Wear clothes designed to keep you warm in the cold.
Wear lots of thin layers of clothes instead of one heavy coat. If you get warm and sweaty, take off a layer to let the sweat dry. If you start feeling cold again, add layers of clothing.
Drink and eat a lot, so your body has plenty of “fuel” to generate heat.
