Beauty Proverb: 女为悦己者容

This proverb is pronounced "nv wei yue ji zhe rong".  It means women are inspired by those who make them happy to enhance their appearance.  In other words, women put on make-up or put on a pretty outfit because they want to impress those who make them happy.  To read more meaning into this proverb, one can say that women do not want to impress everyone, or that they are not interested in making everyone think they they are pretty. Rather, only a select few will inspire her to want to change herself for the better.
