1. Simple Dress

"A simple dress you can layer is a no-brainer for any destination. Dress outfits are effortlessly fashionable and function great day or night."

2. Jeans

"Denim is the new black. Choose the most updated styles that work with all of the shoes you are taking."

3. Printed/Striped Blouse

"Pick a print. It can be anything from a kitschy cardigan to an animal-print shoe to a graphic tee. Picking a print will provide you with a color story you can use for inspiration to start planning your travel capsule wardrobe."

4. Blazer

"Blazers make the most stylish travel companions. When you layer a structured piece like a blazer over your comfortable loose layers, you effortlessly pull your look together."

5. Tank Top

"I never travel without a black or white tank top. Choose a style you can wear solo or layered. You can't control the weather, but these little layers make it easy to adapt to it."

6. Pull-On Pants

"Pull-on pants were part of my spring capsule wardrobe. Comfortable enough for a 12-hour flight and stylish enough to wear out at night. My favorites this season have a modern track-pant influence or kick slit."

7. Sneakers

"It doesn't matter how fabulous your outfit is if your feet hurt. A sneaker is that stylish secret weapon that's just as great for all that walking as it is at making a fashion statement."

8. Belt Bag

"Belt bags are the ultimate travel accessory and probably the most functional piece you'll pack. Being able to wear all the pieces in your capsule in at least two ways is the key. This includes accessories."
