If you don't like either that's fine, tell me which one you despise least, or attack me personally. Ideally I would get both, but I can't justify it as a plebe student. FWIW I'm really white, have light brown hair, and hazel-green eyes (ASL?).

Green would be better for you. Don't they have a darker hue?

Yes, green, it is slightly more versatile. Can't you get something a little less bright?

That's pretty much what I was thinking, better for my skin tone (or lack thereof) and more versatile. Looks like some ***** 'bout to get pregnant!

If anybody has fit pics in either of these colors it would be much appreciated...

I had a kelly green RLPL cashmere sweater years ago (I wonder what happened to it?) and it got a surprising amount of wear. Teh chicks loved it.

Green looks good. If they're out of it, please don't get the blue.

Love shetlands but never warmed to shaggy dogs. I have a blue green that is lovely but I have not been comfortable wearing. Looks too girlish with the warm fuzzies ... maybe because there was this cute Greek girl who often wore the same color shaggy dog (I remembered after buying) back in 7th grade. Hard to shake the notion that I am wearing a girl's ... evelyn's ... sweater. But also the texture is so fuzzy wuzzily I would only buy in navy, now ... plus ... to compound the heresy ... I also came to regard the brushed shetland as the predistressed denim of sweaters .. why not buy new and pill that way after a decade of hard wear ...
