For the weeklong trip, consider your daily activities. Are you going to be traipsing through ruins, dining at four-star restaurants, or visiting churches where bare shoulders aren't permitted? "I start packing three to four days before my trip, so I have enough time to make sure I'm taking what I need and taking out things that are not necessary," says Nada Vergili, owner and tour operator of Nada's Italy Tours, who frequently travels overseas from her home in Charlotte, N.C. Pick wrinkle-free fabrics that pack and launder easily, like cotton jersey. If you don't already carry an on-the-go stain remover in your purse, slip one in.

What I call "fashionable utility pieces" are a must. They'll freshen up looks you'll be repeating and also serve the practical purpose of keeping you warm on a chilly night. Two of my favorites are an open-knit sweater with the perfect amount of see-through for easy layering; and a large, colorful scarf that's convertible as a shawl, a cleverly tied halter or a head wrap. A boyfriend blazer is another must; it puts a smart spin on a casual tee and will also look chic worn over a sleeveless summer dress .
