BEIJO BAGS: Susan Handley first started designing handbags when she was ten years old. At that time, the ideas remained strictly in her imagination. Today, they’ve grown up to become a very real part of her adult life. As the founder and sole designer of Beijo, Susan is not only watching her own dream come true, but is also the creative force behind a growing success story for women all across the country. It was her young son Kyle, in fact, who provided the name for his mom's company. "Beijo", which means "kiss" in Portuguese, was Kyle's second spoken word, one that the toddler often repeated when asking for a "beijo, Mama, beijo."
