About Me

My name is Melina Starr and MKIA is my version of the perfect online magazine. I created it for women like me who are interested in fashion, home décor, music, cooking, beauty, health and fitness and want thoughtful, researched advice on what’s worth buying and trying. Oh, and we want it to be one-click away too. That’s why everything on MKIA can be read, downloaded, purchased, or obtained in some other magical way online.
