Novae Clothing was born in 2010 {well, the idea anyway} shortly after those losses....it has been a Fun Stressful Journey so far!
We have Appreciated ALL the Support & Advice that we have received along the way... TO BE CONTINUED....

  2. Thanks for sharing!
    I am really excited about finding a *modest* clothing company! It is so hard for me to find things that are modest and cute-especially as a new mother and wife!

  4. I just found your website on Pinterest. Love it so far! Only question is I am tall and would love a sizing chart. For example how your sizes fit, i.e. L is a size 8 or 10? Or how tall the model is wearing the clothes. (Banana Republic has a great online sizing chart, maybe look there for an idea to copy) Just something to compare it to for future purchases. I did purchase a dress and hope it fits. Can't wait for it to arrive. Thanks for the modest clothing company, I am sure you will be blessed for your hard work and efforts.
