Television star, zookeeper, and crocodile hunter: you are probably familiar with Steve Irwin’s work. His amazing charisma and interest in wildlife conservation are very popular because of his show that was broadcast in over 130 different countries. But this TV personality had so many amazing features that there are probably way more facts you still don’t know about him.
That’s why Bright Side thinks he deserves an article dedicated to his most fascinating attributes. Read along on this list and join the adventure that is Steve Irwin’s life.
1. He got a snake on his sixth birthday.
The python that Steve Irwin’s parents got him as a gift was 11 ft long, and he loved it. It’s no wonder that at the age of 9 his father was already teaching him how to wrestle crocodiles.
2. He once fed a crocodile with one hand while he nursed his son with the other.
This moment of multitasking led to some controversy. In one hand, he had a chicken carcass, ready for a crocodile. In the other, he had Bob, his one-month-old son. He went on the TODAY Show and apologized for scaring people, but promised that his son was never in danger. It was just a way of showing how he always knew how to balance his adventurous life, with his love for his family.
3. He had one fear: parrots.
Despite all his courageous deeds, these birds still got on his nerves. But although he admitted feeling uncomfortable around them (especially because of all of the biting), he promised he was always trying to learn more and more to develop a better relationship with them.
4. He bought land to save more animals.
The large pieces of land Steve acquired were in Australia, the USA, and even on some islands in the Pacific Ocean to fulfill his goals of wildlife conservation and save the fauna from those places.
5. He grew up around a zoo.
Living among animals has been a reality to him since an early age, because his parents owned a piece of land with a reptile park. When Steve got older, he became the owner and expanded so much that today that same place is known all around the world as the Australian Zoo.
6. He once saved a life during his show.
*(not the actual photo of the scuba diver)
In the middle of shooting an episode, Steve found out that 2 scuba divers were missing in the same region where they were filming. He dropped everything to go look for them and was able to save one: Scott Jones, who was lying on a rock. The diver is still thankful, to this day.
7. He never wore his wedding ring.
Since both Steve and his wife worked with wildlife, they decided that wearing wedding rings was not the best idea. The objects could easily get in the way and injure the animals around them.
8. He spent his honeymoon catching crocodiles.
The footage from Steve and his wife Terri’s wild adventure became the first episode of the series The Crocodile Hunter.
9. He named his first child after his favorite animal.
Steve’s first child, a girl, was named Bindi, in honor of one of his favorite crocodile. ‘Bindi’ also means “little girl” in some aboriginal dialects.
10. 2 animal species are named after him.
One of them is an odd-looking turtle he found while fishing with his dad. The creature belonged to a species that had never been discovered before. Because of that, the turtle was named “Irwin’s Turtle,” after him. As if that wasn’t not enough, there’s also a snail called “crikey steveirwini” in honor of his name and catchphrase.
11. The Australian government honored him with awards.
This happened several times. He received the Centenary Medal for his work on global conservation and Australian tourism, and was nominated for Queensland Australian of the Year.
12. His legacy of helping animals lives on because of his children.
Steve had a son and a daughter and both of them continued in his line of work. Robert, his son, works at the Australian zoo and Bindi, his daughter, travels around to many reserves across the world and designs clothes that are eco-friendly.

Our world can be pretty dangerous — it is hard to argue with his. But some things are not as bad as we think. For example, sharks, who have a reputation as bloody predators, are way less harmful than cows. And going to buy a hamburger is far more risky than a mountain expedition.
Bright Side has reviewed a bunch of statistical data and is going to tell you about things that are much safer than you thought. And we are doing this in order to dispel your fears and inspire you.
1. Sharks or cows?
Despite the bad reputation that the film Jaws created for sharks, they are not the most bloodthirsty animals on the planet. Cows are much more dangerous than sharks. The likelihood of getting injured by a cow is 20 times higher than by a shark.
2. Rollercoasters or golf?
Scientists believe that a love for rollercoasters and other extreme things depends on the biochemistry of the brain — people with high levels of dopamine, constantly want to do something dangerous. Even though rollercoasters are believed to be dangerous, statistically, it is more dangerous to play golf rather than taking a rollercoaster ride. Despite the reputation of being fairly safe, golfers often have serious sprains and herniated disks. Of course, nobody talks about this on TV.
3. Parachute or car?
According to statistics, driving a car is way more dangerous than jumping out of an airplane with a parachute. The data from the United States Parachute Association suggests that only one in 100,000 jumps leads to an accident. In other words, you would have to make 17 jumps per year to even come close to your chances of getting injured in a car crash.
4. Alligator or bath?
Statistics suggest that taking a bath is way more dangerous than swimming in a pond with alligators. It is all about our carelessness — people often take very hot baths when they are drunk. According to stats on alligator attacks, the number of people killed in their own bath is far larger.
5. Lightning or falling off the bed?
Who would have thought that falling off the bed was so dangerous? Over a span of 10 years (2004-2014), fewer people got hurt by a bolt of lightning, than by falling off their own beds. Bolts of lightning hurt about 250,000 people every year, but falling off the bed is much worse. Especially, for older people.
6. Elevator or stairs?
Fear of elevators can evolve into a real phobia. Well, it is a tight space and there are a lot of mechanisms. Stairs seem a lot safer and healthier. Or not? According to statistics, going up or down stairs is about 60 times more dangerous than taking the elevator.
7. Mountain climbing or obesity?
This point alone can help you choose a healthy lifestyle. According to statistics, mountain climbing is much safer than being overweight (and all its related illnesses). If you follow all the safety rules, climbing mountains is a lot safer than eating fast food and leading a sedentary lifestyle.
8. Plane or extension cord?
We’ll dispel another fear — the fear of flying. Experts call it aviophobia. However, according to statistics, flying is far safer than the regular extension cords that people use every day in their homes.
9. Lion or hippo?
It seems that the king of beasts might have a worthy competitor. According to statistics, lions are not as dangerous as those cute hippos. Despite their huge weight, these animals can run as fast as 19 mph, they are very aggressive, and they can wreck anything that is in their path.
10. Snowboard or furniture?
Snowboarding is one of the most dangerous sports, mostly because athletes don’t follow all the safety rules like they should and because they don’t use any protective equipment. However, even this extreme kind of sport is not as bad as... furniture, which manages to hurt way more people.
11. Meteorite or manhole?
According to statistics, the chances of dying from a meteorite are 1 in 10 million. However, on Earth, there are far more dangerous things than celestial bodies. For example, open manholes.
So, was this article able to diminish your fears?

Also, if the card was never used it can raise the price even higher.
7. Old school Nintendo games
Old school games are always valuable among collectors, and their value will only go up over time. The game “Stadium Events” by Bandai is believed to be extremely rare, since the company released a newer version and tried to remove the older one from the shelves.

9. Harry Potter copies credited to Joanne Rowling
The first edition of the Harry Potter book series is now wanted by many of its fans and collectors. In 1997 only 500 books were published. What makes it so special is the crediting of “Joanne Rowling,” instead of “J.K. Rowling” like in the later versions.

Lots of vintage and antique lovers want to own this machine for themselves. These large and weighty apparatuses can work as a piece of interior decor or an authentic tool for a writer.
11. Meat stones
Chinese collectors are in love with a particular type of a stone — jasper that looks like a piece of smoked meat. These stones even have their own museum in Lushan, China.

The age, style, color, and physical state of a dish play a significant role in the price.
13. Vintage advertising signs
Advertising signs have not lost their popularity, even today, since they are often used in many cafes and bars: the older and more vintage the sign, the better.

They are popular on selling platforms and get sold from around $20 up to $1,000, or even more.

Pets are a gift from the gods most of the time, but occasionally they become little pranksters who love to put your patience to the test. They reveal their dark side and start acting naughty. Eating your jam, ripping the curtains up, or destroying your laptop with a “smile” on their faces are just some examples of our beloved animals not being as cute as they seem.
We at Bright Side have collected some photos that show that our pet friends can be “smooth criminals” with no remorse. But they do it in such a funny way, that we can’t stop loving them!
1. “I ate all the jam and fell asleep.”
2. “The cat was mad we weren’t home to feed her dinner, and got back at us by ripping apart a pack of bagels and taking a tiny bite out of EACH ONE.”
3. “Spent a week on this puzzle...”
4. His satisfied little face says it all.
5. “But they’re delicious... Have you tried them?”
6. Mr. French-Fry-Thief in action
7. “He ripped up his new toy and looked at me for approval. I can’t say I agree with his decision, but I fully support him anyway.”
8. He pushed the TV off the stand and he seems so proud of himself.
9. “My little sister wanted to pet the chicken, but the chicken was not having any of it.”
10. “You said you wanted new curtains... You’re welcome!”
11. “He destroyed the patio and all the furniture on it, but he looks very proud of himself, so I’m not mad.”
12. This cat spilled all the dog treats and then acted like nothing happened.
13. “This squirrel stole my friend’s bagel...”
14. “Oh! What a lovely little garden! Be a shame if someone were to...*crush them all*.”
15. “I told you to let me sleep, but you didn’t listen!”
16. “This adorable little guy is eating my sandwich while standing on the piece of bread I gave him.”
17. “This is our cat Charlotte. She is not familiar with boundaries, and has exactly zero shame.”
18. “Get a kitten they said. It’ll be fun they said.”
19. “Making my son cry because she stole his lollipop. And the look in those eyes is pure evil.”
20. “Working from home will be easy, they said.”

A clothes iron is a much handier appliance than you might think. Not only can it make your clothes look great, but it can also repair dents on your wooden furniture, leaving the surface as good as new. And if you can’t scrape bubble gum off your clothes, an iron can also help you with this!
We at Bright Side love when people do something unconventional using ordinary things. So here are a few things you wouldn’t expect an iron to be useful for!
1. You can fix dents on wood.
To remove a dent from your wooden table or any other wooden piece of furniture, you’ll need an iron, a piece of cloth, and water. Spray some water on the dent, cover it with a damp piece of cloth, and iron it. Every minute or so, add more water on the dent, and apply the heat again. Repeat this until you see the dent has been removed.
2. You can remove candle wax.
If you’ve got candle wax stains on your clothes, your carpet, or any fabric, you can remove it with an iron. Simply place the area that has the stain between 2 towels and press it with a warm iron (make sure it’s on a low setting). The wax will stick to the towels, and you’ll be able to get rid of the stains on your clothes. The same trick can be used to remove candle wax from hard surfaces.

Put the area with the chewing gum on a piece of cardboard, so that the side with the gum touches the cardboard. You’ll then have to iron the opposite side of the fabric. The gum will become softer, and it`ll stick to the cardboard, making it easy to detach the rest of it from your clothes. Make sure the temperature is not too high, otherwise the gum will melt and it’ll be hard to remove.
4. You can cook food.
You can use an iron to prepare basically anything you would normally cook on a stove. Just put tinfoil on it, add some butter or oil — and you’ve got a frying pan! Another way to do it is to put food between 2 sheets of foil and then heat it up with an iron. You can even fry bacon that way! For that, you might also need a cutting board and a towel to make sure you don`t damage any surfaces and to remove the grease from the iron.
5. You can remove heat stains from wood.
If you put hot dishes or cups on a wooden table, heat stains might appear. To remove them, first place a towel over the stains. Then iron the area with the steam on.
6. You can remove furniture indentations from carpet.
If you decide to get rid of or move a piece of furniture, you might notice that it left an impression on the carpet. To remove it, take a damp towel and put it over the indentation. Then heat up the towel with a steam iron. From time to time, lift the towel up and fluff the carpet fibers. Repeat a few times until you see the desired results.
7. You can preserve flowers.
It usually takes a few weeks for flowers to become dry enough to preserve them in a book. With an iron, it’ll only take a few minutes. Put the flower between 2 pieces of paper and flatten it with something heavy. With the iron on a low setting, press it on the upper piece of paper for 15 seconds. Then let the paper cool off for 15 seconds and repeat the process until the flower is dry.
8. You can laminate your paperwork.
You don’t have to buy a laminating machine to laminate your documents. Just put a piece of paper between 2 laminate plastic sheets, place a piece of cloth on top, and iron it. Make sure the temperature is not too high and that there isn’t any water in the iron.

11 Countries That Changed Their Name and How Much It Cost Them Due to land divisions , wars , changes in government , independence , or simply to facilitate pronunciation abroad , some countries have decided to change their name .
In some cases , they did it many years ago , and we know these countries by their current name .
But others did it very recently , and we still find it challenging to call them by their new name .
The process of modifying a country ’ s name isn ’ t simple , much less economical @ @ @ @ @ @ @ parts of the world have dared to do it .
As a way to unify all the provinces that are part of the Netherlands , and also as a marketing move , the 2 regions that bear the name “ Holland ” will no longer be called South Holland and North Holland .
From January 2020 , they became the Netherlands , like the others .
This involves many other modifications , for example , editing the name of their soccer team .
Ancient Ceylon , modern-day Sri Lanka , changed its name @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they discovered it in 1505 .
It later became part of the British Empire and gained its independence in 1948 .
However , it was years later that the island ’ s government decided to make the change .
In 2011 , all references to Ceylon , from official bodies to companies that still carried the old name , were removed .
3 .
The Republic of Macedonia changed to the Republic of North Macedonia .
The former Republic of Macedonia changed its name to the Republic of North Macedonia in February 2019 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in name was to become a part of NATO , and also to distinguish itself from its neighbor , Greece , which has a region named Macedonia .

In April 2018 , the king of Swaziland , in Africa , issued a statement declaring that the country ’ s name would change to Eswatini .
The modification didn ’ t @ @ @ @ @ @ @ name they were already using .
Eswatini is just the translation of Swaziland into the local language , which means “ land of the Swazis.
” Besides , the old name was confusing , since many mistook it for Switzerland .
To celebrate the twentieth anniversary of its independence , the Republic of Alto Volta was renamed Burkina Faso , which , in the local language , means “ land of whole men.

In 1989 , the country ’ s leading military government was determined to change the name from Burma to Myanmar in an attempt to preserve the way it ’ s written in the local language : Myanma .

For this reason , some parts of the world still insist on referring to this Asian country as Burma .

In the local language , the name is pronounced Prathet Thai , which means “ the country of free people , ” and it pays tribute to the first settlers who arrived seeking freedom from China .

Sometime later , the names of cities and regions that were in German were also changed .

Another recent change was the one from Cape Verde , which took place in 2013 .
The country ’ s name is now the Republic of Cabo Verde , or simply Cabo Verde , which is what the Portuguese sailors who discovered the islands called them , in 1444 .

Everything that bears the country ’ s old name , like maps , flags , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it with the new one .
This , of course , takes time .
And then you have the citizens who are used to calling their country by a certain name and have to become familiar with writing it and saying it in another .
These changes don ’ t happen overnight , and although many will still wonder if they were even necessary at all , they will usually end up embracing them .

A look at why countries have changed their names will make you realize that it’s mostly due to land divisions, changes in government, independence, or simply to facilitate pronunciation abroad. The process of modifying a country’s name is neither simple nor economical. But despite it all, various parts of the world have dared to do it. Read this article to find out more details about it. Remember to read all the way through to the last country’s story — you’ll find a bonus there that explains how much it costs to make this modification.
1. Holland changed to The Netherlands.
As a marketing move, the government decided that from January 2020, the official naming of the Netherlands, would be used for promotional purposes instead of Holland, as the country is quite a popular tourist destination along with other European states. One of the reasons for this change is to “present the Netherlands as an open, inventive, and inclusive country.”
2. Ceylon changed to Sri Lanka.
Ancient Ceylon, modern-day Sri Lanka, eliminated its name that was given by the Portuguese when they discovered it in 1505. It later became part of the British Empire and gained its independence in 1948. However, it was years later that the island’s government decided to change its name. In 2011, all references to Ceylon, from official bodies to companies that still referred to the country by its previous naming, were removed.
3. The Republic of Macedonia changed to the Republic of North Macedonia.
The former Republic of Macedonia, a small European country located in Southeast Europe, changed its name to the Republic of North Macedonia in February 2019. The main reason for the change was to become a part of NATO, and also to distinguish the country from its neighbor, Greece, which has a region named Macedonia. The inhabitants will continue to call themselves “Macedonians,” and the official language will remain “Macedonian.”
4. Czech Republic changed to Czechia.
In order to facilitate the naming of the country at sporting events, as a part of companies’ marketing efforts, and in the rest of the world, the Czech Republic shortened its name to Czechia in April 2016. The measure had been discussed for 20 years until, finally, it was decided to shorten the naming so that pronunciation would be easier in each of the UN’s 6 official languages: English, French, Russian, Chinese, Spanish, and Arabic. Although the official name will still be the Czech Republic, Czechia has become the shortened official naming of the country.
5. Swaziland changed to Eswatini.
In April 2018, the king of Swaziland, in Africa, issued a statement declaring that the country’s name would change to Eswatini. The modification didn’t surprise its people since that was the name they were already using. Eswatini is just the translation of Swaziland into the local language, which means “land of the Swazis.” Besides, the previous name was confusing, since many mistook it for Switzerland.
6. Upper Volta changed to Burkina Faso.
To celebrate the twentieth anniversary of its independence, the Republic of Upper Volta was renamed Burkina Faso, which, in the local language, means “upright fatherland.” The change was made in 1984, along with an alteration to the flag and the national anthem. The previous name referred to one of the main rivers in the region.
7. Burma changed to Myanmar.
In 1989, the country’s leading military government was determined to change the name from Burma to Myanmar in an attempt to preserve the way it’s written in the local language: Myanma. However, not everyone agreed with this decision. For this reason, some parts of the world still insist on referring to this Asian country as Burma.
8. Siam changed to Thailand.
Siam’s name change to Thailand didn’t happen recently. It was established in 1939 by the dictator who ruled the country at the time. In the local language, it is pronounced Prathet Thai, which means “Land of the Free.”
9. German South West Africa changed to Namibia.
The current name was decided in 1968, by the UN. But it wasn’t until the country became independent from Germany and South Africa, that it was officially renamed Namibia. This happened in 1990.
10. Cape Verde changed to the Republic of Cabo Verde.
Another recent change was the one from Cape Verde, which took place in 2013. The country’s name is now the Republic of Cabo Verde, or simply Cabo Verde, which is what the Portuguese sailors who discovered the islands called them, in 1444.
11. Irish Free State changed to Ireland.
In 1937, with the intention of removing all ties to the United Kingdom, the Irish Free State became Ireland, or Éire, in the local Irish language.
Bonus: How much does it cost to change the name of a country?
Most of the countries on the list changed their names as a way of erasing part of their past and getting closer to their true identity, while others did it to encourage tourism, like the Netherlands. However, not everything is as easy as it seems. And it’s not cheap to switch names, either. Each nation paid millions of dollars, or its equivalent, in their local currencies when it changed its name. It is not a matter of having a clean slate. The Constitution, official stationery, and even money has to change as well. Everything that bears the country’s old name, like maps, flags, and hymns, must erase it and replace it with the new one. This, of course, takes time. And then you have the citizens, who are used to calling their country by a certain name and have to become familiar with writing it and saying it in another. These switches don’t happen overnight, and although many people will still wonder if they were even necessary at all, they usually end up embracing them.

Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart Have Been Friends for Over 50 Years , and Here Are 20 of the Best Moments From Their Bromance It may seem difficult to make friends in adulthood , however , this iconic bromance of 2 legendary actors is a great exception to that sentiment .
And even now , decades later , the whole world adores their close friendship as they watch them have fun at red carpet events , throw house parties , and mock each other on Twitter .
Here at Bright Side , we ’ ve collected some of the coolest @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of their precious bond .
Scroll down and enjoy !
Many people probably recognize both of these legendary actors from the X-Men franchise , where Patrick Stewart played Professor Xavier and Ian McKellen played Erik Lehnsherr , also known as Magneto .
As they ’ ve shared , it was while shooting the film in the 2000s that their close friendship began to blossom .
Stewart shared that on a movie set , you spend more time in a trailer than in front of the camera , and both his and McKellen ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ killed time together drinking tea .
Though the 2 actors met each other in the 1970s in the Royal Shakespeare Company , they didn ’ t become friends or stay in touch over many of the following years .
At the time , Stewart was so impressed by McKellen ’ s success that he felt intimidated by him as he was already an established actor .
In addition to their slightly similar appearances , mirrored careers , and their knighthood given to them by Queen Elizabeth II for their acting services , these @ @ @ @ @ @ @ common — their main reason for getting into acting .

It may seem difficult to make friends in adulthood, however, this iconic bromance of 2 legendary actors is a great exception to that sentiment. And even now, decades later, the whole world adores their close friendship as they watch them have fun at red carpet events, throw house parties, and mock each other on Twitter.
Here at Bright Side, we’ve collected some of the coolest, silliest pics that capture the essence of their precious bond. Scroll down and enjoy!
1.
Many people probably recognize both of these legendary actors from the X-Men franchise, where Patrick Stewart played Professor Xavier and Ian McKellen played Erik Lehnsherr, also known as Magneto. As they’ve shared, it was while shooting the film in the 2000s that their close friendship began to blossom.

Stewart shared that on a movie set, you spend more time in a trailer than in front of the camera, and both his and McKellen’s trailers were nearby, so they killed time together drinking tea.

Though the 2 actors met each other in the 1970s in the Royal Shakespeare Company, they didn’t become friends or stay in touch over many of the following years. At the time, Stewart was so impressed by McKellen’s success that he felt intimidated by him as he was already an established actor.

In addition to their slightly similar appearances, mirrored careers, and their knighthood given to them by Queen Elizabeth II for their acting services, these men have yet one more thing in common — their main reason for getting into acting. In an interview, the long-time friends confessed that they made such a choice as an escape. For Stewart, it helped him get away from his abusive father and for McKellen, acting helped him in his struggles as a closeted gay man.

The friendship of these 2 actors is so strong that in 2013, Stewart asked McKellen to become an ordained minister and officiate his wedding to his fiancée, Sunny Oznell. So McKellen actually got the official documents that gave him permission to marry people.
15.
Later, McKellen started getting a lot of letters asking him to officiate other people’s weddings for big money. McKellen could’ve turned it into a real money-maker, but he didn’t. In fact, he’s only done it once for his close friend, which Stewart found deeply touching.

A few years ago, McKellen and Stewart starred together at the Cort Theatre on Broadway in Harold Pinter’s comedy, No Mans Land and Samuel Beckett’s classic, Waiting for Godot. As McKellen explained in an interview back then, he broke into tears when the production of Waiting for Godot came to an end as he knew he would miss working with his close friend.

Today, the 2 actors are literally inseparable, from starring on Broadway and walking the red carpet together to celebrating Christmas and Thanksgiving with one another, not to mention just casually visiting and “hanging out” with each other, which fans can see pictures of on both McKellen and Stewart’s Twitter accounts.

We at Bright Side keep track of all the new trends and constantly check the collections that have been shown by all the fashion houses.
12. Chokers
Several years ago, chokers, a popular accessory from the 90s, returned. Trendy women wore leather, velvet, and plastic ones on their necks. But the trend disappeared just as quickly as it appeared. In 2020, chokers are back, but in a different way: GUCCI, Chloe, Sacai, Alexander McQueen, and Versace added gems, expensive metals, and made multi-layers variations.
11. Basic round earrings
In 2020, designers like Dolce & Gabbana, Oscar de la Renta, Missoni, and Brandon Maxwell suggest that you fight the shyness and become brighter, by replacing smaller elegant earrings with massive pieces that consist of several hoops.
10. Feathers
Year after year, accessories with feathers have been a big hit, so designers got pretty tired of them. Now fashion houses like Vivienne Westwood, Christian Dior, Jacquemus, Oscar de la Renta, and Prada suggest that we forget about them altogether in the new season and replace them with something more tropical, like for example, big seashells.
9. A set of earrings
The models from Oscar de la Renta, Valentino, Tibi, Pyer Moss, and Marc Jacobs have been wearing just one earring for several years now. But only a few girls actually go for these experiments in everyday life. But 2020 seems like a good year to add a little bit of messiness to your appearance.
8. Diamonds
7. Letters
Pendants with big letters are not trendy anymore and now they are being replaced with massive pictures of wild animals and insects. Dolce & Gabbana and Oscar de la Renta have shown the new jewelry for trendy women who don’t want to hide their wild personalities and Fendi designers decided that there are too many predators on the runways, so they came up with accessories with a turtle-shell print.
6. Coins
A couple of years ago, the trend of wearing coins appeared, but in this season love beats money. Big, and sometimes even huge, hearts were shown on almost every model in the collections of Saint Laurent, Alexander McQueen, Balenciaga, Marc Jacobs, and Chanel.
5. Stars
Stars are being replaced with spheres Bottega Veneta, Kenzo, Oscar de la Renta, Balenciaga, Valentino, and Ann Demeulemeester presented different spheres made of metal, glass, and wood. The designers got inspired by planets, the globe, magic balls, and Christmas decorations, so much so that any girl will be able to find what she likes.
4. A big pendant on a chain
Fashion houses like Zimmermann, Pyer Moss, Off-White, Alexander McQueen, and Vivienne Westwood claim that the new season is not the time for thin chains with big pieces of jewelry on them. They are being replaced with massive chains.
3. Multi-layered bracelets
Designers like Stella McCartney, Alexander McQueen, Brandon Maxwell, and Dolce & Gabbana decided to make the 2020 Spring-Summer season as practical as possible and replace the multi-layered bracelets with small purses, and they suggest using these holders for IDs, cards, and maybe even glasses. This is a great solution because we never have enough pockets.
2. One ring
In 2020, it is not trendy to wear thin rings with small gems and it’s not trendy to have just one ring on your hand. More geometric-looking gems in different colors, like the ones sold by Brandon Maxwell, Fendi, and Alexander McQueen, deserve your attention.
1. Headbands
Thin headbands with rhinestones is a trend from 2012, but for some reason, you can still buy them in almost any accessory store. If you want to make your look more modern and trendy, try looking at Fendi models who wear leather or velvet headbands on the backs of their heads.

20+ People That Will Stop at Nothing When Chasing Their Dreams All of us have our own goals and every one of them , no matter big or small , requires a lot of patience and hard work .
But there are people who set very difficult tasks for themselves like losing a lot of extra weight , building a house near the sea , getting the job of their dreams , or even getting a karate black belt at the age of 70 .

”

All of us have our own goals and every one of them, no matter big or small, requires a lot of patience and hard work. But there are people who set very difficult tasks for themselves like losing a lot of extra weight, building a house near the sea, getting the job of their dreams, or even getting a karate black belt at the age of 70.
We at Bright Side admire the people that have completely erased the words “give up” from their vocabularies.
“165 pounds gone and my mom is thriving. Look at her!!! What an inspiration. I’m so proud of you!”
“My mom and I started nursing school together this semester. Please wish us luck!”
“Won my city photo contest!”
“Wifey and I dropped almost 300 lb in the last year and a half.”
Whenever you get a low grade, think about this.
“Today my mom pointed out that I look totally different from a year ago but I couldn’t see it... Then she compared these 2 pictures and I guess I’m kind of proud of myself.”
“Bought another house for my mom but this is the one that I’ve been looking forward to my whole life...the beach house!”
“I’ve been waiting for the New Year just to show how much I’ve changed: 2010 vs 2020! Fewer pounds, more patience, plus the best friends in the universe!”
“This is my dad, he’s in his 70s and just got his black belt!! He’s been doing karate for over 30 years but was in no rush — he earned it when he felt he deserved it! Great inspiration and look how happy he is!”
“I’m finally down 100 lb!”
“My husband has been sick for a long time and he needs care, so we couldn’t even think about a dog. But still, here she is, his dream, going to meet her new owner.”
“I’ve wanted to post this for several months. January 21, 2019 vs January 21, 2020”
When they know exactly what they want:
“4 years ago we took these on my laptop because it was our dream to be in Paris together. Fast forward to now and we made it baby!”
“I finally got my dream job as a park ranger in Glacier Bay National Park, Alaska! The karmic gods must have made a clerical error.”
“It’s my first tile job and I’m quite happy with it. I’m 13!”
This couple wasn’t able to go on a cruise on their 53rd wedding anniversary, so they decided to improvise.
“The beginning of my makeup journey in 2017 at 18 years old vs now in 2020 at 20 years old — I’m so proud of myself and my eyebrows!”
“Me at 6, 16, 21 and 23. I’ve struggled with weight my whole life but am very happy to say that these last 2 years, I’ve managed to maintain a healthy weight and gain a lot more confidence.”
“How I became a student at the age of 46”
“I did this at 19 years old. Thank you to everyone who supported me. My hard work and long hours of working finally paid off. My dream is now my reality and I’m just going up from here! Thank you, God and everyone for their love.”
“In the process of building my dream home. This is the view from the kitchen today.”
