That's NOT Haute: Arab Scarves

It was brought to my attention today by my fellow ATF'er, Ian Jarrell, that Arab scarves are still considered a major fashion statement to about 74% of the population. Not haute! fotoflexer_photo1

If you are an owner of one of these must-not-haves, do me a favor and just throw it in your garbage can! It's only about $5 anyway. And because I'm all about solutions, I won't just tell you to throw it away. I will give you some more chic options to choose from to replace this tired trend:

ANIMAL PRINT

Animal print is a good look, and a good replacement for the arab scarf. It is a fierce way to go, and you can never go wrong! Animal prints will always be in style.

Anna Sui Psychedelic Paisley Scarf $66, Shopbop

Now, you can either make paisley work for you or you can just do it all wrong. This specific print doesn't work for everybody, so beware!

STRIPES

Striped Scarf $4.99, Forever 21

Stripes are classic! You will never ever be called out for wearing stripes! You can make it work in any weather or season (well, you may look a little silly in the late spring/summer)

Any of these styles or choices would be a good replacement for the Arab scarf. I don't care if you pair these joints with a kufi, just STOP WEARING ARAB SCARVES. I'm done.
