South Carolina Voyager Interview for downtown Oakville Boutique Store

June 16, 2022

JUNE 16, 2022 Exploring Life & Business with Noriko Oyama of nicolehasit Click here for online link Today we’d like to introduce you to Noriko Oyama. Hi Noriko, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstories.Born in Toronto and raised in Mississauga, I always had a keen eye for fashion and design. I’m a passionate, focused and extremely determined individual.  I am currently the Vice President of Business Development and Strategy at a software company, but I wanted to pursue my passion in Fashion. I launched nicolehasit in 2017 offering edgy, sophisticated and affordable fashions, catering to busy women looking for unique pieces. Throughout my career I was a single mother, traveling around the world on business. From packing school lunches, driving my daughter to ballet, piano, soccer and other extracurricular activities, I didn’t have the time or energy to go to the mall to find business wear, casual loungewear to formal wear. When I would travel abroad, I would find some time to shop and noticed that the European Styles were a bit more edgier and cut better than at home.

Spotlight on Canadian eCommerce Fashion Brand nicolehasit in downtown Oakville

Spotlight on Canadian eCommerce Fashion Brand nicolehasit in downtown Oakville

November 01, 2018

I recently had the pleasure of catching up with Noriko Oyama (above right), owner of nicolehasit, an online boutique for today’s fashionable woman.

Launched in 2017, nicolehasit is the online destination for women in search of style, comfort and affordable luxury.  Based on her own experience as a single professional mother, Noriko created the company to cater to women who have little time and appreciate having a one-stop-shop for a collection that includes basic wardrobe staples such as leggings and lounge wear as well as sexy edgy offerings that can be paired with high end designer pieces.

Having experienced post-pregnancy changes to her body, she sources pieces that are slightly tailored so as to conceal those areas of the body that a woman may want to minimize while still making her look shapely. The philosophy behind the brand is that all women should feel good about themselves, no matter what their shape. Through her online videos and social media posts, Noriko shares her adventures, such as taking a kick-boxing class, to demonstrate that one doesn’t have to be perfect, to have fun! It's all about balance and being able to laugh at yourself once in a while.

This lovable lady also has a beautiful daughter Jackie, a Toronto based model and student. When I first met them, I thought that they were sisters…the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree as they say. Jackie can be seen on the nicolehasit website modelling some of the gorgeous items. She also graces many a runway in Toronto, including the recent Toronto Fashion Week (TFW) and models internationally. Below are some behind-the-scenes shots of Jackie, and fellow model Karly, preparing for a photoshoot for the new nicolehasit collection.
