What should you wear in 60-degree weather?
One light layer over a base: a denim jacket, chore coat, or cardigan over a tee or light knit. Long pants.
Sixty degrees is the most-asked temperature because it sits exactly between seasons - cool in shade, warm in sun, cold after dark. The working answer: a base (tee or fine long-sleeve) plus one light layer you can keep on indoors, and long pants. The layers that hit the mark: denim jacket, chore coat, unlined trench, structured cardigan, overshirt. What fails at 60F: heavy sweaters (too hot by noon), no layer at all (cold by 6pm), and sandals paired with a jacket (the mixed-signals outfit that means you guessed). Check the day's swing: a forecast of 60 usually means 52 at 8am and 68 at 2pm, so pick the layer for the morning low and make sure the base works alone at the afternoon high.
