I wondered aloud on MaryK's striped tube skirt + sweatshirt thread where to get a cute gray sweatshirt, and of course MaryK immediately supplied a link to a cut rate supplier! We're talking around $14!

So I ordered the gray and the black. They are styled sort of like a sweatshirt, but the material is a soft stretchy jersey (no fleece). The black is marled and looks like a charcoal, which the reviews noted (I read the reviews on the actual American Apparel site, but bought from MaryK's link.)

I was scared they'd be short, but I love the length (pulled down the hem hits at the widest part of my hip--I'm 5'5" and long waisted). I wasn't expecting the semi-dolman style (pic 2) but it's not like I run around with my arms out.

What do you think of the style and the fit?
