Write a paraphrase of this paragraph please!

Help its due soon

Paul entered the faculty room suave and smiling. His clothes were a trifle outgrown, and the tan velvet on the collar of his open overcoat was frayed and worn; but for all that there was something of the dandy about him, and he wore an opal pin in his neatly knotted black four-in-hand, and a red carnation in his buttonhole. This latter adornment the faculty somehow felt was not properly significant of the contrite spirit befitting a boy under the ban of suspension.

Paul arrived in the faculty room with style and a smile. He wore a red carnation in his buttonhole and an opal pin in his neatly knotted black four-in-hand, despite the fact that his clothes were slightly outgrown and the tan velvet on the collar of his open overcoat was frayed and worn. Despite this, he had a touch of dandyism about him. The teachers decided that this latter ornament did not adequately reflect the contrite spirit appropriate for a boy serving a suspension.
