Move over Cake Boss, there’s a new boss in the baking business, and her name is Britney Felton.  This junior Entrepreneurship major reveals her discovery of her talents in baking, as well as her plan on creating her own bakery business.

Felton discovered her creative talents in her kitchen in her hometown of Washington, D.C.  “I always used to bake with my mom, and she would buy me things to make in my easy bake oven, so I’ve always been baking.” 

She also began to assist the cook at her grandmother’s nursery.  There, she would help the cooks prepare the food for the students and afterwards, bake the staff cakes and brownies.

Although Felton received positive feedback from her baking, it was not until she created her sister’s 21st birthday cake that she realized her potential to turn baking into a career.

Felton’s decision to create a cake for her sister stemmed from love, as well as thriftiness.  “She wanted a Juicy Couture cake, which costs $500, and I’m not going to pay that much on a cake, so I decided to make it myself”, said Felton.

Felton had her share of doubters when completing this cake. “Nobody believed in me when I told them I was going to make this cake”, Felton said. “That gave me so much motivation.”

Bullock, a junior Health Information Management major, went through many changes to develop his style. In an interview with Her Campus Temple, he reveals how it all started.

When Bullock was 14, he went through a time trying to define his style. “I was in the middle of trying to figure out not who I wanted to be, but how I wanted to look,” he said. 

At the time, Bullock had braids in his hair and wore glasses.  But this look changed when Bullock “wanted to change everything up.”

So Bullock cut off all his braids, started wearing contacts, and began shopping at different stores like Urban Outfitters, Diesel, and The Gap.

It was through this transformation that Bullock started to find his own style.

When asked what makes him want to purchase an article of clothing, Bullock said, “as soon as I look at a piece of clothing, I can tell if I’m going to want it or not.”  When Bullock sees something that he likes, he pictures in his mind what he could wear it with and adjusts it to his liking.

Bullock was voted “most trendy” in high school and he has carried this title with him throughout his college years as well.

At times he follows fashion trends, while other times he does not. His sense of style is not the same as his friends. He feels that at times he follows his own fashion trends.

Bullock enjoys shopping at fashionable stores such as Urban Outfitters, Diesel, H&M, Zara, Lucky Brand, and Kenneth Brand.
