Hola, beautiful people! It’s Friday, it’s pretty and a little pervy – IT’S THE FRIDAY PRETTY! Hope you’re all doing swell. It’s been one of those weeks around these parts – mass production of snot, nosebleeds, aches, pains, a stupidly busy week at work and still no sign of John Cho to whisk TFP away [...]

The Friday Pretty: Crushes of the Week
The Friday Pretty: Sci-Fi/Cult Dudes
*SIGH* Look. I could spend this entire post apologising for the quietness on the blog these past few weeks. Or I could just say it once and mean it and get on with the show. I’M SORRY. I have been battling a combination of extreme busyness (in work and life in general), my insomnia has [...]
The Friday Pretty: ‘Justin Time’ Edition
TFP‘s favourite French word – after charcuterie – is Vendredi. You know why? It means Friday i.e. the official start of ‘Le Weekend’ as well as the designated day for perving. Let’s not be coy – Friday is when TFP comes alive. Hopefully, today’s selection will perk you up too. Strap in, lovelies, for it’s [...]
The Friday Pretty: Crushes of the Week
Harambee brothers and sisters! How are you all doing? Are you well? Are you fed? Are you warm? Praises! It’s Friday, you know. I’d like to apologise unreservedly for last week’s no-show – blame extra work and extra tiredness. But be assured that even during the quiet weeks, when the hot dudes are thin on [...]
The Friday Pretty: The ‘Did The Earth Move For You Too?’ Edition
Sweet lord, it’s Friday. Finally, Friday! DID YOU HEAR ME? IT’S FRIDAY! Hope you’re all good, fully recovered from last week’s extravaganza (which, by the way, has claimed the title for the most-viewed The Friday Pretty post Of. All. Time. You dirty perving buggers.) Today’s TFP title is inspired by the earthquake that hit the [...]
Oh, hell no!*
*I want you all to imagine that in the sharp tones of authoress Ms Maya Wilkes (played by actress Golden Brooks in much-missed sitcom Girlfriends) Tuesday afternoon’s rain brought with it a thick fug of wild rumours of the demise of the relationship between Will Smith and Jada Pinkett. (And of course, the firm assurances [...]
The Friday Pretty: All Black Everything
*Rebecca Black voice* FRIDAY, FRIDAY, GOTTA GET DOWN ON FRIDAY… Don’t act surprised – TFP will take Fridays any way it can. How are you all doing? Hope the week’s been smooth sailing for you. TFP had a good week: an offer of work – woot! – a catch up with friends and even time [...]
The Friday Pretty: The “Are you tired? Cos you’ve been running through my mind all day!” Edition
Blessed Friday: it’s so good to see you! Phew. It’s been a bit of a weird week here in the UK, what with the pesky business of civil unrest, so if you don’t mind, we’re just going to launch into TFP with minimal preamble. If anyone deserves some tasty man-candy, it’s you pervs. Let’s not [...]
The Friday Pretty: Crushes of the Week
Happy Friday, ladies and gentlemen! Can you believe it’s August? Soon, the days will shorten, and we will usher in autumn. Although, bearing in mind the mild summer we’ve had here in the UK (this past week notwithstanding), things shouldn’t be so different. Still, let’s heat things up with a new edition of The Friday [...]
The Friday Pretty: Pretty Boys of the Week
FRIDAY KLAXON. Alright. A lot happened this week, news-wise. But it will do us no good to rehash the bad news here, so I won’t, cherubs. I will say that it was also the week in which one of my dearest friends got married (CONGRATS, S!), so there was some light at the end of [...]
Why I Love… Awkward Black Girl
Do you harbour fantasies of being the greatest dancer at the party even though all evidence suggests otherwise? Do you stare at your co-workers, incredulous, because you have no idea how to connet with such cretins? Do you hate your boss, but channel your work-based rage into offensive gangsta rap lyrics? Do you often find [...]
The Friday Pretty: Murdochalypse Edition
It’s Friday, bishes! D’you like what I did with today’s title? No? WELL, I WAS TRYING TO BE TOPICAL, DAMMIT. Unless you’ve been living under a rock with no HDTV enabled, you’ll have been glued to your telly/wireless radio/t’internet connection, riveted by the unfolding select committee hearings at the House of Commons. Remember? Rupert Murdoch [...]
The Friday Pretty: St Swithin’s Day Special
“It’s been a long time/I shouldn’t have left you/without a dope beat to step to…” HAPPY FRIDAY, CHERUBS! It’s the first TFP since my glorious return to the blogosphere. Yes, I used the hateful word ‘blogosphere’ but my intention is true: I am bringing sexy back! If you’re looking to begin the weekend with a [...]
The Friday Pretty: Crushes of the Week
Hello, fellow Beauty Appreciators! I hope you’re all well – eating delicious meals, wearing gorgeous apparel and lounging about in life-giving sunshine at the start of this, the second four-day weekend of the year – thanks, Will and Kate! Incidentally, that will be the sole reference to the royal wedding on this here site; consider [...]
The Friday Pretty: Good Friday Edition
Hola, children! How’s life? If you’re in London, you’ll have been enjoying the fabulous weather – I myself wandered out of the house bare legged the other day, revealing my hairy legs to the world for only the second time this year. BTW, I spun this particular act of forgetfulness as a feminist protest: if [...]
