Ugly bun baked with sweetheart approaching (10)
I believe the answer is:
unbecoming
'ugly' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'bun baked with sweetheart approaching' is the wordplay.
'baked with' indicates an anagram.
'sweetheart' becomes 'e' (the middle letter or heart of 'sweet').
'approaching' becomes 'coming' (synonyms).
'bun' anagrammed with 'e' gives 'unbe'.
'unbe'+'coming'='UNBECOMING'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for unbecoming that I've seen before include "Indelicate" , "Not flattering or fitting" , "Not flattering; unseemly" , "indecorous" , "inappropriate" .)
