Iterating on items() doesn't seem to be needed unless you are trying to
trap each possible keyword argument that may be passed. This works as well:
import maya.cmds as mc
win = mc.window()
def frame(**kwargs):
frame_layout = mc.frameLayout()
mc.frameLayout(frame_layout, edit=1, **kwargs)
frame(label='foo', borderStyle='etchedIn')
frame(label='bar', borderStyle='etchedIn')
frame(label='zed', borderStyle='etchedOut')
mc.showWindow(win)
