COTTON CANDY AND DOUBLE SIDED TAPE

So there's the pink coat. I hate to be a fleeting trend, but fuck, it was 50% off. It's heavy enough for the frigid nights yet light enough for the tepid days, I've been needing a transitional coat for a while now and this one fits the bill.
I know there are plenty of other girls out there that have this exact coat, so it's definitely going to be problematic trying to stand out in such a recognizable number. I already knew I wanted to play with masculine shapes, since that's what makes the coat so good - a mannish silhouette in an ultra dainty color.
I tried a white Jil Sander button up with jeans, no. Just no. It's so basic, how do I amp it up? Digging, digging, digging... There we go. A Helmut collarless button up in sheer navy. That's kind of better...
And then it hit me. Remember Jennifer Lopez in that iconic Versace plunging palm tree dress? Who doesn't?
I unbuttoned my shirt - not as low as J.Lo's since I still got that winter bodied torso - right above my belly button. There are only two buttons in tact, this is a total nip slip situation but nothing a little double sided tape can't help.
Thank you Jennifer Lopez for helping me get dressed for tonight.
