Hello lovelies! The weather has been gorgeous these past 2 days, it's put me in such a good mood! How are you all this weekend? I'm supposed to be in Egypt right? My mum screwed up big time.. She forgot to check if my passport was actually in date, to find it wasn't. Nice one. So, my mums in Egypt and I'm in the 'beautiful' England. Yay.. But, on the plus side of it, it means that i can go into school to get more revision done, which will work out better in the long run. Pretty gutted!

Anyway...
I've been shopping today! Got some rather beaut' things! Check them out:
Denim dress - £11
Nautical Skirt - £5
Plaid checked shirt - £2, was £10
Floral vest - £2.50
Pumps - £3.00
Belt in the style of Cheryl Cole - £3.00 (i hate Cheryl Cole but love this belt)
Pendant necklaces - £1.50 each
Don't you just love it when your camera runs out of battery and you cant find the charger so you have to use your phone? Sorry for the shit quality guys. I love the denim dress, and DAAAAAAAYMN the necklaces! This is a first for Primark! They look exactly like the ones in Accessorize. I'd grab them quick if i were you, because trust me, they will soon be gone.
Hit Primark NOW. Seriously. Now!

This will be my last post until i come back from Egypt! I go to Egypt on Tuesday for 2 weeks, so will be back posting on Wednesday 20th April. Hopefully! Happy Easter! I mean, i don't celebrate it, the true meaning of Easter Sunday for me is chocolate and a nice lay in, but that's just me. I forgot it was Easter until my boyfriend Jack rang me up at about 1.30, then I was like SHIT i need to eat my eggs! I'm very sorry for the complete lack of effort that's gone into my blog lately, i feel like ive let it down haha! But, when i'm back from Egypt, i'll be doing a new layout and basically a re-opening, possibly with a giveaway if i manage to get 50 followers before the 20th April! Which means that you lovely people better get clicking away at the followers button ;D I might bring something back from Egypt, or go buy something from Topshop etc. I also had my haircut this week. I personally prefer it short, but my sister's wedding is at the end of May so i have to grow it so i dont look like a complete man in a pink dress haha! It's slowly getting longer, but then as soon as the wedding is over, i'm planning on going Frankie a la Saturdays again, and henna'ing it purpley/reddy/brown :] I've kinda gone for a 'Emily Fitch' from skins.. A fringe but slowly getting longer.. Who knows what it likes to do with itself anyway(sorry for the SUPER gay picture)
I'm seriously going to miss blogging for 2 weeks, but then i think.. i should really get a life. I'll take lots of pictures, and hope that you all have a fabulous Easter break (for those of you who are in Y11, have a GREAT TIME AT EASTER SCHOOL hahahahaha)!
Remember to follow me! All comments will be replied to when i'm back from Egypt, so please do remember to comment, it will be returned in time :)
Lots of love,
Ruth xoxo
Working at 8am tomorrow.. how nice would a lie in be? Yesterday me and Iqrash went shopping to get Matt some clothes. I think we spent about £130 of his money, which isn't too bad! It was so nice to shop for guys, girls clothes can get so.. boring after a while. I managed to pick a few things up though, i mean, who can go shopping with money and not buy anything? My mum, apparently. Here's what i picked up.. Labels: Fashion, Highstreet, My life, My outfits
Primark floral dress - £5
Guess where these beauties are from? River Island? Nope! Right, you know that kinda shitty shop.. called Shoe Zone? Like Jonothan James? I saw them in there! For £25! And HAD to have them! There pretty much identical to the River Island workers!
Primark playsuit - £5 (i might take this back and exchange it for something else)
I've lusted over these for about a month, and finally bought them. There from H&M, and cost me £15, not bad i think! They look so expensive, and are definitely one of my best buys for this summer!
I'm totally in love with shoes.. might have bought 7 pairs in the past week.. It's not an addiction, okay!
A huge thankyou to the 39 followers that i have somehow gained! 11 more and i can finally do a giveaway!
"If you can't find love in shopping, your obviously shopping in the wrong places."
Alright, if you could do online slaps, i totally deserve one. I'm a shit blogger to be honest haha! Like most of the 15-16year old's in Britain are working REALLY hard, well, or should be (like myself..). It's all a bit crazy with exams, revision, and most teachers basically coming at you with knives. It's not fun at all. Okay, there goes my excuse of an apology!

LEEDS FESTIVAL! LEEDS FESTIVAL! LEEDS FESTIVAL! LEEDS FESTIVAL!
WHO ELSE IS GOING TO LEEDS FEST?! Me and Katie spent about 3 hours on all the stupid websites trying to buy tickets, and it seemed like everyone apart from us had tickets! A lovely girl who lives round my corner called Lauren had a spare order form up on her computer, so i ran round to hers in my PJ's (sexy i know) with my mums credit card, probably looking a little bit mental. I'm so exited! We got the early bird tickets, and the weekend! GAAAAAAAH!
Alright now the bit that your probably arsed about; Shopping :) I'm going to Egypt in a week! Which means no blogging for 2 weeks, but it does mean an AWESOME tan. Summer's coming sooner and sooner, so i thought a shopping trip was in order. And when i say shopping, i mean SHOPPING. Here are the new loves of my life..
For those who know me personally, you'll know where the majority of these are from. Guess? And how much would you say i spent?
How fuckin sexy is that bag?
Primark, £187.22
Not bad in my opinion
Will be replying soon!
xoxo
P.s, great giveaway at heartshapedbruise, check it out!

"If infinity goes on forever, how much is infinity? Infinity minus one is still infinity. Infinity minus infinity is still infinity, because infinity isn't a number. Then there's minus infinity.."
This is what my maths teacher told me. And it's screwed my brain up. -.-'
Sorry that i haven't posted since Friday! I've been doing MAJOR art commitment. My first 5 hours of my exam starts on Wednesday, in other words.. fuck. On Saturday me and my friend Holly went shopping for a wedding dress. Haha, no, we're not getting married.. she needed it for her art project. We managed to pick one up for £20 which is good - it's kinda victorian vintagey style, it's cute, and we tried it on.. it's not too nice on though haha! Of corse if we're in charity shops, i had to take money. And might of spent a mear £16.50.. but definately worth it. If you read my blog often or are one of my close friends, you will understand that i dont pay more than a fiver for anything, it's too hard. So here's a few things of what i got.. Labels: Fashion, Highstreet, My life, My outfits
Blurred faces = murdererThe first is a velvet midnight bluey-purple velvet top, i think it's vintage.. either that or really old. I love it! - £1.50, can't go wrong really
Then we have the Monsoon velvet black and gold striped crop top, which i got for £1.75 :)
And Topshop jeans, for £2.00
Last, a gorrgeous Topshop silky dress, for £2.50!
Everything was so cheap because there was a half price sale! The best thing EVER! I got more things too, a couple of River Island tops, a granny lace dress which im going to shorten and jazz up a bit.
Is anyone else as bad as me that they refuse to pay lots of money for things? Hope your all well :) xxxxx
P.s, check out Magpie-girl's giveaway! Its great, she has a beautiful blog too
Hey guys! Isn't the sky lovely tonight if your in England? Okay so i got like really bored with my old layout, so here we have a spankin' new layout featuring Ms. Allen (the most gorgeous girl ever ever ever). What do you think? I have the old layout saved, so i can swap back if most people prefer the other! :) Labels: Fashion, Highstreet, My life, My outfits
So i don't often post pictures of my outfits, but today i wore my boots again, and do you ever have that feeling where you feel ''YES, i have boots on YES im taller than you, YES i feel like a badass''? Yeah, i had that today, so thought i'd share my gossip girl wannabe outfit with you all. Also, my face is blurred because i look like a murder without the lovely pixels helping me out.
So we have the £1 topshop jeans from a carboot sale, the £10.50 boots reduced from £45 (which KILL but i still wanna wear them..), vintage pearls passed down my family, charity shop blazer originally from Marks and Spencer which i got for £4.99, H&M nude shirt which i got for £3 but was originally £15. Basically, all of my clothes are reduced and cheap aha!!
Well, I'm off to a party, should be posting tomorrow :)
Have an amazing Friday night! xxxx
Happy Saturday.. verging on Sunday aha! How are you all? Okay so, if any of you remembered my post on Bumbags? (if you havent seen it, check it out here) No-one seemed to keen?
