Back to Black

















Dress - House of Fraser
Jacket - Zara
Boots - Miss Selfridge

I seem to have completely vanished off the blogosphere lately, ahem thanks winter! where are the days going? I'm leaving the house in the morning in the dark and coming back home in the dark in the evening, sucks sucks sucks! Anyway, between school work (A-LEVELS WILL BE THE DEATH OF ME) working in the beautiful New Look and seeing friends, I've barely had any time free. however I spent the weekend at my grandmas so I thought I'd take the opportunity and grab some shots.
I've been shopping obsessively lately (Christmas jumpers are my addiction) let me know if you've found any cute ones, I NEED SOME MORE!
Hope you're all having a good weekend guys!

Skirt - H&M
Jacket - Zara
Shoes - Dorothy Perkins
Belt - Primark (diy studs)
I'm noticing my posts are becoming few and far between but the step from GCSE to A-LEVEL has left me with barely anytime between work friends and the boyfriend. But now I have settled in i promise i will make more effort! i also have great news... I HAVE A JOB AT NEW LOOK!!!! Im so escatic, the perfect job for me. I also turned 17 last week, which involved me getting lots of new clothes including this gorgeous quilted leather look jacket from Zara, it has beautiful gold zips and great detail... it goes with everything! I also got a beautiful ring off my boyfriend and the NUMBER 2 Ralph Lauren perfume, it smells beautiful. I still have money and vouchers left to spend as well so ill keep you updated on new purchases! Its been a great month meeting new people and settling in. But i promise my next post will be a lot closer. I did actually do a post but i lost the photos as my grandparents new dog chewed up the card they were on, booo.
Anyway enough of my excuses. Have a great week!

I have to apologise for the lack of photos on this post but Id been out five minutes and my camera died... oh dear my organisation skills are terrible!! Anyway I saw this skirt on another girls blog and I loved it but as she got it in the sale i thought no way could i get it now, but i walked into Zara the next day and there it was, shining beautifully down from £26 to £6 (BARGAIN OR WHAT!?)
So its been like agessssss since I did a post, oops. I haven't even been busy! The weathers just been so rubbish and I've spent a lot of time with my boyfriend it just hasn't crossed my mind. I'll be back to it now though, well I'm starting sixth form tomorrow so that might not be true, but I'll try! I got my GCSE results back and i am extremely happy with 3A*s 8As and 3Bs, hard work pays off! I hope you all got what you wanted, now for another 2 years of hard work.
Finally, my bench was miraculously covered by butterflies and it was so beautiful so I took some pictures and thought I'd share them to make up for the lack of outfit pics.

I am also now on the twitter hype, well I have been for sixth months, I just haven't been able to get the hang of it, feel free to tweet me, I'd be very grateful!! @KatieRussruss.

Hope everyone has a good first week back (if there is such a

So wales again, you wouldn't guess I lived in Shropshire! It was lovely again but there's no place like home. I wore this outfit out for a meal with my family, its surprisingly very versatile! The latest photo is of my best friends and me jumping off the jetty, it was so exhilarating!! I went to V FEST ON SUNDAY, IT WAS SOOO AMAZING! On my next post I will probably add some photos of me in my festival gear, woooo! I loved people watching and admiring everyones individual style, it was so inspirational! Did any of you go? Who did you see? We saw Emile Sande, Ed Sheeran, Example, Pro Green, Keane and Rizzle Kicks!
Exam Results on Thursday eeeeeek wish me luck!!!

Good luck to everyone who is receiving results on Thursday and I hope everyone who has recieved their A-Level results got what they hoped for.

simple-y bliss










Popped off to the beautiful country of wales for the weekend and what a stunning place! the weather was so hot so my legs looking nice and pale in these photos are now transformed into bronzed pins. Anyway, i decided i'd get my little sis to take some photos of me in my fave spot. its not quiet and tranquil yet so open and airy, it's great. home for a week then back up next sunday!
This dress was sisters last year but its so light and comfy i've adopted it this year!

Hope you've all enjoyed the sun!!
