How to overwrite angular 2 material styles?

Question

I have this select in angular material:

Its code :

<md-select placeholder="Descuentos y convenios" [(ngModel)]="passenger.discount">         <md-option [value]="null" [disabled]="true">             Descuentos         </md-option>         <md-option *ngFor="let option of discounts" [value]="option">             {{ option }}         </md-option>         <md-option [value]="null" [disabled]="true">             Convenios         </md-option>         <md-option *ngFor="let option of agreements" [value]="option">             {{ option }}         </md-option> </md-select> 

And I would like to have this styles in it:

I tried to put some classes over md-select and md-option, but not worked. I would like to have maybe just an example of how to put the background color or the border and that would give me an idea.

Thank you in advance

I think classes should work, but you may need to use /deep/ because of the view encapsulation.

Try this:

/deep/ md-select.your-class {   background-color: blue; } 

You can also play with theming.
