ColdPruf is my go to.
I bought oversized so they would go over any other layers and that provided instant warmth from the inevitable cold spots jackets have plus easy to strip off when it warms up. One thing I am for sure bringing to Australia.
Below 20c I get chilly on a long ride here when I leave early and the ColdPruf packs very small.
I am also finding Itchy Boots neck muff helps block chilly spots where the jacket and helmet meet. Useful garment and packs small.
Forgot about balaclavas....they are essential and need to have bibs front and back. Cant recall which one I liked best - the wind proofing is essential.
Like this - helmet fit is important tho
This RevIt looks seriously good for cold weather riding.
I also concur on a pinlock visor. I was shocked how well the C3 worked in cold weather.
Darn Tough for socks and they do honour their lifetime warranty.

SmartWool. I buy mine from Altitude Sports out of Montreal or direct from SmartWool. Thin and warm and quality made.
Altitude Sports often has sales and you can buy a lifetime membership that gets you 5% off every order and they often have a double discount sale where you get 10%.

@OP, dont know where you are but Decathelon stores have the most reasonable merino wool stuff I've found , undershirts and long johns. Also its hit or miss but Costco will often have some winter T shirts ect.
Little harder to find but alpaca socks are pretty good also.

These are my go to riding socks. They breathe well and are great value for money.
J.B. Field's Hiking "Light Hiker" Coolmax Crew Sock
This is a great light weight hiking sock perfect for summer excursions. Made from 63% Coolmax, it will wick away moisture keeping your foot dry and comfortable. The arch and ribbed calf create an excellent fit and invisible

Costco does carry some Paradox winter shirts - but you need to balance the low price with the low amount of Merino wool content.
They also currently have a Karbon battery operated heated vest.
Does it have to be Itchy Boots? Or will any Buff be as effective?
And its great to keep earbuds in (they give me directions if needed and double as noise blockers)
look into Plugfones
i get it...but i already have my jabra elite 75t
and also have my edifier tws1
and also have my aftershokz (which ill never wear under a helmet again lol)
I have airpods and had some samsung buds before then. they were OK but not ideal, these are ideal.
I Generally don’t leave the house wearing womens clothing , but exceptions could be made
