#tbt Spring Break: Fripp Island, SC #MBsociallydriven

SPONSORED/ UNPAID 

My mom takes an ultimate Spring Break -- every January, she leaves the "Lake Effect" Snow Belt of central upstate NY and "snowbirds" on Fripp Island, South Carolina until Easter-time.

I've had the pleasure of visiting Fripp a couple of times. Mom has a villa with beautiful wide sandy beach almost directly out her back door. Oh how I yearn to live with a view of the ocean!

If I had the time and energy, I'd add the time-lapse from this view. Maybe later...

Transport me here NOW!

52 Pick-me-up: 50s

No internet still, so composing this on my phone. Bear with me re glitches. 

McDonald's wifi + fries to the rescue!

My mom and dad in the fifties:

Cheers!
Fit and flair dress, white summer suit, and champagne. 

Share your 50's looks!

52 Pick-me-up: Wear Something of Your Mom's

PURCHASED/ BORROWED/ 

Greetings from central upstate NY still.
I'm happy to report that the sun finally made an appearance, so I'm not yet growing moss.

May 11 is Mother's Day here in the States, which is why I created this week's challenge to wear something that was/is your mom's. Very conveniently, I'm currently visiting mine, so I was able to rummage around in her upstairs closets, where she stores things that she no longer wears.
Look what I found!

And this:

Handsewn, probably by my mom

Behind my head are two paintings by my Great Grandfather, Charles M. Frost

He was a doctor and painted as a hobby.
I was very lucky to grow up surrounded by original art.
I'm sure it influenced me!

What do you have that was or is your mom's?
Link and tell!
