Fun Facts:
1. What's the one moment that made you obsessed with style?
"When I was a little kid I always wanted to be a princess, so I begged my mum to take me to the "Disney Shop" to get me cute dresses! Ever since, I was obsessed with fashion. When I was 11 I realized that by having a nice style you can boost your confidence. So now I spend at least 20 minutes every day in front of my wardrobe."
-Anja
"I love mom jeans and graphic shirts so much! But I also enjoy making myself look cute by wearing a dress or a skirt. Honestly, I don't care if my clothes are from Adidas, Tommy Hilfiger or the thrift store as long as I love what I'm wearing and it's affordable. Usually I get my inspiration from Instagram posts or from people who I see in public, like when I take the bus to school."
-Anja
"My mum is always the one who takes pictures of me. A photoshoot usually takes between 5-10 minutes. But if I don't feel 100% comfortable with what I'm wearing or with the way I look, a photoshoot can last until my mum has no more nerves left and wants to go home. [laughs]"
-Anja
4. What's your go-to outfit when you're in a rush?
"When I'm in a rush, I tend to just grab some mom-jeans, a graphic t-shirt and some colorful socks. I round things up with a belt, a star necklace and two bracelets, and I pair my outfit with my black slip-on Vans and a puffer jacket."
-Anja
"The best advice I've been given was from my mum. She said that overthinking everything just makes things worse. I should accept failure and just move on. Life would be boring if everything is perfect, right?"
-Anja
"My favorite clothing item is my graphic T-shirt 'Chill Since 1993' that has a dinosaur on a motorcycle on it from Brandy Melville."
-Anja
7. What's one thing you want everyone to know about you?
"That I'm a very open minded person. Sometimes I'm afraid of getting judged by people when I tell them something personal about me. Therefore, I want to make sure everyone knows that you can talk to me about anything!"
-Anja
"Consistency is very important. Try to post as often as you can because once you stop posting for a few weeks people will start losing interest in you. Also be sure to connect with your followers by asking them questions or for advice."
-Anja
"In the morning, I wash my face and put on moisturizer from my local pharmacy (they mix it themselves) on my face. At night, I wash all my makeup off with a cleansing milk from L'Oréal. Then I rub my face with the anti-pimple cleansing gel from Garnier, and then I use the Relaxing Night Cream moisturizer from Bebe."
-Anja
10. What is your go-to makeup look? (Include brands! too!)
"For my makeup, I do my eyebrows with a brow pencil from Isadora, and my eyelashes with mascara from 4ever Young. If I feel a little extra I might go for some highlight from the Marvycorn palette by BH Cosmetics."
