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 [...]

The Friday Pretty: Crushes Of The Week
Hola, babies! It’s Friday and it’s time to get your perv on. I feel we’re all extra deserving of the hawtness this week, as we’ve been battling through some truly shiteous weather for the last week. The only place I like ice is in my drinks, but nature has seen fit to put that ish [...]

The Friday Pretty: Scorpios
For one week only, the most important day of the week isn’t Friday. I know. I know how shocking that must seem for Friday Pretty aficionados like your good selves. But! It’s my birthday tomorrow – I’m 28, bishes! I’m very much a multi-tasker, so I didn’t have to look far to find a unifying theme for [...]

The Friday Pretty: Beardy Weirdies
Happy Friday, chirrun! It’s November, it’s windy and cold and if we’re honest, a lot of us are growing out our hair. And I don’t just mean the hair on our heads. Come on, we’re at the beginning stages of what will eventually become luxuriant braid-able leg hair, amirite? In that spirit, today’s Friday Pretty [...]

The Friday Pretty: Crushes of the Week
This week’s Friday Pretty is a personal ode to my various pervs this week. The theme is loose, sure, but the pretty, like The Force™, is strong. Happy Friday! First up, soon to be Spiderman, and owner of the most bouffant hair I’ve ever lusted after. It’s Andrew Garfield:

The Friday Pretty: Nigeria is 50 Edition
Wazobia! Welcome, friends. Today marks the 50th anniversary of Nigeria’s independence – Happy Birthday to us! Accordingly, we will try to celebrate in all possible ways.

The Friday Pretty: Silver Foxes
The old Girl Scout song has the lyrics as: “Make new friends/but keep the old, One is silver/the other is gold.” Here at YGD, we try not to be prejudiced against any precious metals, so we’re going to make a bold statement. Silver is JUST AS GOOD as gold. Maybe even better. I know, controversial. [...]

The Friday Pretty: Best Of British
I beg your forgiveness, readers. Last week, in the throes of a ridiculously busy Friday, I realised my error – I did not post a Friday Pretty! Thankfully, you guys aren’t backwards in coming forwards and a few hurt, upset and frankly bewildered emails came through. Please feel free to blame Virgin Media, who reneged [...]

The Friday Pretty: Vintage
I’ve always wondered: at what point in time does ‘second hand’ become ‘vintage’? All the clothes that were referred to as second hand when I was child suddenly had a PR moment and became ‘vintage’. Even weirder, some brand new clothes are now also being tagged as vintage too. Eh? Truth be told though it really doesn’t matter, [...]

The Friday Pretty: Music Dudes Edition
Given the ovewhelming feedback following last week’s inaugural The Friday Pretty, it would have been remiss of me not to give the people what they want. And so, here we are. I’ve given the format some thought – clearly there will be hot dudes frolicking on your screen every Friday, but being a kinda logical [...]

In Which YorubaGirl Goes To An Army Ball
I have a sort-of ‘Bucket List’. You know, things I’d like to do before I kick the metaphorical bucket. It’s not heavily defined, in as much as it isn’t written down anywhere. I guess you could call it more of a Bucket List mentality. It means that if there’s something I have never thought of [...]
