MONDAY SERIES: Discovering New Businesses & Women Entrepreneurs

15:41 Blogs by FA 48 Comments


Few weeks ago when I was having my evening tea (well, just a sip from my husband's tea-cup), the idea struck my mind. The idea of promoting the talented women! The women who because of ten thousand reasons cannot go out and work or those who cannot have a formal business set-up because of another hundred thousand reasons. 


"The Monday Series: Discovering New Businesses & Women Entrepreneurs," is therefore dedicated to the extremely talented women who have everything to be THE women entrepreneurs but are tied with lots of household responsibilities. 


This is the second post of the series and I have chosen 3 women entrepreneurs from London, United Kingdom. The idea is to promote their businesses and create brand awareness of their products brands. (A small CSR activity and a gift to them by BLOGS BY FA). So, the first one is ...


Anni Arain Hair & Make-up Artist

Anni is a qualified make up artist and hair stylist in London. She has been trained by the renowned Lubna Rafiq Academy and is LRA certified. She specialises in all styles of make-up whether it is bridal, party, registry or prom. 

When asked about her mission statement, Anni said: "My aim is to enhance your own beauty with the LRA touch. I think every girl is beautiful but sometimes you just want to be glamorised and enhance your natural beauty. I listen to my clients and work with them to achieve the look they desire."

I was just going through her work and I really liked it. Definitely worth trying, you London ladies!   



Humy's Fashion

Humy's Fashion is UK based and was launched in 2014 to sell Indian wedding and party designer clothing for both men and women. They also provide custom order services and are launching lots of designs for customers to choose from and order for the desired occasion.

If you are looking for traditional wear, make sure to check out their page. I always dress up in traditional clothes on special occasions and their dresses seem to be reasonably priced. 

Ethnic Trends

Based in London, Ethnic Trends was launched in 2011 and they sell the following. 

  - Indian Fashion Fabrics & Designer Women's Suits
  - Jewellery and Accessories
  - Beautiful hand painted henna candles


When asked about the inception of the brand, the owner said, "I have always had some fondness for bangles and therefore, I keep experimenting with different colours, styles and mix and match combinations. At every occasion my matching bangles have been lovingly worn, earning me compliments galore along with enquiries as to where they could get similar bangle sets. Thus, the idea of Ethnic Trends was born and what we started, was an online experiment by my husband and I. Gradually, we have built up a sizeable collection of eye-catching, unique, ethnic as well as glamorous Indian fashion designer jewellery along with the latest couture collection to suit every occasion and mood."

Further, she added, "Our wide rage of imitation bangles and Indian women's wear will bring to you truly Indian enchanting beauty in all its splendour, making you the centre of attention and winning you compliments wherever you go!"

  22. What a lovely idea to help promote female entrepreneurs. As an entrepreneur myself I can totally relate to the first part of your post. I do have so many things to do in my roles as mother, wife, daughter etc. It can be hard to fit the business in! I have developed a live of jewellery lately so will be checking out the ethnic jewellery.
