To become a SKY Girl, you need to take the pledge to stay true to yourself;

SKY PLEDGE I pledge to be true to myself and what I believe in To be who I am not who someone else thinks I should be I’ll hold tight to the things I’m all about – like friends and dancing. And I’ll stay away from yawa things I know I’m good without – like backstabbing and smoking Because knowing what’s my thing and what’s not my thing helps make me who I am. I will make choices that are true to me I pledge to find my SKY Hit us up on FB or IG and let us know you’ve taken the pledge and joined the movement!

NEW YEAR RESOLUTION


GIRL,

UNINTERRUPTED 1. Hey Afua Rida, Can you introduce yourself to the SKY Nation? I am a Ghanaian fashion blogger, fashion stylist and consultant. 2. You started out as an actress, but now you seem to be completely involved in fashion. Tell us how that started for you. While studying in Montreal, Canada, my love for fashion grew. I started to volunteer and work in the industry until I settled in the styling sector. I decided to start my company then later focused on working with some of my favourite fashion brands. 3. You do so many things like blogging, styling and modeling. What’s a regular day like for you? Often mistaken, I am not a model but a fashion blogger which means I show off the clothes I love. A regular day usually consists of meetings with clients, planning projects, and then actually doing these projects. My favourites are doing photo shoots and producing fashion shows!

4. Your Instagram feed is so cool, what inspires the kind of posts you put up?

Hi girls! Fashion can be a lot of fun to play with. There is so much out there especially on social media. I encourage you to define what your fashion style is. Find what you love the most and go with that. Don’t try to fit in because you think that is what is safe or what everyone is doing. Be you as much as possible.

5. So what are your plans for the new year, and how will you plan to stick by them? My plan is to always make plans! Make lots and lots of lists with deadlines to them. I want to up my game and challenge myself. 6. So what’s your thing and not your thing? Hahaha very general question. Positivity is my thing. It is important to bless people with good vibes no matter where you go. It is hard sometimes, but we have to try. No judgments on people and to forgive easily. I believe that there is room for everyone to succeed and so we shouldn’t block the blessings of others. Not my thing? Trying to fit in. You can easily know when someone is being authentic and when someone is faking it. There’s so much pressure for our young girls nowadays but there is beauty in being true to who you are!

GIRL UNINTERRUPTED

My number one goal is to play my part in the African fashion industry. Since there aren’t too many media platforms to showcase what Ghana and Africa can do fashion-wise, my dream is to bridge the gap between those who design and make the clothes with those who buy the clothes, and then finally spread this out to the rest of the world. The best way for me to tell this story is through my personal style. I wear the clothes I love, and inspire trends and styles.

7. What would you like to say to all the SKY Girls who love fashion and look up to you?

KNOCK THE OUT GOAL KEEPERS

Seems like New Year was only yesterday, but here we are, already past the first month of the year and it feels like all the mystery and excitement has fizzled out. Most of us can only vaguely remember the resolutions and dreams we started the year with…whether it was the desire to gain admission to the senior high school/university of your choice, get fit, or spend more time with the bestie. At the heart of it all, it’s never too late to take the opportunity to improve yourself!

So whether you set New Year resolutions or not, have completely forgotten about them or are religiously sticking to them, here are a few tips you can use to achieve those goals: GO HARD AT IT NOW! - Research says new habits can be formed within 1-2 months, so if your goal is to get fitter, make sure you make a plan and stick to it for 2 months. Doesn’t seem so bad now, does it! After that, you’ll be so used to it you won’t even think about it. SHOUT IT OUT TO THE WHOLE WORLD - Don’t just write your goals down quietly. Announce them to your family and friends you trust. It makes you more accountable not only to yourself but to everybody else that matters to you too. With that, you will have a whole cheerleading team behind you and you will undoubtedly encourage them too as they watch your journey of success. REMINDER MEMOS - Make copies of your resolution to hang in your room. The more reminders, the better. POSITIVE VIBES ONLY – Lastly, make sure you have a positive and winning mindset. Have an inner conviction that anything is possible to achieve. Positive thinking can improve your confidence and overall mood. Surround yourself with go-getters like you, that way you will affect each other with only good vibes and energy. Don’t be too hard on yourself if you miss your resolution once or twice. Just keep at it and watch all your goals get accomplished.

It’s a new year and sometimes when we feel a little down, all we need is a little SKY-inspiration! Here are some of our favourite people both at home and abroad, and what keeps them going all day errday! Ginger yourself with these quotes and let’s take on the world!

One of the lessons that I grew up with was to always stay true to yourself and never let what somebody else says distract you from your goals. And so when I hear about negative and false attacks, I really don’t invest any energy in them, because I know who I am.

-Michelle Obama

You’ll be too much for some people. Those aren’t your people.

-Yvonne Nelson

Everyone is not supposed to be the same.

-Oprah Winfrey

Doing what I love, and seeing the world change around me for the better. That, for me, is the real definition of success

We just wanted to show appreciation for the likes, comments, shares, DMs and the pictures you tag us in. In the month of November, IreneRapheal Eyram Gnorsibia emerged as the most interactive person on our page. She won herself a ride and lunch date with Yaa Yaa!

This is how she recounts her experience:

IRENE - I couldn’t stop screaming when I checked the SKY Girls page on Instagram and realized I was the Star Girl for the month of November. I was just too happy. I love commenting on SKY posts and helping out with SKY advice – I mean, it’s all about the sisterhood! I won a ride and a lunch date with Ghana’s recording artiste, songwriter and actress Yaa Yaa, who I later got to know is actually called Bertha Bridget Kankam. I just couldn’t wait to meet her in person. I’ve always wanted to hang out with a celebrity!

Fast forward to when I met her. Oh my, such an awesome personality, nothing short of what I expected. The ride to our lunch date was super fun! We took unlimited selfies and snaps in the car. You can tell she’s a SKY Sister, she’s so confident and knows her style! The driver was also kind enough to play our favourite songs so we had our own karaoke the whole time. Then we had lunch at Coco Lounge.

Everything on the food menu looked appetizing which made it difficult to choose. But you can be sure I ate right from appetizer to the main course to dessert. We had an inspiring conversation where she told me how important it was to know who you are and sticking to that regardless of talent or popularity, especially in an industry like hers. It was truly a memorable day for me. Thank you SKY Girls!

Yo SKY Girls! Your support for our sistahood has been massive, and you girls have been nothing short of awesome! So many of you have come on board with the SKY movement, with more than 15,000 of you pledging to be true to yourselves. Part of being a SKY Girl is knowing what you love, and knowing what you know you’re good without in your life, so when you take the pledge, we ask you tell us what’s your thing and what’s not your thing. It’s not about conforming to what other people think, but about knowing what is true to YOU and supporting your friends in knowing what is true to them too. Check this out. Here’s what 15,000 SKY Girls had to say!

SO SKY Soooo many of you said singing is your thing! And we no really shock like that lol. Whether your voice is super smooth or froggy like some of us, here’s all the reasons singing is a great pastime!

SO SKY

You know when” rewind” or “run the world” starts to play and your inner MzVee or Beyoncé comes alive? Chaleee the hype! It’s because singing makes us happy. It improves our mood and refreshes us all around. Even better when you snap it with that flower filter lol. You can look back and laugh at that time you thought you were a superstar. You barb?

Friendship is totally bae! And there’s nothing quite as fun as singing or rapping with your friends when your favourite song comes on. Whether it’s singing in the choir or doing karaoke, it’s a great way to strengthen the bonds you share with them and it keeps that friendship tight! So let’s get down!

The feeling you have after a good singing session is awesome. You become super energized! Apparently, it’s a great workout as your lung muscles are been exercised and this improves your breathing. Imagine doing something so fun and gaining health benefits at the same time! We’re so in!

#1 – SMOKING

We’re a sistahood full of diversity, which is awesome! There are lots of things that y’all said are not your thing, but the one thing that kept coming up was smoking! That’s so great because we’re all about being bold enough to say ‘NO’ to the things that don’t help us. Check out why it’s so much cooler to turn down that cigarette or shisha! Your mind go bust!

We all know that smoking is bad for our lungs and risks causing cancer. But what about other physical effects? Smoking leaves you with darkened lips, pale skin and that lingering smell! Gosh! Ain’t nobody got time for that! And hey, the boys tell us they hate it too, it’s sooo unattractive. Next time somebody offers you a cigarette or shisha, remember you’re already slaying without that in your life.

Us SKY Girls are not about that yawa life! We like to look good and feel good and want to make the most of this amazing life! Each time you smoke shisha or cigarettes, you cut down your expected life span by 11 minutes. And because of all the chemicals in them they are addictive - once you’ve had one, you will have another and so on. Slowly, you will be with no life! How sad? While the tobacco companies only get richer. So the best thing is to never try it. Or if you’ve tried it before, to never have another.

SO NOT SKY

SO NOT SKY

You said it! Smoking is so not cool. This includes shisha, which some people think is less harmful than cigarettes but it’s still tobacco and just as bad for you! Save yourself the wahala girl, you don’t need it to have a good time!


ADVICE Dear SKY, I am confused whether I should end my relationship with my boyfriend or not. There’s nothing wrong in my relationship as most will think but around it rather. People are so concerned about it and keep gossiping about it. They don’t like the idea that the Girls’ Prefect of the school is in a relationship. I’m really bothered about it, I don’t like people talking about me. I just turned 17 last month. Do you even think it’s okay to have a boyfriend at my age?

Dear SKY, My best friend told me that I like making boys think I like them when I don’t. There’s this boy in form 2 who thinks I like him because of the way I play with him, but I don’t. He wrote a letter telling me he loves me, I’m the type that doesn’t like to see people hurt. I want a very simple way of telling him I don’t like him in a gentle way in order not to hurt him.

Who’s your Red roses, chocolates, surprises, dinner dates, sweet scented candles, romance and love are the ABC’s of Val’s Day. Few days are as memorable in high school as Val’s Day. It’s always one of those days when some girls seem to get lots of attention because of the kind of gifts they received and it was possibly a tough time for others. If you are not into the whole Val’s Day thing, then you might not have been so stoked about it, while others were so hyped at the thought of spending a romantic date with their boyfriend. But whichever ca mp you fell in, you can choose to look at it going forward as a good opportunity to make the day your own kind of special! If you were boyfriend-less, it might’ve sucked to watch your lovesick classmates receive the big ha mpers and chocolates and flowers. But hey sis, forgerrit, you’re awesome whether you’re single or not! Having a boyfriend shouldn’t define us, so we don’t need to couple up just for the sake of “having someone”.

Here’s an idea if you’re single next year - get your girls together and hang out with them! Or grab a pizza and that movie you’ve been itching to watch and ride solo!! If you did have someone special to spend the day with, go you! Hopefully, it was a perfect time to let them know how much they mean to you. However, quick word of advice: whether it’s Val’s Day or not, try not to get carried away by the moment. Be sure to make decisions that are right for you. After all, love isn’t just shown in one grand gesture on one day of the year! So, if you got a present for someone else, awesome! On the other hand, if you did gnash, own it! After all, even the ‘ma tricki wo’ girls are unbothered lol. So chill and just do Y OU!

SKY 1. It’s great to have you! So can we know more about the famous Kidi? Kidi is just an ordinary guy who just knows how to sing. I am also a very shy boy but most people don’t believe that. I just like to be in my corner and avoid trouble 2. What inspires you to reach for more? The fact that I am human. Humans are never satisfied. You can pray for something and put in the hard work, and when you get it for a while, you realize that you need more. My family also inspires me too. I want to give every one of them the best life they deserve.

VIBE WITH

This is a very tough question! I want to be involved in more collaborations and increase my audience reach from Ghana to Africa and from Africa to the world. 4. Share your mantra for life with us. No matter what you do, people will always have an opinion. So personally, I have decided to do what makes me happy and hope it rubs off on other people so they are also happy.

3. What are you going to do differently in this New Year that you were not doing before?

5. What’s your thing and What’s not your thing? My thing is obviously music and smoking is totally a no-no for me. I hate the smell. 6. You seem to have a lot of crushes, who is your kinda girl? I’m a shy guy, so someone who talks a lot isn’t personally for me. I like honest girls who take your feelings into consideration when telling you something, because that’s how I am so I want somebody who is like that too. A God-fearing girl and spontaneous. I like open minded girls too.

7. We have so many girls in the SKY nation who are fans. What shout out do you want to give to them? Thank y’all so much for the love, for the messages, thanks for your support. It’s all about you, without you there’s no Kidi. It’s you that listen to my music, you that tweet about me and tell others about me. Thank you so much. SKY Girls don’t stop supporting Kidi. If you see me anywhere just holla at me and let’s hang!
