Both of them mean 'you', but あなた(anata) is more polite than きみ(kimi). Usually we use 'anata' to people who are not close with you, in letters and poems, in business and official situation, and the wives call often their husband "anata". "Kimi" is not common in daily conversation. It sounds little bit rude or too intimate. You can use "kimi" only to people who are younger than you or people who are very close with you.
We Japanese usually use his/her name to talk to someone, it's not frequent to use "you"...
