There is something regal about old black and white photos. And of course, that day in time when everyone dressed up and looked fabulous no matter where they were or where they were going.

He reminds me a lot of Jeremy Irons in Granada series of Brideshead Revisited.

Too bad people don't dress this elegantly and stylish anymore. The world would be an even more beautiful place to look at.

Biarritz has not change at all !

Alexandra's grandparents were lovely.

I was standing right where they were in 2005… Biarritz hasn't changed TOO much, which is refreshing :)

very pretty!

I love the feeling of these photos…simple, relaxed and so stylish!

I like the photos. They look so peaceful to me.

Kind Regards

Simply stunning. Thank you A for sharing and S for setting up the opportunity for people to share. Again, stunning.

Yes, graceful and elegant are the words for these two.

so romantic i love these

What did they do for a living to get those physiques? We are doing something wrong today!

What strikes me about old, vintage photos is that people were so much slimmer then. But not anorexic-thin! They were no fast foods and no over-the-counter instant MSG-laden, oily foods so people ate much healthier. Sigh. To have those bodies naturally. :)

These are lovely. I love her point on the differences in their hair. :)

I'm really enjoying reading all the stories that come with these posts.

stunning couple! love the long limbs…very 20's/30's!

They both look so beautiful because their bodies are so slim and toned. The look very much alike, indeed "a couple".

I'm suspicious that the grandmother's "hair" in the first picture is a sculpted hat of some sort. It is far to regular to be wind-blown hair… and having that much wind it seems would have changed aspects of their disposition and other details in the photo.

They are very elegant. And very fit. Both of them have astounding legs !

Belle plages que celles de Bandol et Sanary-sur-Mer. Mis

They are so slender, as are many in your vintage pics. I wish that would come back into fashion in my country where 50% are overweight or obese according to the radio this week. (Australia)

That is what struck me also was how slender and healthy they look, you just don't see that as often these days. My honeymoon photos I was hiding behind a sarong. (10 lbs), but back then they ate much healthier and hence look much more trim and fit. Ah..the good old days.

Great elegant photos of them! The good life.

So elegant.

Lean, keen and sleek! Love your granpa! they sure look like a perfect match :)

Hey it is really cool pic and the man looks like Mr Bean .. lol

Aw, this was a really nice post. In thought I wish to put in writing like this moreover – taking time and precise effort to make an excellent article… however what can I say… I procrastinate alot and under no circumstances seem to get something done.

Incredibly elegant couple. Very fit. Extremely relaxed considering World War II was just around the corner. Perfectly matched couple. Scenery is breathtaking. Right time, right place. Great in black & white.
