About Me

My name is Farheen Valliani, founder of Farh from Ordinary! I’m a Research and Development Scientist by day and a blogger by mid-afternoon. Welcome to my life behind the lab coat! I was born in Pakistan, but raised in Chicago since the age of ONE! I’ve never lived anywhere else other than Chicago, and I love calling this Windy City my home. I am 3o years old and married to my best friend. 

Farh from Ordinary started as a hobby and became a reality in 2013. It all started with the occasional #OOTD, and now it’s a full blown fashion and lifestyle blog!

Ever since I was young, I would constantly flip through fashion magazines and just dream about being at NYFW. When my friends and family would ask me for fashion advice, I’d jump at the opportunity.

I am classic, but edgy; I’d say my style is not so ordinary 😉. I’ve had the opportunity to meet and work with so many great people along the way, and I look forward to meeting many more. The past few years have easily been the best years of my life, and I am eager to see what the coming years have in store for me.
