Priceless Plus A Dollar Ninety-Nine
November 28, 2008 | Filed Under Uncategorized
I love vintage. Love, love, love it. If I could stock my life with vintage everything I would. One of my favorite vintage items is the suitcase. I found some amazing suitcases at a garage sale a couple of weekends ago; I discovered mold on the inside, so the two gorgeous and perfectly vintage suitcases had to continue to sit sadly on the cold driveway. I was bummed because both suitcases were lovely and so me.
Today Eve and I were out running a couple of errands, we stopped by the Goodwill to peruse the wares, looking for some glass jars to hold my homemade yogurt (V-Blog tutorial to come!). Unfortunately we found nada. I did however find a green suitcase for a dollar ninety-nine. Score!
It’s perfect for a beautiful five year old to sit on, while eating an apple, of course.
And to carry around. This was simply practice for when we travel home at Christmas time, you know.
It is also the perfect seat to sit on and contemplate the meaning of life.
Yay for bright green vintage suitcases! And beautiful five year olds.
Yes, defintely the beautiful five year olds.

Yay!!! Thank you for Eve! I’ve been missing her! and she looked dashing, I might add, sitting on her suitcase
My parents had 2 suitcases that looked just like that when I was growing up! In fact, I remember clearly closing our cat up in one of them while my Mom was in the shower one moring and then realizing we had no idea how to get him out. (I was maybe 5 or 6 years old and couldn’t figure out the “clips” to open it back up!) Poor Ralphie- that cat endued so much, lol.
Great pictures as usual! Eve looks beautiful with that bow in her hair.
Love the pictures!
Thanks for sharing…
Eve looks so beautiful, I love her dress!
I love these pictures – I was hoping for some new ones of Eve. I miss her so much!!
Those photos were amazing!
They should be entered in a contest for sure.
You really have an eye for photography Andrea.
I was wondering what happened to Eve. She has grown so much and her beautiful long hair! Beautiful pictures. She looks so cold though. Was it a cold day? The posture of her hands said cold. The last picture she looks just like you.
My mom tried to give me some old luggage just last week. No thanks! If you lived close I would have called you to come pick it up.
i literally exclaimed out loud how CUTE when i saw this post! love the suitcase! and i love the one where eve is dragging it behind her, so adorable!
Great pictures! She looks like she’s had a lot of practice posing for you.
LOL, it looks like she’s hitch-hiking!
What a bargain. Eve is just gorgeous. As is your picture capturing talent.

Great photos, I’m loving them. She is such a pretty little girl, it would be impossible not to have a hundred great shots of her!
MAN! I love these photos!

Love the suitcases. My cousin had two she propped on their sides and used as a nightstand in one of her kid’s bedrooms. She even found a lamp that would sit on it.
Aww, precious!! She is so precious.
PS- my December is something crazy and I wish I were as “bring it on” about it as you are!! I need an attitude adjustment.
Catching up….LOVE THE BOW. The suitcase is great but the girl on top is who I’ve been itching to see. Cute pictures, Andrea.
what a precious moment to share
