Sometimes a vintage denim jacket adds a fun touch for a lightweight sweater and a skirt combo, for the first transitional days of summer into fall. Here's a Levis 70s light blue denim jacket some crafty boho chick decorated with a big piece of patchwork on the back.
Rain, thunder, and 74 degree days? yup, just carry a jacket and you can toss it on when the first rain falls, and doff it when the sun comes back out and spreads the warmth.
No need for your sweater to be boring, right?
