Seems all of my local stores carry reflective neon yellow for men, but not for women.  Even when I look online, I can't seem to find reflective yellow for ladies... at least not in a short sleeved cycling jersey.  I did find some in plus sizes, but not in smaller sizes.

I'm going to increase my weeknight riding and am afraid of it getting dusky while I'm out.  I guess for now I will look for a reflective road vest to put over my clothes, but I would really prefer a "cute" bike jersey.

Any recommendations for reflective clothing or anything else to stay safe out there?

It's a vest rather than a jersey, but http://www.nashbar.com/bikes/Product_10053_10052_505169_-1_201579_10000_200482

I'd put lights on your bike in addition to wearing high-vis gear.  You can also get reflective harnesses (check out the running stores) instead of a vest. 

You can also get high-vis velcro bands to wear on your arm/ankle.

Thanks Mike!

I think I finally found something at performancebike.com.

I'll definitely add lights to my bike as well.  I don't plan on being out after dusk, but better safe than sorry!

Oh, oh...would you mind sharing which jersey you found at Performance?  I too, have been searching high and low for a women's hi-viz cycling jersey...and have come up empty.  Thanks!

I don't t know that these are actually "reflective" but at least they are bright.  I ordered this one in the green, but it really looks bright lime/yellow.

This was has a bright lime too (but I preferred the other):

I also ordered a bright orange sleeveless (my bike is orange!).

They have 10% off over Easter weekend.  And I found a discount code that worked for 15% off:  use  BIKE15

Says it expires April 4.  It worked for me and I just now tested it again and it worked. 

Good luck!
