Thanks for the help. I bought the half-zip Bloomingdale's cashmere. BTW, I diagree with your opinion on half-zip. I like half-zips. I could pop the collar and they're perfect for showing layers.

I like the grey.
If you already have a black coat, get the grey, else get the black.

Medical scrubs always have similarly huge arm openings, a loose fit, and are blue in color. If the sleeves were more fitted and the color were black, then I might like it a little better.

This one, if it wasn't so awfully distressed. I like a stitching detail on some belts for wear w/jeans. Keep the belt simple and buy good leather. Distress it yourself.

Thought up by some Mormon who was never a teenager, re-living teen years that never happened except on the pages of 'Teen Dream'. Poor soul would have had their little pre-teen ego shredded into pieces by the Mean Girls.
