Your body makes heat which must be shed, so wearing a blanket will make you warmer even on a hot day.
To be cool you want clothes that wick up perspiration and evaporate it to the air, cooling you down. Natural fibers do this, cotton, linen, and even wool. Light colors reflect rather than absorb heat from the sun.

In the African dessert, you have a situation where its' VERY hot in the day and cold at night. The result is that people wear long flowing clothes which are typically white so as to reflect the sun's rays as much as possible.

If you want to stay cool, bring an umbrella. You can use it to cast a large shadow on yourself, preventing the Sun from heating you. Unlike a blanket, it won't obstruct wind flow too much, allowing the breeze to further cool you.
