Welcome to Par & Paddle

Meet the Founders

​

Par & Paddle was created by Nicole Craig and Christine Howell, two women who believe style should move as effortlessly as the lives we lead.

​

Christine, a former boutique owner with a seasoned eye for curation, brings years of fashion experience and a deep love for the game of golf. She understands how to balance tailored polish with relaxed elegance, selecting pieces that feel as at home on the green as they do at golden hour.

​

Nicole blends creativity, energy, and real-life versatility. A STEM teacher, entrepreneur, and mom, she finds her reset on the pickleball court and by the lake. She gravitates toward pieces that feel elevated yet easy, designed for women who juggle full days and still show up refined.

​

Together, they share a love for club gatherings and cocktail hour conversations, building Par & Paddle as more than a boutique. It is a lifestyle rooted in sport, sophistication, and community. From course to court, waterside to evening socials, every collection is curated for women who carry confidence into every setting.
