DIFFERENTIATING DIFFERENT FROM AFRICAN
African and western descent are drastically different in terms of there culture, believe, dressing and way of life,African mostly emphasize on there extended family and focus on the culture and way of life
western mostly focus on value and belief of european and northern American society
Basically the writing is to pinpoint there mode of dressing and talk how it dictate way of life.

AFRICAN DESCENT DRESSING
Alot of individual have there way of dressing which an adage says that "appearance shows manner" and sometimes the way we dress show our cultural belief.You can never ignore African dressing without mentioning iro and buba which is mainly for Africa people. although alot of African wish to copy the western dressing while Westernian will never copy African dress.

WESTERN DESCENT DRESSING
Dressing show manner and your lifestyle,alot of users will pick a girl to be the seriously and religious one because of how she dress and she might not be what the guy choose.
Western believe in wearing English dress like,jean, t-shirt and shorts to make them free and easy movement,Alot of African see it admiring which tense them to copy the western dressing and most girls decided to wear to show there body which it tells there personality.
Alot of African want to live a life style of a western users which has change there personality to a good child to other way round,African have abused the western dressing to the extend that the engage in prostitute and dress short to make it attractive to client.
MY PERSONAL LIFESTYLE INVOLVING MY AFRICAN DRESS.
