Ashley from "The Shine Project" happens to be my first official "blog" friend. We are both AZ girls and I love Ash and what she stands for. She works hard trying to make other people's lives beautiful, but I wanted to know - what does Ashley feel most beautiful in? Here's what she had to say.
I feel most beautiful in a smile. I've noticed that when I'm smiling, it's usually because I'm focused on the people around me, and not myself. When I look outward, and give freely, my whole being lights up. There's nothing better than the joy that comes from lighting up someone's day with a smile. It makes me feel beautiful because, as Audrey Hepburn says, "Happy girls are the prettiest girls."
Thanks for sharing this great message Ash. Make sure to stop by her blog to see all the smiles she's created on a daily basis for herself and for others. :)

A beautiful post from a beautiful lady!
There's tons of research out there showing that we are actually happiest when we are not thinking of ourselves (which oftentimes actually means 'while we are working.') It's just that we don't necessary recognize it as such. Funny, eh.
Very pretty smile! And when it's that pretty it'd be a crime not to show it off. Thanks for sharing - I'll be popping over to her blog to say hi!

I LOVE that so many girls are saying "a smile". It is so true though! Honestly, what's better than smiling?
This is great! I am always saying this, too. Clothes, makeup, etc. have their place but I am so glad she chose something non-materialistic for her answer. Truly classy.
Nicely said.
Beautifully said.. A smile is all u need.. Love d post..
I love that so many ladies are calling attention to the fact that someone can be wearing the fanciest clothes in the world, but without a smile, they're not going to be their most beautiful.
Love this!
I looks great in the photo.
xoxo
she's gorgeous and fun! <3
