Yummy411: Inspiration- Mother's Day


I was browsing Brownsista.net and came across this gorgeous photo of Alicia Keys. I see many inspirational photos of gorgeous people and makeup, but this made me think of a wonderful Mother's Day idea. I would love to take a photo like this for Mother's Day..... hmmmm I wonder if I could pull it off? I'm no Alicia Keys, but this is quite striking.

Doesn't she just look lovely?



RIP Shu Uemura

Of course you can mama! You don't have to be no Alicia Keys. You and yourself will do just fine! What a great inspirational photo for Mother's Day.

And speaking of Alicia Keys, I've been listening to her album NON-STOP for the past couple of days. I love it! It keeps me focused :) Have you heard it yet?

Go for it! That would be so pretty! When you do, make sure you take plenty of pics of your face/make-up so that we can get in!

BTW, I love your make up tutorials Ren Ren! I am officially addicted to make-up toots on Youtube! LOL!

@ mischo beauty: i would LOVE to do it, just what photographer and how do i get those props! LOL

@ nilla cookie: channeling kimora! oh but i'd be much nicer on set! LOL

@ memphiz: omg! that's crazy, but such a wonderful compliment. thanks for sharing! one day i'll be traveling here, there and every where and i'll be in your area to do your makeup =)

@ mrs. lynne: isn't that a cool idea? i always see the sample photos of babies surrounded by roses, but this is so adult and beautiful. i've heard most of her cd, but of course, ppl had to play "No one" and the other released single (common's in the video) to ad nauseum! i think it's a great album though. what are your favorites?

have you thought about mother's day yet? i know it's a bit early, but i think of ways that i want to treat myself!

@ makeupbyrenren: hey i was thinking that hmmm knowing me i want the who shabang! LOL

renren, you are already on the blogroll miss lady. besides, i subscribe to your blog ;)

I love Alicia Keys! She always looks so gorgeous! And I say YES, do a photo like this for mommy's day! That would be such a cute and neat idea! Reminds me of a photoshoot I did awhile ago....I say do it!

Karen said...

This is a very pretty picture. I love the colors and the textures and of course, Ms. Thang looks very pretty. You should totally rock this for mother's day.

No one, no one, no oooone ... God I love that song!

I am so happy that deep purple is the "in" color right now... It has always been my fav. She look gorgeous!

yummy411 said...

@ vanessa: really? do you have photos of it? would you like to share? i don't mind if you don't.. i just think this is a great idea for anyone!

@ karen: thanks karen!! omg, guess who loves the song even more?? babyyum! he and his cousin ride in the car together after day care and anytime the song comes on, they both say "turn it up!" and continue "no oooonnnee!" LOL!!

@ eb the celeb: isn't purple just royal?? btw, i love your name ;) great blogs too! the renaissance woman is my fav right now =)
