Backcountry.com has the Ibex vertigo jacket in warm green color for $44.99. A great price for a wonderful jacket, but I'm still trying to make myself like the color.

I could not ignore the Ibex messages. I did get a few pieces: two LS pointelle tops (red and black), a cute top that I hope I can wear for work, and a t-shirt for my husband. (Don't tell him.)

We were away hiking last weekend and as we did I thought about wool (I was wearing a lot of it). All of my Ibex pieces, without exception, are up there in the pantheon of my favourite pieces of clothing. I wear them ALL the time. And they still look great.

So I decided it was okay to add a few more pieces. I'll just have to get rid of a few other things in my closet.

I've been tempted by the green, but I have a purple & black vertigo already.

Last night I was straightening in our living room when I came across a pile of catalogs that must have been our mail over the past few days. One was from Terry. I flipped through it briefly, saw a few cute non-bike items including some new things from Ibex (Terry carries Ibex now?) and was about to toss it out. I mentioned to my H that there were some cute things in there, so he asked to see the catalog. I'd like to think that he's planning ahead for Christmas, but it's more likely he wanted to see the cute cycling girls. (To be fair, my H went to school with one of the girls who often models for Terry, so he probably just wanted to see if she made the latest version). Anyway, about 20 minutes later I see my H sitting on the couch with his laptop in his lap. He's got an Ibex window open, a backcountry outlet window open and he's doing a search at Sierra Trading post for wool. Apparently the cute fall Ibex items in the Terry catalog inspired my husband to hunt out some new wool items for himself.

Conversion to woolweenie, complete!

oh my goodness I LOVE LOVE my new Ibex jacket. I finally have something lightweight that doesn't look like a parka or a sweatshirt! (and I am so cheap, i never would have gotten it without that 70% off sale)
I wore it saturday; when we went downtown. I kept noticing all the other women wearing that color

Has anyone got the Ibex Pingo jacket? I'm wondering what the sizing is like as it says a Small is a US 4-6 and a Medium is a US 8-10. I'm sort of inbetween and I'm not sure which to go for.
