I am kicking off the “motherhood” section of MKIA with my 5 favorite baby products. After nearly 11 weeks of twin baby bliss, I now know I could not live without these: 1. Wimmer Ferguson...
I had to share this recipe because I’ve now made it twice in the last three weeks – Gwyneth Paltrow’s Grilled Halibut with Mango-Avocado Salsa is super delicious. Now that we live i...
There is something so left-bank cool about the cape. This season it’s the one “trend” I am really jonesing to acquire. I’ve always appreciated the elegance of the silhouette a...
This may not be the newest song, but I am so in LOVE. I’ve been blasting it in the car every chance I get to escape without the new babes. Check it out here: myspace.com/elliegouldin g/music/son...
Hello! It’s been a while, I know. A lot has happened and I apologize for not keeping you all informed. As you may remember from my last post (A Blissful Bikini Wax), we moved to Dallas in April...
I just had the best, most painless bikini wax of my life. And because this phenomenon is so rare I felt I had to pass on the information despite the fact that unlike everything else MKIA, waxing is n...
Soulful beyond her years – Adele does not disappoint with her sophomore album. Download the entire catalog and hit shuffle – itunes.com/adele.
I absolutely hate wearing bras. Some girls love them. I even know a few who sleep in them (you freaks know who you are). This is not me. I cannot stand the feeling of the straps around my back and sh...
I just picked up this light weight cardigan at Anthropologie. The drapey, scarf neck detail has some shimmer and is really beautiful (the photo does not do it justice). It kind of reminded me of what...
Who says you can’t learn anything from Gossip Girl? Not me. I find something worthwhile in every episode and normally it’s along the lines of how to layer a knit vest over a sweater and s...
It’s no secret among my family and friends that I love beautiful art. I tend to gravitate to modern and contemporary art. If you are asking what is the difference, that is a good question. I fo...
The health benefits of eating salmon have been widely reported. I believe it is one of the most complete proteins you can put in your body and I try to make it for us at least once a week. Now I am n...
Love this tee to layer under sweaters now, leather jackests and blazers as the weather gets warmer. Buy at singer22.com.
Last week one of my favorite actresses and fellow blogger, Gwyneth Paltrow, sent out a Goop.com newsletter listing her favorite “French” beauty products. At the end of the post was a link...
I know, I know. Where have I been? My last post was two weeks ago and that is just unacceptable. I agree and apologize. I was busy finalizing the new MKIA design, which I hope you all enjoy. Make sur...
We had a very laid back NYE this year – a dinner party at a friend’s house with a small group of couples, most of whom we did not know. It was great to meet new people and ring in the new...
(The beach at the W Hotel.) This October my husband and I wanted to get away for a long weekend but instead of heading to Miami, which we always seem to do, we chose the road less traveled and checke...
I am sucker for lace but this is also embroidered! The bodice is lined (so no extra tank necessary) and the shape and detailing are so pretty. Check it out at shopbop.com. Direct link: http://tiny.cc...
The reigning good girl of the pop divas, Natasha Bedingfield, does not deviate from the feel good, female empowerment formula for her third album, Strip Me. And I agree…why mess with a good thi...
I’ve never been one to make New Year’s resolutions because I believe that you can make changes in your life at any time. I do, however, think that this new year is a good opportunity to r...
It must be cold all over the country because I’ve received a lot of requests for skin care secrets to combat dry winter skin. First things first – get a good humidifier. Dry heat beats up...
Last Spring I visited a nutritionist to learn how I could better prepare my body for pregnancy and just improve my overall health. I was not a sugar junkie or a fast food addict and I am sure by most...
Getting sick of Christmas music? Need something a little less saccharine to keep you from going bananas by the time the holidays arrive? Well here are five antidotes that should keep your inner grinc...
The season of giving is upon us but choosing a cause and charity worthy of your time and money can be daunting. With so many not-for-profits out there and numerous scandals involving the misuse of mo...
By now you are hearing holiday music everywhere you go…Starbucks, Saks, the supermarket – even my doctor’s office has it playing. My personal Christmas playlist was in desperate nee...
Thanks to my husband for helping me come up with these six great suggestions. I think he might have used this opportunity to drop a few hints too! I steered clear of the obvious – no pajamas, c...
A very wise woman recently suggested that I dedicate a post to book recommendations. MKIA does not normally cover books - not because I don’t read but rather because I am somewhat insecure about my t...
Ladeez – Here’s to your holiday. (I watched The Real Housewives last night and now I can’t shake that Atlanta attitude, girl.) Because we are always thinking about everybody else, t...
Years ago my cousin-in-law told me to try YSL’s Touche Eclat as a light concealer. An executive at Estee Lauder with flawless skin, when she gives beauty recommendations you listen. For the bet...
I’ve been eagerly awaiting the complete release of Rihanna’s new album, Loud. It went live on iTunes yesterday and thank goodness I was not disappointed. Decidedly more upbeat than Rated ...
