What it’s really like to be a blogger!
Recently, someone said to me, “I’m amazed by all the photography on your website – that must take forever – all your gorgeous makeup, great lighting, looking perfect, changing outfits, holy crap!” Well, that was SO NICE!!!
The truth is, there are a few dedicated and extremely talented people behind the scenes helping me build this little business. Quite honestly, there would be no So Susie without the writing and editing by my friend Ter, and the stunningly beautiful photography by Carrie Minns. And of course, the incredible website design thanks to Aaron and the Smash Creative team. Oh and one last side note … Carrie does not follow me around – she has way better things to do 
We get a lot of photos from one shoot every other month or so! So there you have it, a little back story on what goes into the making of So Susie.
Now to the good stuff! It has been a busy few weeks around here, so in case you missed something, here are some of our favorite posts!
#1 Pants so comfy, you’ll wear them 24/7
Black jacket | sunnies | Cashmere sweater | Joggers | sneakers
If you haven’t bought these yet, I’m going to kindly suggest you do, because I’m 99.9% sure you’ll love them. The other day someone said, “I already have workout pants.” That’s great, but that’s not what these are for! Yes, they’re made from performance fabric, and yes they are sold in the active department. And likely the Vuori brand would tell me I’m wrong, you probably can work out in them These joggers are great because you can style them several ways and look like a cool girl out and about running errands or hanging with friends.

#2 Hands down the best items of 2019
I try REALLY, REALLY hard to make careful, thoughtful purchases. Since I’m in the business, and everyday there’s something new, it’s very important to be selective. It’s called editing, and it’s quite difficult at times! This is the “downside of being a personal stylist” (I wrote about it here). But it’s worth it, and I’m sharing with you the best purchases of 2019 that I know you’ll love as well. I’m constantly telling all of you to buy this and buy that, and so when I say “trust me” or “this is so good,” I really mean it! My promise on this blogging journey is to always be genuine and authentic. See the best purchases of 2019 here!
