Yes indeed, or make sure your layers are thin enough you can easily peel one off and either tie it round you or squash it in a pocket.

Usually if you dress for 10 degrees above the actual temperature outside you'll be good, it's just nippy to start with ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

I got 3 long sleeve tops from there. Kind of cosy on the inside for these type of mornings ๐Ÿ˜Š
