#FashionTrends About Nicole In the summer of 1993, a 13 year old girl Alicia Nicole Stillwell, sat on the wooden pew of a small Baptist Church in Paluxy, a Texas town with a population less than 100, sketching out clothing to wear to horse shows and rodeos. Creativity ran wild in this young girl’s mind with dreams of accomplishing big equestrian goals while wearing the most current handmade outfits, custom designed by she and her mother. At age 15, Nicole developed a friendship with Casey Deary that would eventually turn into the incredible loving bond of marriage on May 25, 2002. The small beginnings for this young couple that lived in Robbie Robertson’s camping trailer on the driveway of that piece of ground in Weatherford, would develop faith, character, patience, integrity and gratitude for each blessing God would send their way.
On the Way to Style CC Way designs are inspired by a testimony, a story of faith and a western way of life.

Capturing championships soon took Casey Deary across the United States and other countries to teach clinics, compete in more events and speak to the people. Never-ending work behind the scenes, traveling to horse events, serving others, helping horses, cheering for Casey and raising children continuously transforms Nicole and adds fuel to the fires for this visionary business woman. Years of blessings mixed with humble necessary sufferings have built Nicole Deary and CC Way. Through these incredible life experiences, Nicole’s mind set and creativity released new ideas for inspirational ladies clothing and began the new CC Way business. Casey listened, loved, approved and disapproved hundreds of Nicole’s daily assortment of ideas. Numerous nights in the winter and spring of 2018 Nicole woke up and journaled different visions and ideas that God was putting into her mind about CC Way, the Christian Cowgirl way of life.
