Outer combination and black shirt

Outer is the best solution when you need to look polite but still casual. Starting from combining a black crew neck t-shirt with two types of outers such as a pea coat and a waterproof jacket but with a formal impression, the macintosh coat.

Black T-shirt, shorts and sneakers
