i opened o'suzannah nearly 25 years ago come march 1, 2021. over these years with the support and encouragement of so many staff, friends and customers i've managed to put down "loose roots" in 7 locations here in my hometown of charlottesville - at one point i even had 3 storefronts . . . and then 2 and then 1 and now 2 again! can you tell i crave change and freshness?!

i also aspire to carefully curate my shops by choosing things and artisans i love and admire and then thoughtfully - sometimes painstakingly - merchandising all of these goodies by color throughout the shop. i think because i prefer the shops stuffed to the gills i decided early on that merchandising all of this abundant loveliness with care was one way for the shop to flow and tell a story.

so glad to welcome you into my shops - either in person or online! xoxo.
