LIFE STYLE

THE SMALLER THE BETTER 














































The smaller the better! Spring means flowers but the first thing that comes to my mind is  small jewelry. As I get older I get more and more attracted to jewelry, especially  minimalistic and delicate. Whether its golden, copper, silver or pink. It has to be simple and worn on the right places. I find it sexy and aesthetically beautiful. My favourite time to wear this type of jewelry is during the day and of course during summer, when no excessive clothing is needed.

ANIMAL




I remember back in my high school years I´ve read an article called ¨Hills Like White Elephants¨ by Ernest Hemingway. It became one of my favourite short stories and one I remember the most. The story refers to white elephants and their meaning to some people. A white elephant is an idiom for a valuable but burdensome possession of which its owner cannot dispose and whose cost is out of proportion to its usefulness or worth.
The animal can represent something physical like an object or personal problem. Now a days when someone talks about having a white elephant refers to the idiom. Lets say you have an inter-personal problem but if you were to dispose of it, won´t have any value to other people or affect them in any form or kind.
White elephants do exist but they are very rare. Well they are not really white but more of a light pink or reddish-brown. I like so much this idiom because I can relate to it and I believe other people can as well. Who hasn´t have a white elephant at least once in their life? The White Animals its just a blog about a little bit of everything and life...
