I am expecting Twins!

I am bursting at the seams with joy to announce that we are pregnant with twins! I waited until I was half way thru the pregnancy before sharing the news (19.5 weeks). Our little bundles of joy are due January/February. Twin births always come early, which make it that much more exciting! It has been a long road in becoming pregnant, my empathy is with all couples whom have struggled with fertility issues. Starting a family is a true blessing & the most wonderful act of love between two people.  I walk around NYC amongst the hustle & all of a sudden I feel a flutter in my stomach. It's the most incredible experience of my life. My body is creating lives right now. I am lucky to live in NYC and have the best team of doctors and holistic healers aiding me on my journey. I will post that journey in another blog!

Love,
Kaki

Celebrating New York Fashion Week

During New York Fashion Week, I got to sit in the front row at my dear friend Michael Costello’s Spring 2015 runway show.  I was blessed to sit next to my best friend and makeup guru Tay Rivera. The show was a 10. The unique collection featured sets of gowns that went from floral to mesh to midnight blue; there was something for everyone. Congratulations to Michael! The show was incredible and his career is booming. Next stop Bergdorff Goodman's!

Instagram Fun

Perhaps more than any other social media site, I love Instagram. I love it for many reasons, but mainly because it’s a place just for photos. Through a photograph, I can say more than I ever could through the written word. As the saying goes “A picture is worth a 1000 words.” It’s also a great way to entertain myself, especially when I can’t sleep!

FHM Cover Model

Over the course of my modeling career, I’ve had the privilege of gracing the cover of FHM magazine more than a few times. As I look back on all those experiences, I can’t help but feel truly blessed! My blog features details on each shoot, but for this post I wanted to share some of my favorite pics with you.

Los Angeles Fun

As an L.A. girl, I’m always ready to see the unique sights of this wonderful city. Here are just some of the ways I spend my summer in the City of Angels.

The Hollywood Sign
 

I had the pleasure of visiting this iconic image during a photo shoot the other day, and it was worth the hour walk! If you want to reach the closest to the sign, start at the end of Deronda Drive. Next, start walking up the road. In 60 minutes you should reach a fence, the closest legal viewpoint of the sign.

 
In-n-Out 
 

You can’t get this taster burger in the East Coast. And you can’t enjoy a California summer without one. Perhaps it’s tasty because they only use 100 percent pure beef that is free of preservatives and additives. I also love the place because the menu is simple: burgers, fries, and shakes.

Poolside Fun
 

Besides the beach, the only way to beat an incredibly hot Los Angeles day is to jump into the pool.  If you don’t have one at home or in your apartment, don’t sweat it. The City of Angels is home to many beautiful hotels that open their pools to the public for summer events.

LA Style

Wondering how the locals dress in L.A.? Los Angeles style is invariably evolving, and the look of the moment always depends on the person. That’s because the City of Angels is all about embracing individual style. That said -- there are a few ways you can always spot an Angelino. Whether you’re on vacation or have been living here all of your life, use this simple guide to fit in no matter where you go in L.A.

Show some skin.

Don’t waste a beautiful warm day in Los Angeles covered up. Southern California is blessed with abundant sunshine and true Angelinos know how to get their vitamin D. So break out your summer dresses, short skirts, and short shorts.

 Flaunt high heels. Since you rarely have to walk in this city, you can easily get away with wearing your tallest heels -- even while out running errands.












Get colorful. A Los Angeles native always stands out, whether it’s bright pink lipstick, a bright yellow dress, or red heels. Don’t be afraid to break out the rainbow while living in L.A.!

NYC in the Summer

There’s a lot to do in NYC during the warmest months of the year. As a recent transplant, I’m still exploring the Big Apple and discovering its many gems and hidden treasures. But it’s a wonderful place to call home. My favorite thing to do is just ride my bike and enjoy the incredible views!
