A Kuffiyeh, Shmagh or Hatta is a traditional Arabian headdress and has been for a very long time!
With the changing world of fashion, the Kuffiyeh has become integrated in trends and fashions and is now part of the cool attire that youngsters like to wear.
Celebrities have also shown interest in the Kuffiyeh! Stars like Cameron Diaz, Colin Farrell and Shia Labeouf have been spotted wearing them in different colors.
Let's face it, a Kuffiyeh looks good around the neck and keeps you warm when it's cold!
What do you think of the Kuffiyeh? Cool or lame?
Have you heard about the Rachel Ray Dunkin’ Donuts ad which was pulled because she was wearing something that slightly resembled a Kuffiyeh? Now, that's Lame!

I think this trend is okay

Dear areej,
In Jordan you can find a Shmagh or Kuffiyeh easily.
Try going downtown Amman and you'll sure find the red and black ones.
Its all over the world ya no ? Like in london there are some arabic shops you can get it from there not doesnt have to be an arabic shop just anywhere
Innit !
Peace to all .

to areej:
you can find all sorts of colours in the suvineer shops downtown .. including pink and green.
i love the hatta it cool regardless .. britney i think a hatta is alot better looking than a scotch skirt :P anyway.. arab-american comedian Maysoon Zayid is always wearing nice hatta designs such as skirts and tops ..
google pics of her ull see what i mean.
