MANILA, Philippines - One of the most versatile pieces of clothing, the polo has remained a closet mainstay for men everywhere. Long gone are the days when these shirts were solely worn on tennis courts and polo fields.

Rappler gives you tips on how to style your pique polo using bright colours, prints, tipped collars and suave accessories.

1. Nothing says dapper more than a bow tie. Choose one within the same colour palette of the shirt for understated sophistication.
