Today I learnt a new word, Keffiyeh. This word replaces 'mexican scarf' and 'bandana scarf'. Although technically speaking they are Arabic. I have long since wanted such an article of clothing but have been advised by a few people 'NO!'.
I quite like the look and as such, went searching today. Rogues in MC has them for $25 .. but a little birdie told me to try Cotton On where a $10 price tag may lie waiting. I went Vic Market and tried my luck there, but nothing. I did however pick up a brown scarf.. $5!!
I think I'll get one.. some people like them, some people dislike them.. but since it's my neck on the line, I'm all for giving it a go.
*EDIT* I have since bought one from Cotton On $10, yet to find 1 person who actually likes them besides myself.
Ok, so here's my honest opinion.
ReplyDeleteI think those Keffiyeh's are nice and trendy. Wait, I did.
Honestly if you would see someone wearing it on its own its very chic, but due to the flood of Keffiyeh's around peoples necks now, I dont really like it anymore. Jessa will get me. Right Jessa?
I bought a leather jacket last yr before it was so called "in". I hate wearing it now cos everytime I walk around EVERYONE is wearing them.
Anyhoo .. ill keep talkin to u on msn now HAHA..
