These 22 Jackets Are Perfect for Cool Summer Nights
Ah, the plight of dressing for a full day's worth of activities in the summertime. In the mornings and afternoons, the temperature can be in the upper 80s (and, thus, something cool and lightweight, such as a sundress, is a must), but once the sun sets, it can quickly drop to a chill 60 degrees. Now, to adequately dress for the fluctuating day-to-night weather, we highly suggest investing in a summer jacket that you can easily throw on at sunset, and we found the 22 best styles to pair with your favorite warm-weather pieces.
From a bright yellow suede pick to a stylish linen vest to a peplum denim jacket, consider packing these pieces the next time you find yourself out late on a cool summer night. Trust us—these summer jackets pair perfectly with your favorite floral-print dresses, always classic shorts, pretty skirts, and heat-friendly jeans. Best of all, you can still wear them early on in the fall. Read on to shop our favorite summer jackets.
