- Self-taught designer, and closet country music fan, Suzanne Kopulos is the
brains behind Boujie Baby Couture, a luxe line of bags expertly suited for
the woman who isn¹t willing to sacrifice style just because shes a mom. She
debuted her brand in 2006 with a collection of couture diaper bags called
"Chic Collection" and now just a mere three years later Boujie Baby Couture
also includes the "Street Chic Collection" and the "Prima Collection." With
accolades from CS, Cool Mom Picks, Celebrity Baby Blog, and a roster of Tinseltown devotees, Kopulos is at the forefront of the
stylish-mom movement. Of course, a celebrated handbag designer has to be
on-the-go at all times; thankfully Kopulos has a close relationship with
coffee to get her through those sluggish days.

Suzanne's favorites...
Scent:
BCBG Metro, it’s discontinued & I’m devastated. Daywear: Rendez-Vous Oil by Fragnoard. For special events and date nights I wear Nanadebary.
Eye cream:
Don’t have a regimen, but after a great night out, I use Bliss Baggage Handler to camouflage the damage. Sort of like after Halloween night at Empire Liquors when I let loose with the fam. Me, a bumble bee, and my brother…the mad Swedish Chef with hysterical rubber chicken!
Mascara:
Cover Girl Lash Exact
Concealer:
Amazing Cosmetics concealer is hands down my life saver. It covers up any imperfection and I cannot live without it.
Moisturizer:
Dove SPF 15. I have sensitive skin and this is one of the only moisturizers that doesn’t make me break out!

I have a few that I love. My favorite this summer is David Gate Pink Grapefruit Moisturizing Body Glow. It made my tan look even better and sparkled in the sun!

CANNOT live without...
Chanel Ombre Essentielle shadows. I became obsessed when I bought a Rocker look for my best friend’s wedding. I think the high hair said it all, but the shadow made the look!

Ombre Unique in Tabou that creates the perfect smokey eye for blue-eyed gals!
