I see people in the south of France sporting the sweater over the shoulders thing, all the time. The weather shifts from sunny and warm to sunny and chilly quite quickly (it comes from living on the shores of the Mediterranean I suppose).
I don't see it as frequently here but I can tell you that most women have a shawl or pashmina tucked into their bags. Stepping out of equatorial heat into freezing malls is not pleasant. Hell, I wear a jacket at my desk all day because of the bloody freezing air conditioning. I carry a light sweater with me to the movies.
Chacun son gout.
