I’m Featured on @LaurieBStyle today: What Style Makes Me Confident?

Finding our confidence as women is never easy.

I often feel like I was more confident at 6 than 36.

But I have really found my confidence in the last two years.

That’s why it’s such an honor and delight to be featured on Laurie Brucker Image Consultant & Stylist‘s LaurieBStyle.com today where I dished about what makes me confident. Here’s the rundown:

What makes me confident? Simply getting to enjoy being a girl - er - I mean lady. *Photograph by the uber-talented Dan Velazquez of Brown Rabbit Photography

Laurie: “Meet the delicious Dawn of BeautyFrosting! What makes her confident?”
Dawn: “There’s nothing more I love than being a girl. A lady. As such, I love wearing feminine frocks that call on my girly tendencies, pay homage to my southern roots and tip my hat to my 1950s-centered aesthetic. Plus, I love to throw in a little unexpected sexy 60s/70s bombshell when people least expect it. My mom always jokes that my life is one big game of dress-up and I wouldn’t have it any other way.” 


Thanks so much, Laurie B Style!

 

xoxo,
BF

Valentine’s Faves 2014

Ahhhh, Valentine’s Day. For me, it always recalls homemade valentines at the kitchen table, sweetheart candies and…crushes on boys.

Some things never change.

But then, some things do.
This year, I decided to host a little shoot over here at The Cupcake Palace to capture all of my Valentine’s faves this year. Those of you who follow me on Instagram (@beautyfrosting) have already seen these but of course I wanted to include some pics for those readers who haven’t seen them yet.
Hope you enjoy these little Valentine’s daily delights as much as I enjoyed shooting them!

A love letter to all of you: You are enough. You are beautiful. You are loved. SO loved. Xoxo, Me (*hydrangea ℅ Rendez-Vous Florist on 3rd Street)  *coffee cup by Sur La Table and *Love Note stationery from Anthropologie

 

B. as in Be Mine. *Baseball cap ℅ J.Crew * heart champagne flutes by World Market *pink sequined apron backdrop from Haute Hostess Aprons

 

These are a few of my favorite things… Beginning with a heart charm necklace and heart cutout ring by FleaMarket Girl

My most beloved Valentines gifts this year? A ruby red glittering bottle of Pinot Noir from Hope At Home & One Hope Wine & a V-day hued Kate Spade New York iPhone case. Add in that Anthropologie "Hello Gorgeous" valentine's card and I'm smitten.

 

More of my Valentine faves? A cream puff of pink thanks to Tarte Cosmetics Lipsurgence and cheek stain in Fearless , Jouer Cosmetics lip gloss in Peony , Haute Hostess pink chiffon apron , James Serra Cristallio rosé champagne, cake pops from SweetXO and a another sweet valentine card from Anthropologie. Pink perfection.

 

Really boys, you shouldn't have. In a floral paradise or being bombarded with bouquets by boys? Only you can decide...

And I hope you had a very, very SWEET Valentine’s day with the ones who steal your heart away.

 

xoxo,

BF
