WoolWeenies Club

Lost my will power; I bought the red half zip shak, along with 2 Smartwool microweight LS tees.

I'm sorry..........., but glad one of you tiny gals got it. It looks like a lovely piece. I ordered mine in black, and think its really gonna round out my collection.

I bought the most beautiful goretex shell parka, and really think that between this piece, the woolie bottoms that are coming, and the REST of my Ibex collection I can pull off a trip to a cold place without packing a big puffy coat.

This strategy works so well for me, since I can just use fewer layers at home, combine them when I travel, and be prepared for anything without trying to anticipate exactly what the weather will be like. I don't know why it took so long to sink in, especially the idea of combining even more layers.

Its hard cuz when I go to stores they really discourage the wool, try to sell me fleeces, down sweaters, etc., but the Ibex pieces are so much more versatile! Thank you wool weenies for educating me................. Lisa always has such great advice (and I know we have similar taste). I ordered one woolie bottom but I will also be on the lookout for the lighter tight Mimi recommended. I am lucky I still have pants that are one size too big from when I lost my weight, but are perfect for when I need another layer on the bottom.

Now I only have to wait for the packages..........
