Examples of sparkly in a Sentence

  1. Kristen Bell:

    My immediate reaction is always to answer with words like' strong' and' brave' and' powerful,' but if I'm being honest, to me, being a woman is not about being brave or being strong or being powerful. It's not about being anything specific, it's just about giving yourself permission to be the things that you already are, which seems very easy, but it is not. Because women have been conditioned to fit into boxes ; usually tiny, pretty, sparkly boxes with bows on the them.

  2. Pam Dawber:

  3. Ella Johnson:
