20+ Old Photos of Grandmas Whose Youth and Beauty Take Our Breath Away
4 years ago
Back in the day, our grandmothers didn’t have a wide array of choices when it came to clothes and makeup, they didn’t use Photoshop and photo filters, they didn’t visit the spa, and they definitely didn’t get beauty injections like modern celebrities. But they were still beautiful enough to take our breath away.
This collection from Bright Side is so inspiring that it may make you take a look at some old photos of your grandmothers back from when they were young.
1. “My grandmother’s wedding day in 1945 — she was 18.”
2. “My beautiful grandmother turned 99 years old on Sunday.”
3. “My great grandma posing next to a waterfall in the 1960s”

5. “My grandma 47 years ago”
6. “My gorgeous grandma in the ’50s looking very sophisticated”
7. “My grandmother in the late ’50s and early ’60s. This was around the time she went on a date with George Carlin while he was a DJ out of Shreveport.”
