Why did king Charles wear 2 shirts at his execution?
He wore two shirts because he didn't want a shiver of coldness to be mistaken for a shiver of fear. One of the shirts that he wore is now on display in the English stately home of Longleat House, in Wiltshire. It was the OUTER shirt, as it has fewer blood stains than if it had been the inner one (I think the inner one was burnt soon after the execution took place).
What was it like during the execution of Charles 1?
I would suggest it was chilly, as is evident from this written record of his execution: "Charles was beheaded on Tuesday 30 January 1649. At the execution it is reputed that he wore two cotton shirts as to prevent the cold weather causing any noticeable shivers that the crowd could have mistaken for fear or weakness"
What did Charles wore for the execution?
Two shirts, so he would not be seen shivering on this freezing day - he worried that people might think he was afraid. Curiously, this was one of the most unmistakable predictions of Nostradamus, the other ones being largely obscured by complex codes and translations.

Why was King James executed?
No. You are probably thinking of King Charles I (1600 - 1649), son of James I and father of James II. During the English Civil War (1641 - 1651), the army of Royalists loyal to the king, were eventually defeated by the Parliamentarian army loyal to Oliver Cromwell. Charles I was tried for treason to the people and executed on 30 January 1649 outside the Banqueting House in Whitehall, London. He was very brave, and wore two shirts because he did not want people to think he was shivering with fear. In 1660, his son, Charles II, was returned to the throne as king within two years of Cromwell's death, and the monarchy restored (the Restoration).
