«لَا فَرَحْ وَلَا زَفَّهْ وِإِيهْ دِي الْخِفَّهْ»

The saying questions someone who has dressed up or made themselves especially attractive when nothing calls for it. A wedding and the festive procession escorting a bride stand for the obvious occasions that would justify such care, and both are said to be missing.

The underlying point is that effort spent on looks normally signals a reason. Here khiffa means a polished, charming appearance, not flighty character. Without an occasion, people notice and wonder what is behind it, so the tone mixes curiosity with ribbing.

Use it as a playful jab when someone shows up unusually groomed or dressed up with no event in sight. It suits people close enough to tease; depending on speaker and listener it can sound affectionate or pointed, even mocking, and often invites an explanation.
