Summer Trends. Light Layers for Cool Nights

I don't know about where you live, but if you are in Chicago or NYC, 2009 is shaping up to be the 'Bummer Summer!' By nightfall it is down right chilly! I find myself needing a light sweater or jacket to make it through the evening and if this summer continues as is, I'm going to need a lot more.

These are great for chilly offices too, since the air conditioner is always on to high.
