New Year, New Horizons

With 2009 upon us, change is palpable. This new year brings a fervor and excitement that has been dormant for sometime now, with a new administration coming in with progressive ideas. While we strive for national improvement in the coming months, we should also take the time to set some goals for self-improvement. We should look to maintain our bodies, both physically and mentally. Thus, our post-holiday wish list: Experiencing the world of cultures around us. Through books, through travel, through fashion, through food. Reading for pleasure, not just work. Partaking in forthcoming change by being more eco-conscious and civically engaged. And maybe, finally, a manageable exercise routine. Challenging our bodies in a healthy manner that actually may be fun as well.


Although the future is uncertain yet, the Shubrah line is drawing from the spirit of resiliency and hope in the Spring/Summer 2009 collection, which is currently underway. The collection will reflect the revitalizing spring season ahead of us, only a few months away. In the meantime, the Fall 08 collection still offers winter fashion essentials, now at 30% off of everything on the website.




In addition to the upcoming Spring line, Shubrah couture will debut in the new year with a custom bridal collection. These pieces incorporate Indian fabrics, western silhouettes, and striking color. With the wedding approaching in a few months, the designer is hard at work blending original bridal fashion with the personalities of the bride and bridesmaids themselves.
