Hey there, mamas!
Welcome to the first of many conversations here on the Novel Mom blog! I’m beyond excited to introduce you to what this community is all about, and today, we’re diving into the heart of it all and the inspiration for our signature collection, Mom Mode.
So, what is Mom Mode? It’s a celebration of everything that comes with motherhood—the ups, the downs, and the beautiful chaos in between. As moms, we juggle so much every day, from school runs to late-night snuggles, managing the house, our jobs, our dreams—while still trying to carve out a bit of “me” time (if we’re lucky). I know this journey can be overwhelming, but it’s also incredible. That’s why I created the Mom Mode collection—to reflect all those moments, both messy and magical, that make being a mom so unique.
The Story Behind the Collection
When I launched Novel Mom back in 2019, my goal was simple: to create a space where moms feel seen and celebrated for all they do. Mom Mode is my way of sharing that journey with you. These aren’t just tees—they’re daily reminders that being a mom is about owning your moments, no matter how chaotic or calm and it’s very rarely the latter. It’s about embracing every part of the experience with confidence, humor, and a little bit of style!
Prints that Speak to Our Lives
Let’s be real—every mom has those moments that deserve their own catchphrase. That’s exactly what the Mom Mode collection is all about. Each piece in this collection comes with a print that hits right where we live as moms. Whether you’re owning your day as the “Chaos Coordinator” or bringing a little humor to the tough moments with “Thou Shall Not Try Me – Mom 24:7”, these designs get it. And we all know, “Ain’t No Hood Like Motherhood”—because seriously, motherhood is the craziest, most rewarding hood there is. From juggling the chaos to cherishing those little moments, these tees remind us that no matter how wild things get, we’re rocking it.
A Few of My Personal Favorites:
- “Ain’t No Hood Like Motherhood” – Let’s be real, motherhood is the wildest, most rewarding hood there is. No matter how tough it gets, we wouldn’t trade it for anything.
- “Chaos Coordinator” – Every mom deserves to wear this title proudly. We juggle it all—whether it’s school drop-offs, meal prep, or just keeping life together. It’s chaotic, but it’s ours.
- “Cool Moms Never Sleep” – This one’s a personal favorite! Because between late-night feedings and early-mornings for swimming, soccer or dance, sleep is optional—but being a cool mom is non-negotiable.
- “Give Me a Double Shot of Whatever My Kids Are On” – Honestly, don’t we all need that magical energy boost just to keep up with these kids?
- “Motherhood: The Perfect Mix of Chaos and Love” – No matter how wild things get, love is always at the core of it all. Motherhood really is the perfect balance of chaos and love.
Why the Novel Mom Community Matters
At Novel Mom, it’s not just about styling fun, comfy tees (though they’re pretty amazing!). It’s about building a community where we can come together, laugh, encourage one another, and celebrate this wild ride called motherhood. I want every mom to feel like she has a space where she belongs, where she’s understood, and where her journey is recognized.
I’m right there with all of you in this community—juggling the demands of mom life with the desire to stay comfortable and confident. And that’s why every tee in this collection is designed with you in mind. Soft fabrics, relatable prints, and a whole lot of love because, mamas, you deserve to feel good inside and out.
Always Available, Always Mom Mode
The best part? Mom Mode is here to stay. This collection will always be available on the website, and these signature prints will always be a part of our store. Whether you’re stocking up on new tees or looking for a fun gift for a fellow mama, you’ll always find something here that speaks to your life and style.
I hope the Mom Mode collection brings a smile to your face, a laugh to your day, and a reminder that you’re doing an amazing job—because let’s face it, being a mom is no small feat!
Here’s to embracing the chaos, finding the joy, and rocking Mom Mode every single day.
Much love,
