I mainly use headphones to listen to Pandora or tunein radio on my phone.

Want something to block out thw noise and prefer wireless.

none

Out of curiosity, what do you do for a living? There are not a lot of jobs where "blocking out the noise" is an option. I listen to loud music when I'm working late by myself, so this isn't an attack.

If what you’re looking for in your Bluetooth headphones is functionality—decent sound and a compact rugged build—the Jabra REVOs are the best choice out there. They aren’t overpriced, have some great features and are a perfect fit for the person who really needs Bluetooth functionality

I have to wear headphones at work because the girls that work there are so fricking loud. They have no idea how to be quiet.

Bose Quiet Comfrort 15 (qc-15).

I work in an open office floor plan and these have been a life saver. Great noise canceling headphones with good sound quality.

They are a bit pricey, but they are damn good.

How about a recommendation for headphones that are good for working out and sweating?

I use Powerbeats to workout because they stay in your ear. Use monster inspiration to fly, like the noise cancelling and don't like wearing in-ears on a plane.

You give up something no matter the choice.

Bluetooth SQ sucks. Noise cancellation SQ sucks. Good sound quality often doesn't totally block out noise.

I have a lot of headphones and most of them get used at work at some time or another, but I'm currently working from home and wearing Sennheiser Momentum On Ears.

I have wireless over ear Bose AE2w (~$190). They are decent, but wouldn't wear them at the office ever. I have the Bose IE2 (~$90) in ear buds and they are very comfortable. Sound quality is okay. I got both for free. Wouldn't spend the money on them. Sound quality isn't that good. But i will say the in ear ones are the most comfortable ear buds I've had. I cant stand the iphone ones.

I would suggest some of the Bose workout in-ear headphones. I have the Freestyles but there are a few new ones. The reason I recommend them is because they're not noise canceling - you don't have to pull them out to hear your boss ask you a question and they're better for situational awareness - very good for running along busy roads.

Check out the Inner Fidelity Wall of Fame. They've got a "top list" of every style of headphone. I'd re-evaluate the need for wireless headphones, but that's just personal preference. Sufficiently long and interchangeable cables, including coiled vs uncoiled, are available in many commercially available headphones.
