Blake Lively is feeling all of the love — and giving some back!

On Wednesday, the It Ends With Us star took to Instagram to share some praise she recently received.

“I got maybe the best compliment of my life after this weekend. Someone on social called me a ‘crown straightener’. ‘A woman going around straightening all the women’s crowns around her’ It meant so much to me because it’s those invisible things people see that make us all feel best,” Lively wrote. 

The 36-year-old actress went on to celebrate some important women in her life, including husband Ryan Reynolds’ mother, Tammy Reynolds, and It Ends With Us author, Colleen Hoover.

This weekend alone was packed with that empowering female energy. When I looked back at these pics, I saw it all in action.
