One of the most familiar logos burned into my mind is the little A&F moose stitched brightly into the t-shirts and polo shirts of every girl at the mall in middle school. Having that moose on your shirt was classy, a status symbol among suburban teenagers.

Now, you almost never (for good reason) see these lime green or bubblegum pink polos bring sported around town. However, with the button up dad shirts coming back into style this summer, I thought I’d take another look at its collared-cousin, the polo shirt.

Functional and preppy, these shirts are easy to style because they can be worn and layered a number of ways. Take a look for some cute and refreshing polo shirt outfits to bring this throwback wardrobe staple back to life.
