Barbara Barrington Jones has traveled as a CES speaker for more than twenty years, speaking to women from Weiser, Idaho to Beijing, China. As the author of five books for women, International Image Consultant, fashion designer, and former professional classical ballerina, she has also lived through a twelve-year abusive marriage ending in the suicide of her husband.
Barbara spends her life seeking to empower women to realize their divine destiny - to be happy, look great, and find peace. She helps bring out the best in people, gives hope to those who have little or no hope, and love to those who have never felt loved, a listening ear to those who have never had the courage to talk, and a hug to those who have never been hugged.
I love this book. It was really helpful for me to feel better about myself. Barbara is such and amazing woman she has really changed my life. My best friend is her granddaughter and so I know her pretty well. She is the most hardworking person I have ever met. One time I visited her when she was at the hospital and even though the doctor told her she shouldn't leave her house for at least a month I could tell she was dying to go do another conference that she had planned the upcoming week. Anyways, this is a great book and it is very inspiring!!!
My mom got me this book when I was a teenager, and I loved it! Written by Barbara Barrington Jones, who advises Miss Americas and Miss USAs- half the book is written about outer beauty. Makeup, fashion, recipes for face masks, exercise, taking care of your body, sleep, hair cut and styles, etc, etc, etc and the other half of the book is about the more IMPORTANT beauty: inside beauty.
Even though its outdated now, I would still HIGHLY recommend this book for every teenage girl!
This book is awesome! It has everything to know about feeling good about yourself! One thing I really learned was if you don't like it, either accept it or change it, but don't feel sorry for yourself. If feel great now! I've also taken some of the advice for putting on make-up. It works pretty well! The tips in this book are awesome!
there is a new book Called in amazon "Shine Bright Like a Diamond how to be beautiful inside-out" i really recommend everybody to get it, it's a life changing book
