Fine.
I guess 美里＝彼女, so I feel it's like「美里 smiled, and 美里's eyes looks calm as same as 白く美しい少女's eyes. 」.
I think this is the most natural interpretation.
And I think it's not so unusual even if you can't find the sentence which mentions "白く美しい少女's eyes looks calm" anywhere, though it's not easy to understand.

The other possibilities can not fully be denied. Like "彼女=白く美しい少女 and her eyes looks calm as same as 美里's."
or "彼女 is some other third person", or some other terrible typo. But I'd say the possibilities are small.
