At exactly 22°C
You are at the warm end of this range. In full sun, the lighter top from the warm guide is enough.
If the morning sits around 17°C, start with the outer layer from the fresh guide; by an afternoon near 25°C you will want it off.
If it rains at 22°C: swap the outer layer for a water-resistant one and choose leather or rubber-soled shoes.
Mornings and evenings can dip below 18°C, so keep the cardigan close.
Is 22°C cold?
Not really. It is mild: long sleeves are comfortable and a jacket is optional.
