On this day, 90 years ago, my inspiration was born. My grandmother Magnolia, queen of all things classy, endured the Great Depression, battled segregation in the Southern US, lost her young husband in World War II, and triumphed over other tragedies. Every day of these past 90 years, she has spread love and warmth to all… and through it all, she continues to be one of the most stylish, fashionable, respected, and beloved women in her community. Happy birthday, Grandmommy!
To commemorate this milestone, here’s a snapshot of life 90 years ago: Grandmommy has taught us all that you don’t have to look far for inspiration. Sometimes the most incredible people are those that are closest to you. ❤
