I was sixteen on the left. Now fifty-five and a half on the right. Same spirit, same sparkle, same woman who always knew who she was.

My mother gave me that gift early: the belief in my own beauty, and the knowledge that no one was ever superior to me. That confidence never left me, it just grew up with me.

Even though my mother spoiled me with material things, the best gift she ever gave me wasn’t something I could hold. It was the belief in myself that I’ve carried every day since.

The best thing a parent can give a daughter is belief in herself, planted early enough that nothing can uproot it.

To every mother raising a girl who dreams big: keep telling her who she is. She’s listening, and one day she’ll show you exactly what you gave her. 🖤👑

Love,
La Reine Cynthia

Words can’t fully capture how grateful I am for this response. My Beauty Queen Collection lipsticks have touched something in so many of you, and I feel every bit of that love.

Reading your reviews has become one of my favorite parts of this journey. They remind me why this collection exists.

For those still deciding: step into the allure of Majesté, the regality of La Reine, the sophistication of Grande Dame, or the authority of Impératrice. Yes 4 amazing shades suitable for all skin tones.

Each one hydrating, richly pigmented, and cruelty free. Because, you are worth it ✨

This time next week, I’ll be in Texas competing in America’s Most Beautiful Nationals as Mrs. Atlantic.

I decided to join last minute, only two weeks to prepare, but I’m having a blast already. From pulling out my gowns, putting together my wardrobe, connecting with other contestants, it’s been a whirlwind, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

Stay tuned to see what it’s really like to walk a pageant stage at 55 after an ankle injury✨

07/23 Interviews. 07/24 Prelims. 07/25 Finals.

Like I always say, you don’t have to get ready if you stay ready. 😊

Earlier tonight I attended our monthly Library Trustee Board meeting. The proposed municipal reorganization affecting our Framingham Public Library was back on the agenda.

Mayor Charlie Sisitsky and City Councilor Mike Cannon were in attendance. The conversation continued to be thoughtful and engaged. The reorganization will now go before next week’s City Council meeting for a vote.

As an elected Library Trustee, I’m proud to see how much this community cares about our library. Even in the midst of a lot of discussion, that love comes through. 📚

Per my previous post, it was an honor to open the public reading of the Declaration of Independence alongside 10 fellow elected officials on the steps of Framingham’s Memorial Building yesterday…250 years to the day after it was first read publicly in Boston. #AmericanHistory #FraminghamMA #womenWhoLead 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Bonjour friends, well… never say never lol! Friends, since I am on break from school at Harvard, I have decided to compete in a beauty pageant again….America’s Most Beautiful Nationals in a couple of weeks in Texas.

For those who know my journey, it’s been years since I’ve been a contestant myself. Since then I’ve stepped into new roles in this beauty pageant world, as a judge, a coach, and a commentator through my award winning Crowned Voice interviews.🎥🎙️ I also just came back from an ankle injury that kept me out of heels for 11 months, so this is a full circle moment for me. Plus, I am 55 1/2 years old, and will be standing on stage next to women who are half my age.

But why? and why now?? Because it’s fun, because it brings awareness to my widow policy advocacy work, because I get to make new friends in this sisterhood, and honestly, because I still get to wear my beautiful gowns. Plus it’s going to be an amazing summer experience!😊

Yes, I am back on stage, as Mrs. Atlantic 2026. Let’s Frolic!!!

Per my previous post, while in Charlotte, North Carolina 4th of July weekend for Ziv’s Taekwondo Nationals we made the most of our time in the Queen City.🇺🇸

We explored Uptown Charlotte and had the most delightful surprise…running into some of our beautiful followers while simply walking around. That never gets old. We love meeting our online community in person 🤍

We also visited the Dunhill Hotel, a historic landmark that was once a jail for runaway slaves. However, what was shocking to me was that when we asked the employees about the history none of them knew😩 Some stories must be told and preserved!!! 🙏🏽

On another day we took a photo in front of the iconic Queen City sign because when in Charlotte, you must. 👑

And our home base for the weekend was the beautiful Hilton Uptown Charlotte was close and made it easy for us to frolic. Look at that beautiful lobby connected to the Hilton ✨

Charlotte surprised us in the best way. Stay tuned for Ziv in action at nationals and also other places we visited during our stay in North Carolina.
