I like dressing nice so yeah I’m going to wear kind of expensive clothes and shoes. I would prefer popular name brand clothes such as Jordan, Pink, American Eagle, Aeropostale and things that fall in that category. Pink is my favorite color because it’s bright and it’s a very pretty color. Out of all the colors in the world I have more pink clothes or bright colored clothes in my wardrobe. Shopping is something I enjoy doing on a daily basis, especially when I’m with my friends. My grandma take vacations and trips often and I go with her most of the times so w I get a lot of clothes and shoes because she likes shopping as well.

I know for a fact that everyone loves music you can’t go wrong with a couple tunes playing back and forth here and there. I have a lot favorite song, artist, videos and etc. Chief Keef is one of my favorite rappers because i like the way he rap duh if that’s my favorite but yeah he is a very good rapper even though sometimes you can’t hear what he saying but i bet you will still like him. Music is something my family is enjoy as well, I like the music my family play but when my granny gets the choices Umm NO she like that bogus old people music and I don’t like that type of music because it’s not my type of selection of music. Her music makes you want to leave the house, half the time they sound like they crying and depressed and I don’t like it. Some of favorite rappers are Chief Keef, Beyoncé, Lil Durk, Chris Brown, Lucci, Fetty Wap And Skooly. My life without music or any of them rappers I just named it would be totally empty. I listen to music on a daily basis and anytime of the day. Music takes away my stress sometimes and it keeps me amped and alive. When I’m on my way to school I like listening to music to get prepare for my day and ignoring the kids on the bus. When I was younger I probably didn’t know what music was but now I do and I love it. I like listening to feeling and songs that help you think about life and the memories. My favorite feeling song is “Cry Me A River” By Skooly, he is a young

    I enjoy getting dressed up for fancy events. I feel uncomfortable in crop tops that are cropped too much and skirts/shorts that or too short. While I never think too hard when shopping at the mall, it is quite apparent to me that my fashion choices are not actually so personal to me. In fact, the items in my closet can be described as more or less “feminine.” I dress the way I do because it feels comfortable to me.…

    The commercial ad “J.O.C. Clothing” is what I’m gonna do my paper on. In this ad made by Oliva, Chris, and Jackson, their main persuasive technique was being snobby and using bandwagon a lot. They wanted the audience to think you’d be way cooler than everyone else if you wore their clothes. If you wanted to gain popularity you should wear their clothes. This ad would probably draw closer to either someone who wanted to be popular or someone who already is popular but wants to become higher in popularity.…
