The reality star likely had no idea that posing in an Indian headdress sitting in front of a tiny teepee would offend Native Americans.

The reality star donned the garb during the birthday party for her nephew, North West spawn of her sister Kim and rapper/jerk Kanye West.

The birthday party featured a "Kidchella"-theme that included a Ferris wheel, a bounce house, and a smattering of teepees.

Ray of clouds. Chirping of birds. Gurgling of water. Granting desire. One with water. #Kidchella my first Coachella!!!" she captioned the pic.

On one hand it surprising to see a Kardashian wearing so much clothing in a picture.

On the other it's amazing that nobody in a family which lives on TV suggested to Khloe that the picture would not be met with universal applause.

The posting brought a number of angry posts.

"Our culture isn't a fashion statement, I do not wish to waste my time arguing with people too ignorant to understand that. You should be ashamed @khloekardashian," commenter ncholewa11 wrote.

Commentor luv_latisia noted not only Khloe's headdress, but also her pose. "She is COMPLETELY disrespecting our culture by sitting there in a meditation pose... What Native American tribe is known to meditate? And since when did honoring become imitating?"
