Brighten up your rainy day trench coat with a fun pastel polo. Since the coat will cover most of your shirt, don’t be afraid to try an eye-catching color such as lemon or seafoam. Light colors help soften the sharp angles of the layered collars, while giving your outfit a feminine feel. If you’re feeling daring, try a polo in candy stripes or argyle. Complete the preppy look by braiding a one-inch section of your hair near your bangs. You can pull back your bangs with a jeweled bobby pin or headband for a cleaner look.
