A head scarf fashion special -- From Johnny Depp to Britney Spears, pirate chic is all the rage

Oi, matey. Jack Sparrow would surely have these Pirates pretenders walking the plank for stealing his beauty secret: the head scarf. (Another possible inspiration? The new CBS reality show Pirate Master.) But the captain won't likely be ditching his look just because a few famous land sharks copped his seafaring style. See you on the poop deck, fashionistas!

JOHNNY DEPP
He's no you-know-what-come-lately to the trend; the classic wraparound is a perfect complement to his guy-liner and dreadlock dinglebobbles.

NICOLE RICHIE
Her paisley headgear says Aerosmith; her mod shades, Barbarella. And the xylophone breastbone? Possible scurvy.

BRITNEY SPEARS
Does a re-blonded Brit long for ye olde shorn-head days? While she's taken her scalp off public display, the be-skulled scarf sends up a flare.

ASHTON KUTCHER
Though his silken number is undoubtedly pricey, methinks he got Punk'don this brave but misguided fashion voyage.

RIHANNA
Who needs an ''Umbrella'' when your head's already covered? The pop diva mixes streetwear with sweet pop-art prints: That's a real treasure.

LINDSAY LOHAN
Well, shiver our timbers! The starlet appears to have either a very forward fashion sense, or the world's chicest bandage for a gaping head wound.
