Little suitcase

Hello, I'm Toni from little suitcase.

I am so happy to be one of the guests posting on Loveology while Sifra is away. I do miss her. Loveology is one of my favourite blogs.

When I was a girl I loved Barbie.
I kept my Barbies in a little suitcase and I had Barbie clothes on the bottom and all my Barbie's would lie on top. I would open my suitcase nearly every day, put Barbie in a new outfit and brush their hair and put them away again. I loved my suitcase. It would be under my bed, the keeper of my favourite possessions.

Now I gather up all the things I see that inspire me and place them in my suitcase. I look forward to sharing with you all the lovely things I find, until beautiful Sifra returns.

For now, here are some beautiful vintage suitcases. They make me so happy.

I used to have a suitcase growing up that was like the green flowered one.

Oh how lovely. I've been coveting my father's old suitcase for a while and I've finally been gifted it! When I was little my barbies clothes were kept in a tool box, the kind that opened out with its own compartments.... barbies themselves were kept in the little pink suitcase designed for ballet uniform!

Great collection of photos, I would so use one if my arms didn't get sore. Nowadays suitcases with the wheels (or even backpacks) work much better for me for travelling.

Vintage suitcase make me smile, too. Something to do with the secrets they hold... maybe... maybe not.

Aaah a vintage suitcase and teacups - a perfect combination for an Agatha Christie novel.
