An act of goodwill by Applejack suddenly leads to her entry into the first annual "Miss Ponyville Pageant." Determined to help their friend pull a victory, Rarity and Fluttershy give the work horse a crash course in in the finer aspects of lady-like behavior. But how bad do they want her to win? More importantly, who's gong to take care of AJ's hat?
Story in a nutshell:
Applejack doesn't win the pageant and they all learn a lesson in friendship about not taking
advantage of your friends.

I think there's something missing at the end of chapter one. The last thing I see is
“Pleeeeeese say you'll stop by Sugarcube Corner
And then the start of chapter two which doesn't seem to make much sense, so I think something got left out. Looks interesting so far though.
Repairs have been made. Thanks for noticing.
You should've cracked a joke about "Rainbow Dash always dresses in style" would've been great.
That ending
that hat is magical
Okay, having now read both of your stories so far, I've gotta say...you've got a gift for writing Rarity, man. I can definitely hear all her lines in my head, complete with her weird Madonna-y accent.
Also, the stuff with AJ's hat was great. And bringing wrestling signs to a beauty pageant needs to be a thing in real life.
583415 Thanks. This was actually a practice fic before I jumped into "Road to Ponyville." Good to know you enjoyed this too.
Excellent.
I thought this was fun. Felt like an episode.
Nice stuff. The ending felt a touch rushed but you wrote everyone perfectly. I loved the second storyline with Aj's hat. Bravo.
Nice story, could almost be made into an episode as-is -- especially the little amusing sight gags.
I felt that Fluttershy was a bit OOC though, and the Apollo scene near the end felt tacked-on and pointless. Also the bad punctuation detracts from the story.
Even today, this is the best-titled story on this site.
