The Belle Blog Award

Hey girls!

We have some exciting news for you...



We have been awarded "The Belle Blog" award!

Thank you so much to Morgan from What's Hawt and What's Nawt for nominating us for this award!
The Rules:
1. Write 3 facts about yourself
2. Answer questions the tagger asked you
3. Tag 3 other blogs
4. Ask 3 new questions for them
5. You can't tag the person who tagged you!


Kendall's Facts:

1. This is random, but right now I really want a pair of red sneakers!  I think it would be such a great accent for my outfits and add a nice pop of color.  I'm thinking of buying some from VANS or Converse.  (Or should I just wait until Christmas...?)
2. I dressed up as a sailor (at school) and Hello Kitty (at night) on Halloween.  My friend helped me make my sailor costume, but I bought the Hello Kitty one at a Halloween store.  Did any of you guys dress up?  If so leave a comment telling us who you were!
3. My favorite celebrity right now is Taylor Swift.  I absolutely adore her classy style and love her new album, "RED."  She's so different from a lot of other superstars and Taylor is a good role model and inspiration.  My favorite song on her album right now is "Begin Again."  

Tiana's Facts:

1. My current favorite colors for fall are raspberry and navy! Navy is such a classic color for everything and raspberry looks gorgeous on my nails. I recently bought a pair of raspberry-colored wedges- love them!
2. I recently acted in a television commercial, where I was their featured hair model advertising a new line of hair products. It will be broadcasted in Japan, China, Korea, and Singapore in the near future. I've also done two different magazine fashion ads in various parts of the world throughout this past year.
3. My nails are painted a pink and raspberry colored ombre, and my toes are painted a beautiful raspberry color with glittery silver and pink stripes- so cute!

Tagger's Questions:

(Morgan didn't leave any questions for us, so we just used the ones from her post).
1. Where do you see yourself in ten years?
K- Hopefully where I want to be!  Just like Tiana I want to be at an esteemed college studying medicine.  Maybe at that point I will be able to travel the world to places I've always dreamed of.  I wouldn't mind up-keeping this blog either.
T- I will be 23 years-old at that point, so I hope that I'll be at an exceptionally ranked university studying medicine, while furthering my career in music. I also hope to have a hobby with fashion and beauty too!
2. Do you prefer writing in a notebook or on the computer and why?
K- I like to keep personal notebooks; however I prefer typing on a computer just because it's so much faster.
T- In class, I get notes down much faster on a computer, but I love writing in a notebook because I like to color-code my notes, and I can doodle in it! :) When I'm writing stories, I prefer a computer because it's quicker and neater.
3. What's your favorite thing to write about on your blog?
K- My favorite thing to write about on our blog has to be either reviews or Polyvore posts.  I love to share my opinions on different products, and equally enjoy creating new ensembles of clothes on Polyvore.  :)
T- Honestly, I love writing everything on our blog! My absolute favorites would have to be tags with questions like the This or That Tag and the 25 Random Questions Tag that we've done on our blog before. They get me thinking about my interests and they're just really fun to do!


Our Questions:

1. What is your favorite fall trend?
2. If you could have one superpower what would you choose and why?
3. What is your favorite store and makeup product?  Why?



Nominations:


1. Hannah from Lights. Camera. Fashion.

2. Jackie from The Fashion It List

Liebster Blog Award

First of all, we apologize for not posting in awhile.  This past week our families went camping together.  And that meant no internet...don't worry, we survived.  ;)  Anyways, we had a ton of fun, but now we're ready to start posting again!


Without further ado, we are happy to announce that we've been nominated for the Liebster Award!
The wonderful Hannah from Lights. Camera. Fashion. awarded us.  Thank you so much Hannah!  She has been very kind to us from the very beginning of our blog.  :)



The Liebster award is awarded to bloggers who have less than 200 followers.  Liebster is German and it means sweetest, kindest, dearest, beloved, lovely, kind, pleasant, valued, cute, endearing, and welcome.

Rules:
• Each person must post 11 random facts about themselves to get to know the blogger.
• Answer the 11 questions that the person who awarded you posted to be answered.
• Choose 11 people to whom you want to award this.
• Tell them that you nominated them.
• And last, make up 11 questions for the next person to answer.

11 Random Facts About Kendall:
1. My favorite magazine is Seventeen.  Every issue is so fun to read, and I look forward to receiving it in the mail.  I learn something new in every edition!
2. This summer I volunteered at the library with my friend, and later I will be helping out at an elementary school.
3. I prefer shorts over jeans.  Jeans go with just about anything, but they can get too hot!  Shorts on the other hand are stylish, comfortable, and don't make my legs catch on fire.
4. My favorite actress/famous person is Shay Mitchell!  I love watching her on Pretty Little Liars, and absolutely adore her style as well.
5. One of my all-time favorite book series is "The Summer Series" by Jenny Han.  Her series is made up of three wonderful books including: "The Summer I Turned Pretty", "It's Not Summer Without You", and "We'll Always Have Summer."  I am obsessed with these books!
6. My favorite summer treat is ice cream!  It tastes so delicious- especially on a hot day.  I like pretty much any flavor.  :)
7. Right now my nails are painted cute little pastel-colored cupcakes.  I followed missglamorazzi's tutorial on how to make this simple and cute design. 
8. This morning I ate bread with Nutella spread on top.  I have been loving Nutella- so yummy!  I can't believe that it's considered healthy because it tastes so good!
9. Today I am wearing PINK Fresh & Clean Body Mist by Victoria's Secret.  This scent is so light and it smells great.  I wear it so often!
10. I can't wait until the iPhone 5 comes out!  Hopefully I will get it for my birthday or for Christmas.  If not, I'll just have to buy it myself. 
11. I love playing cards.  During summer school my friends and I would sit down between classes and play a bunch of card games.  My favorite is Egyptian War.  :)

11 Random Facts About Tiana:
1. A few of my favorite Youtubers are Macbarbie07, missglamorazzi, freshblush, and bubzbeauty. All of their videos are so informative and fun to watch!
2. I love red velvet cupcakes! (Especially with cream cheese frosting!) Even though they're just chocolate with red food coloring, I think is tastes better than plain chocolate. 
3. My favorite summer colors are mint, coral, and turquoise! They're all so pretty and make me happy.
4. Some of my favorite nail polishes are China Glaze "For Audrey," "Ruby Pumps," Essie's "Bikini So Teeny," and O.P.I's "Lunch at the Delhi."
5. My mom is a teacher at an elementary school (Kendall and I are going to help there for community service this summer.) My dad is a physician (he's a radiologist.)
6. I am extremely involved in music. I play the flute, piano, harp, and guitar. 
7. I am a teen model as well as a beauty queen. I started modeling in sixth grade and I won my first pageant in seventh. Throughout the experience, I have gained so much confidence and have met so many amazing friends. I've also learned a lot about beauty and fashion along the way!
8. Some of my favorite scents are "Be Enchanted" and "Warm Vanilla Sugar" from Bath and Body Works, and "Vanilla Lace" and "Ravishing Love" from Victoria's Secret's Garden Collection.
9. My current favorite book series is "Pretty Little Liars" by Sara Shepard. I can read those books over and over and not get tired of them! My favorite series as a young child was "The Boxcar Children."

Laine Blogger Award

We have recently been nominated for the Laine Blogger Award!  

Thank you so much to Jackie from The Fashion It List for nominating us.  She let us pick which award we wanted to receive out of three, and we decided on this one.  This is our first award, so we are extremely grateful and excited to be nominated.



Now, onto the award! 

LAINE BLOGGER AWARD

Rules:
1. Tag the blogger who awarded you.
2. Award five more bloggers.
3. Answer a few questions (below).

Questions & Answers:

1. What is your current beauty obsession? 
K- I love Essie nail polish!  All of their colors are so cute and the results are great.  Durable too!  Essie has to be my favorite brand of nail polish.
T- Right now, I really like tinted lip balms! (Especially Maybelline Baby Lips!) They're moisturizing, but still add some fun color.

2. What is one beauty item that you wished you owned?
K- I really want to try out the Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette.  So many bloggers and Youtubers have been talking about it!
T- Haha, there's too many! I would really like the Urban Decay Naked or Naked 2 Palette. I am also interested in the Too Faced Natural Eye Palette.

3.  What kind of posts are your favorite to read and write? 
K- This is a hard question because I like so many!  However, I especially like tutorials and DIY posts.  They're so fun to read and try out.  :)
T- All of them! :) If I had to choose, I would probably say reviews. They're so helpful!

4. What inspired you to become a blogger?
K- A mixture of reasons, but especially Youtube.  I love watching fashion and beauty videos from multiple channels on my free time.  Another reason was Tiana- we are interested in pretty much all the same stuff!  Since I like fashion and shopping I wanted to share my style with others.  In fewer words, I just got more interested in girly things.  :P
T- Basically, the fashion and beauty industry inspired me to become one! Along with other bloggers and youtubers. I've always loved reading magazines, blogs, and watching youtube videos, so I thought, why don't I start my own with a friend who's as into this stuff as I am!

5. What color nail polish are you wearing right now? 
K- I'm currently wearing my favorite color, coral!  I just painted my nails a pretty coral pink and finished the look off with a glittery top coat.  Both are Essie products.
T- I'm currently rocking the ombre nail look. I used a light peach and a bright coral.

Nominees
It was hard to choose just five, but we finally decided on some of our favorite blogs and bloggers.  The following have been extra nice to us, and we adore their blogs as well.  
Thank you!
