People in the Facebook group 'I am Waterford' have been taking a trip down memory lane in recent days.
Sharing photos of women "in the old days," people in the group have been reminiscing about simpler times and "beautiful style."
The photos are of people from Ballytruckle in Co. Waterford.
They came from two separate posts in the group, and some photos were posted as comments.
Many people commented on the beauty of those in the pictures, while others noted the style of the time.

"People were so proud of their appearance back then. Clothes were beautifully tailored," one person commented.
It's estimated that some of the photos date back to the 1950s, with no exact timeframe given.
The group 'I am Waterford' is a place that connects people from the Déise, regardless of where they are in the world.
It is used as a "way of expressing our pride. It's about our identity. It's more than where we’re from or where we live, it’s who we are," according to the 'About' section of the page.
Members of the group regularly share old photos of loved ones, while others try to name those in the photos shared.
