A lot of people I know like vests coupled with arm warmers. A vest serves as a wind shell for your chest yet vents better than many full jackets.
+1 - when it's a little colder, I like a long sleeve Under-Armor or equivalent technical stretchy shirt (I have some Reeboks I got cheap), it does a good job of keeping me warm without overheating.
