Hey everyone ❤
As you may already have noticed we didn’t follow our blogging schedule and you can’t believe how sorry we are! Our both lives have been pretty messy the last days and we needed to figure out a lot of things. We wrote many tests in school and Kijana is dancing every weekend with her group and has trainings twice a week and it’s pretty hard for her to manage everything right now 😦
This is only a quick post giving you a short explanation why we haven’t been uploading regularly
We hope you understand and you will still be a reader of our blog ❤
Until next time

About the stupid little monsters in the tummy
Hey you ❤
Again I have to apologize, but something is wrong with the backup here.
I actually planned a “What’s on my iPhone” post and I wrote that about 2 hours, and then I wanted to add the pictures and suddenly the last backup was deleted, so I made this post.
These monsters I am mentioning in the title are also known as butterflies, but I use to call them monsters. Why? Hm, I think butterflies are beautiful, nice and lovely, but love is not always that beautiful.
It is a hard topic to write about because everybody has a different way of view. To be honest, I am disappointed of love. In my opinion it hurts too often. I mean I say this all in general, what is wrong, but these were my first thoughts.
People on my age fall in love, but you know, we watch the movies with the happy ending and although we do not want to admit it, we expect such a love story, too. We want to be loved.
All I write here I can reflect on myself. Like we all have this one boy, we cannot forget. For my new year resolutions I decided to let people like him go, but I realized that we cannot pretend that we are over someone when our stupid heart says the complete different.
Lots of my friends have a boyfriend and somehow, when you are laying in your bed at 11 p.m., you are thinking about these things. And then you are thinking about all these people who have someone they can cuddle and love while you are crying alone.
And then, there is this moment, when your sad playlist is over and you decide to give a fuck of feelings.
This moment changes you and the question is whether this is good or bad. And it makes me kinda smile to think about how often I went through such a time and how often I will go through it, because I know when I’m gonna see him, I will throw everything away ready to scream him into his face ” I love you! Why can’t you see that? Why do you cause billions of feelings? Tell me and love me! ” and in the end, we will pass by, with a shy smile on our lips, asking ourself why we didn’t do that.
But we all have that hope that he is thinking the same.
I know this is a strange post, but maybe some of you can understand what I mean ❤ 🙂

My collection of beauty products
Hey everyone ❤
first of all I want to apologize that this post is published today instead of yesterday. The reasons are that I felt sick, so it was one of these days were you realize that everything sucks 😀 and another reason was that I had neither my macbook or my iPhone to upload something.
But today is the day and below you can read something special we want to announce! ❤
Well then. I love beauty products. My parents use to say “Oh gosh Anna! What do you want with all these things?” Maybe this is a good question, but it is unnecessary because they can ask me a thousand times for a reason and I know that I am not able to give them a satisfying answer. Because I think for parents it is hard to accept our unbeatable arguments like “Because I’m a girl!” or “Uhm. Just because I can?”.
Anyway, whenever I saw all these good looking people in TV I was sitting there with big eyes. I mean what girl did not want to become a model? So I was very exited when I got my first make up set.
From then until now my requirements are much higher. Beauty products should have good quality, they should fit into the season and of course they have to look good on me 😀
Now I can proudly present my most used beauty products ! xx
My BOBBI BROWN eyeshadow palette 🙂 I ADORE this one because it has this light glow and the nude colors are great. I use the lightest shadow as a highlighter, so you can see that it is multifunctional.
It costs about 45€
My MAYBELLINE MASTER GRAPHIC EYELINER. You have to know that I really like eyeliner, but in the morning, I just have not enough time to “draw” a perfect eyeliner. I tried so many different ones, but in my opinion it is the best. It is kinda liquid, but it does not smear over your lid. The top is pointed so it is really easy to have a precise eyeliner 🙂
It is about 10 €
This mascara from MANHATTEN in new-in. So I have to apologize, I just tried it once, but it was really really great. Kijana uses this mascara and she has wonderful eyelashes. The lashes do not stick together or something like that.
This is also about 10 €
My eyebrows are maybe the part in my face I like most. At least sometimes. They are kinda hard to care for 😀 It’s because my eyebrows are really dark. But I don’t color or paint them, and because my hairs are much brighter, you can see every damn hair that does not fit 😀 Anyway. I’m using the ASTOR eyebrow gel and today I bought this MAYBELLINE BROWdrama. I have no idea what it is like, but I think it is great.
Price: don’t remember but I think around 5-10€
My bronzer is also from MAYBELLINE. (I do not know why I’ve got so much of them). I own it in two different shades. A lighter and a darker one, and I usually decide which one I use when I am looking into the mirror (in summer I prefer the darker one)
It costs about 4 € per bronzer
My MAC Studio Fit Concealer. I always wanted to have this tiny box and now I finally have it. I love it because it fits perfect to my skin, it matts my skin and hides my parts of impure skin (luckily I have a good skin)
About 23 €
NAKED 2 EYESHADOW. I posted a picture of this in the post about my Christmas presents. I’m still in love with the colors and how it looks in your lid, so I can totally recommend it ❤
Price: 45 €
I do not like foundations. Maybe that’s because I don’t need it, but I’ve got the experience that my skin is worser after I am using foundation. So I decided to buy this little tube of the BETTER SKIN FOUNDATION by MAYBELLINE. As the name says it should be good for your skin. So, I’m exiting to see results.
About 3 €
Kijana recommended me this lovely silver/white eyeshadow. It looked really great on her so I went to the drugstore today to buy it 🙂 But I’m in love with the colors ❤
Price: 7€
And last but not least my MAC STUDIO FIX powder. Because I do not use foundation, I decided to buy a covering powder. It feels airy on your skin, but you can not see one impureness. That’s awesome and I would definitely buy it again! I love it ❤
It costs about 35 €
The BENEFIT PORE MINIMIZER. The question is, who does not have this one? I love it. It is the perfect base for everything else and your skin feels so soft ❤ Love it!
About 30 €
So and this was my presentation of my beauty products. I really hope you liked it. Maybe I’m gonna show you some looks one day 😉
No products were sponsored. I all bought them myself. This is no commercial, but my own opinion xx
And now about our announcement: We got nominated for the LIEBSTER Award, so on FRIDAY we will post an extra post about this award. We hope that you like our blog so far! We would be happy for some feedback, or if you could share our blog so we would have more opportunities like lottery and other stuff.
Love you ❤

A Day In The City
Hey guys! ❤
Today the two of us spent a day in the city and of course did some shopping 😀
The first thinmg we did after our train arrived was, like you could have expect it, eating. But not somewhere in a no-name fast food restaurant. No, we ate salad, yes, we are healthy 😀 , at Dean&David. The super-delicious “Chicken Ceasar’s Salad”. It was probably the best salad, we have ever eaten. It was perfect.
First, we played with the thought to stay at this cafe, because although we just had been there for an hour, our feet hurt so much ( well, this might be obvious because we wore high shoes, but it looks great, tho).
So, we made the pedastrian area to our catwalk 😀 (hahahahahaha. No. Joke) and our target was Douglas.
There, Kijana found something, that made her to be the happiest girl ever. At least until we went to the next shop 😀
She found this treasure
The Benefit Dandelion Blush.
It looks really super cute and with her hairs /they are currently back (she looks like snow white!)
The next fabulous store we captured was Zara.
Zara is a store, you can enter and normally you can be sure that you will find something, and oh yes, we did find something ❤ 😀
First of all Kijanas shirts
And then Annas finds
We made a quick stop at H&M before we headed to a drugstore called “Müller” where we found loads of things 🙂
The first pictures are the things from H&M and after that there are the things we got in Müller
<a
Our last stop today was SIX. We couldn’t make it to any other store because our feet hurt so much hahah 😀
This is what we got there 🙂
<br /
Now we’re happily laying in our beds and let our feet rest after this hard but beautiful shopping day!
We hope your day was as good as ours and that you like today’s post ❤
See you soon

A post about… wait, about what?
Hey guys ❤
Yep, today it is my turn with the post. I was thinking about a topic for quite a while, and then I decided for a mix of everything I want . This has two main reasons. First: We had school until 5 o’clock p.m and nothing really special happened today. Just hanging around the school with all these people. By the way, whenever I am entering school I am listening to the song “I don’t fuck with you” by Sean Paul to get into the right mood 😀 People always say that music changes the way of view. I think, that’s kinda right. Like, that’s maybe embarrassing, but whenever I am listening to “Blank Space” I am feeling cute as fuck, “Take me to Church” makes me feel musing and “Chandelier” like an awesome dancer 😀 Well, I think I went off on a tangent 🙂
When I look back at the first days of the new year, I have to say, that yesterday was my favorite day. It includes everything I wanted to realize. Like for first I slept well and long and after that I had breakfast with my mum and my lovely sister.
At the evening, when I watched “Gossip Girl” and ate a little bit of ice cream, I made something like a plan for the next day, which included what I wanted to do. On the plan I wrote learning math, doing a bit of pilates. That was what I wanted to do. So, I did. And oooh my gosh, when I finished learning, it was about four o’clock p.m my mother and my sister started to bake waffles, and you have to know that I ADORE them ❤
So I have to say it was a very successful afternoon and it ended by scrolling through my pictures and well there I found some nice ones but also so many pictures, where I thought “What the…??!!” 😀
You know the feeling when you did some very nice selfies and you are thinking “Daaaamn I think I actually do not look as ugly as normal” and then, full of enthusiasm you scroll through you pictures and think “Uhm, okay, I .. well.. no, just no”.
But I think I’m gonna show you some of these pictures in a separate post 😉 So it’s everything embarrassing 😀
Yep, that’s exactly what I thought yesterday evening ❤
New Years Goals
Hey everyone! ❤
For our first “regular” post, we decided to let you all know what our goals for 2015 are.
Anna:
“New year, new chances”. I think this is actually my goal. I want to spend my year with people like Kijana, who make my life brighter and happier. Last year, my sky was full of clouds, weights that were on my shoulders. For this year I thought that I want it to live like I want it. So, a part of this is a lifestyle. I decided to clean my body, I want to be more healthier. So therefore I am going to buy me a yoga book to relax and calm down. A part of this lifestyle is also the way I see things. I used to look at things in a negative way, but that should be over now. I try to distance myself from people that weren’t good for me and got me down.
Another goal is this blog here. I really want to work hard to get at least 1k follower here. I know that this will be hard work, but Kijana and me, we have got some good ideas you will get to know 😉
This year I also want to make myself some presents. I want to find a way earning money to realize dreams by deserving it. Not as a present of my parents, but more from myself to myself.
Friendship. This will be more important than ever before. I found new treasures in my life and I’d like to spend more time with them, like going into holidays with them, see them more often, do more “I guess we should not do that, but anyway”- activities and just be happy with them.
These are my personal goals for 2015. I probably would be as happy as I have not been for a long time.
Kijana:
“New year, New chances” is like Anna my personal motto for 2015. This year I want to honestly live and live like it’s every day the last day of my life because life could be over so soon. I want to stop adjourning things I want to do and start doing them instead because I so often said “oh tomorrow I will do it” and let’s all be honest here we won’t do it tomorrow so from now on I want to start doing and stop wishing. What I always wanted and adjourned was living a healthier lifestyle and doing sports regularly but this year I will achieve it and seriously I never was more excited and motivated to do it! 🙂
Another motto this year is “smile more, worry less” because I’m getting sick of worrying about all my life and thinking about what I could have done better in the past.
As Anna I’d love to get 1k by the end of this year on our blog and additionally I want to get 15k followers on tumblr which I hopefully achieve.
I want to do more things with friends like traveling, going out or some other “we shouldn’t have done it but glad we did it”-activities which we won’t regret. Personally I think that traveling is so important not just with friends but with everybody because you get some great memories you’ll never forget with your friends and you can get to know other cities, beaches or mountains or wherever you wanna go. I completely agree to the saying “Travel is the only thing you can buy which makes you richer” because it is so true! Of course traveling costs a lot of money but the experiences you make will pay off every cent.
These are my goals for 2015 and I look forward to the end of this year to see which of them I achieved 🙂
Kisses A&K xxxx
Please tell us in the comments what your goals are for this year! 🙂

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow…
Hello my dear friends! ❤
When I woke up this morning, I could not believe my eyes.
You know this cute song for children? In German it goes: “Es schneit, es schneit, kommt alle aus dem Haus, die Welt, die Welt, sieht wie gepudert aus” ❤
It has started to snow! Snow is maybe the most beautiful thing, at least in wintertime. The little snowflakes are swirling around and this scene awakes the little child in everybody. So you know I can’t wait to go outside, taking pictures and playing in the snow. 🙂
But I had no chance until now, because it’s my father’s birthday today. I made the breakfast, and baked a cake ❤ For him, I would do everything. I love my father so hard, I am actually not able to put it into words. He’s always there for me.
This day, is somehow magical. I don’t know exactly why. Do you know this feeling, when you look out the window into the snow, thinking about old memories? For me this situation is perfect, when I’ve got a cup of hot chocolate and my favorite nail colour on my fingers ❤
What we got for Christmas!
Hey everyone 🙂
Merry Christmas, Fröhliche Weihnachten!
It doesn’t matter in which language you say this, it always sounds fantastic!
The most exiting time of the year is nearly at it’s end, and so we thought we should present you our Christmas presents.
Anna:
This year, I had no really big or extraordinary wishes, because actually I am very pleased 🙂 My parents, oh I love them so much and I am so thankful, try to buy me the things I need or wish during the whole year. 🙂
So after our huge dinner, I really felt pregnant, my tummy was really big :D, Santa brought me at first the NAKED 2 eyeshadow palette from Urban Decay. I have to admit that this was my only wish, because in every good-looking make-up tutorial, these eyeshadows are used. And because I really really like to try these tutorials on my own (or with my dear Kijana 😉 ) I put it on my wishlist.
So then, what I really did not expect, was the present of my brother (he’s 16). Maybe he had a good day or he was influenced by his girlfriend, but anyway, he bought a bag for me. You know, bags and me, it’s just a perfect composition. I LOVE them. My mother promised me another one, but I guess it will take very long 😉 So when I opened my present I was sooo freaking surprised. A Longchamp Bag. I saw it, and fell in love. This bag is just lovely. It is called “Le Pliage” and here you can find it 🙂
And my last little present was a body lotion and a body spray from Victoria’s Secret. I have to admit that I am totally addicted to this label. I ADORE it. And so, you probably can imagine how sad I am that there is no VS store in Germany. That’s why I spend my whole money in London this summer in the VS store.
I hope you really enjoyed you Chrismas days, like I did! xx
Kijana:
Like Anna I didn’t have big wishes because actually I’m pretty thankful that I have such amazing parents who buy me almost everything I want throughout the year 🙂
As usual I started opening the presents after dinner (which was great btw!). The first presents I opened were the ones from my parents :). Like Anna I wished for nothing in particular but I told my parents a while ago that I’d really like to have the Prada Candy perfume because tbh this perfume is the best I’ve ever smelled! So you can tell I’ve been pretty happy when I opened it 🙂 I got the 50ml one but I also got a cute little 7ml one you can see in the pictures underneath! I fell in love with both because the mini size is perfect for school or traveling 🙂
My second present I opened was also from my parents. It was a Nike pullover and seriously I love Nike! It’s my all time favorite brand because it’s so simple and modern and they also design the most comfortable shoes ever haha 🙂
The third present was the same size as the one where the Nike sweathsirt was in, so I already knew that this would be a sweater too. And guess what? It was! I got a black Adidas sweathshirt and it’s perfect for a day when I don’t want to wear something tight and want to keep it simple and comfy 🙂
These were the presents from my mom and dad 🙂
My brother then gave me a small parcel in which a gift set from The Body Shop was :). It has a cute little red sponge in it and a body lotion with strawberry flavor and also a shower gel in the same yummy flavor. He knows that I love The Body Shop because everything smells so good there and the fact that they don’t test their products on animals makes me like them even more 🙂
From my uncle I got a choker (like omg I wanted one for so so long and now I finally have one) and another cute lil bracelet 🙂 they both look so adorable and I fell in love with them once I saw them! He also got me a plain black t-shirt which sits perfectly and is pretty comfy! (sorry that I forgot to take a picture before putting it in the washer, but I am pretty sure that you al know how a black shirt looks :D)
I hope you had a great Christmas and enjoyed the time together with your loved ones 🙂
This was today’s post and we hope to welcome you at our blog soon ❤
