Lady Baltimore Suitcase

Suitcase. Travel. Jet-setting. Style. Class. Elegance. Independence. Freedom. Excitement. Expectation. Potential. Adventure. Ginger Rogers starring as Fred Astaire's damsel in distress at the train station, crying "Porter! Oh porter!"

I found this piece of Lady Baltimore luggage at an antique store a few years ago, and I got it out of my closet today to pack my things for a small trip up north with some family. Its white color, rounded edges, and silky purple interior demand a pillbox hat and a 1940s pencil skirt. Travel in style, and Fred Astaire will follow. (It worked for Ginger.)
