Hi, I'm Natalie Dusome, Founder and CEO of Poppy & Peonies, a fun and energetic brand that believes styles and function should co-exist. We're passionate about creating practical pieces that help make life a little easier and lighten the load, literally.

Building Poppy & Peonies has been a wild adventure. The journey began when my daughter Poppy was born and my accessories no longer worked with my new life as a mom, I needed bags with pockets and organization that looked cool and had functionality. I couldn't find it, so I decided to create it, and in 2015 Poppy & Peonies was born.

We've come a long way in five years from filling orders in my basement to appearing on Dragons' Den, and now, expanding into new product categories and collaborating with some exciting influencers and brands. I'd be lying if I said it's been nothing but smooth sailing, but thanks to our incredible community, we've never felt more loved and supported!

We believe in our responsibility to care for our environment and we are passionate about preserving the health and welfare of our planet, and the animals that live on it. All of our bags are made from high-quality vegan leather, and our entire product line is vegan, cruelty-free, and PETA-approved. We ship our products plastic-free and we use a combination of recycled, compostable, and biodegradable materials to mitigate shipping waste, and we are constantly looking for new ways to make our products and supply chain more sustainable to reduce our carbon footprint.
