🇮🇹 What I Packed for 10 Days in Italy + the South of France 🇫🇷

These are the pieces that made the cut for Rome, Sorrento, Taormina, Florence, and Provence—all packed in a carry-on.

My goal is always the same: versatile pieces that can be mixed, matched, layered, and reworn throughout the trip.

I’ve linked the exact items (or similar alternatives) from my travel capsule here

My airport outfit philosophy:
Your transit outfit should be part of your travel capsule—not a completely separate category.
I’d rather wear polished, rewearable pieces that can work for the actual trip than pack a thick matching travel set I’ll only wear once.
This “transit trouser” formula is one of my favorites for Europe: comfortable enough for long travel days but elevated enough to rewear throughout the trip.

#LTKOver40

The dresses, outfits, shoes, and accessories from my Dress-Forward Europe Capsule are all linked here ✈️

The goal with this capsule wasn’t packing more.

It was building outfits that actually work together:
• dresses that serve different purposes
• easy day-to-night styling
• pieces that repeat well
• lighter packing with more outfit options

This is the exact kind of wardrobe I build for summer trips to Europe, Mediterranean travel, and multi-destination itineraries.

Think:
coastal dinners, city walking days, café mornings, museum afternoons, and warm evenings where you still want to feel put together.

You’ll find:
• statement dresses
• shirt dresses
• sporty/comfort dresses
• capsule basics
• accessories
• shoes
• layering pieces

Everything linked here works together intentionally so getting dressed on your trip feels easier ✨

#LTKOver40 #LTKTravel

The simplest carry-on airport outfit formula - is 4 pieces that you will rewear during your trip as part of your travel capsule. A transit trouser + breathable lightweight tee+ mid layer + light jacket

#LTKOver40

The secret to a carry on friendly airport outfit - wear what you will wear during your trip. Simple, comfortable layers.

Summer travel shoes for Europe

You don’t need 5 pairs of shoes—just the right 2–3.

• 1 neutral sandal
• 1 optional dressy pair

Comfortable, versatile shoes that work across your entire Europe travel wardrobe.

#LTKTravel #LTKOver40

Versatile, lightweight layers for cool mornings, flights, and evenings across Europe—without adding bulk.

#LTKOver40 #LTKTravel

Summer travel tops for Europe

The secret to more outfits without overpacking?
Tops that work across everything.

Versatile, mix-and-match tops that pair with multiple bottoms for easy Europe summer travel outfits.

#LTKOver40 #LTKTravel

Summer travel bottoms for Europe

Your travel wardrobe doesn’t need a lot of bottoms—just the right ones.

Summer travel dresses for Europe (neutrals)

The easiest way to pack light for Europe? Start with dresses.

These are my go-to: easy, breathable, and designed to go from day to night without overpacking.

Think:

The foundation of a simple, versatile travel wardrobe.

Destination color dresses for Europe

A neutral base + a few strategic color pieces makes summer travel outfits feel intentional—not overpacked.

Think:

Essential 8 travel capsule ✈️

My go-to foundation for building a carry-on wardrobe for Europe and city travel.

8 pieces → multiple outfits
Mix, match, and layer without overpacking.

Can be worn as a standalone capsule or expanded into a full 4-3-2-2-1 (Travelista 12).

Shop the pieces below.

#LTKOver40 #LTKTravel

8-piece travel capsule → 20+ outfits ✈️

This is my minimal travel capsule built for carry-on or personal item only travel. Every piece mixes and matches so you can create multiple outfits without overpacking. Or use this as a base for a full 12 piece capsule.

Includes:
• versatile tops for layering (button downs are key)
• a polished transit trouser for travel days and beyond
• denim + an additional bottom for variety
• lightweight layers for changing weather

This is the foundation I use for city travel, Europe trips, and everyday capsule packing. #travelcapsule

#LTKTravel #LTKOver40

Matching sets that actually work for carry-on travel.

Short sets → best for hot, casual destinations like Greece, southern Italy, and Spain
Skirt sets → perfect for city days and easy day-to-dinner outfits
Pant sets → linen or cotton gauze only (lightweight, breathable, and easy to rewear)

The key is choosing sets that mix with the rest of your capsule, not just look good together.

Sharing short, skirt, and lightweight pant sets I’d actually pack for a summer trip to Europe and the one set I packed last summer (the black and white gingham skirt set)✨

One matching set, multiple outfits.

This is how I build a carry-on travel capsule that actually works. Worn together, this set is an effortless outfit. Worn separately, the pieces mix with the rest of your wardrobe to create multiple looks.

My rule:

Top → must match at least one other bottom
Bottom → must match one or two other tops

That’s how one set turns into 4–6 outfits without overpacking.

Sharing this set + everything I’d pair with it for a summer trip to Europe ✨

#LTKOver40 #LTKTravel

The airport outfit formula that always works ✈️
It starts with one great transit trouser — comfortable enough for the plane, polished enough to wear straight into your trip.
Build around it with breathable layers, an outer layer, and shoes you can actually walk in — and suddenly your travel outfit becomes a repeatable uniform, not a one-off look.
These are the transit trousers I reach for because they work beyond the airport: city days, dinners, long walks, and travel laundry included.

Packing cubes used to be my ride-or-die… until I tried compression stuff sacks and realized how much space I was wasting. 😅

This is my new favorite way to pack a capsule wardrobe (especially if you’re carry-on only). I packed 8 items from my 12 piece winter travel capsule and winter accessories. (You wear the other 4 items in the capsule).
I linked the compression sacks + travel packing favorites on my LTK ✨🧳

How 12 pieces make 30+ winter outfits ❄️

This try-on shows my Travelista 12 winter capsule — 4 tops, 3 bottoms, 2 mid-layers, 2 outerwear pieces, and 1 dress — mixed and layered for real winter travel.

Same formula. Smarter layers. Easier outfits.

#LTKTravel #LTKOver40

The Travelista 12: Winter Travel Capsule ❄️

This winter capsule follows The Travelista 12 — the 12-piece packing formula I use to build flexible, mix-and-match outfits that actually work for travel.

For winter, that means:
4 tops
3 bottoms
2 mid-layers
2 outerwear pieces
1 dress
(+ shoes and accessories that support the capsule)

A few winter-specific strategies I always use:
• The coat is the main character — choose one that works with everything
• A lightweight puffer layers under a wool coat for extra warmth without bulk
• Wool trousers feel polished but stay practical in cold weather
• Ponte knit pants are my go-to airplane outfit and transit trouser
• Neutral colors make outfit repeating easy and intentional

The goal isn’t packing more — it’s choosing pieces that work together, layer well, and earn their place in a carry-on.

I’ve linked the capsule pieces, outfit combinations, and winter accessories here so you can recreate this look or adapt it to your own trip.

#LTKOver40 #LTKTravel

Carry-On Scarf Series, Vol. 1 ❄️ 3 easy winter scarf styles every stylish traveler should know.
I love a versatile scarf for travel — it changes the look of your outfit while your coat stays the same. This neutral checked scarf works with almost any travel capsule and has that cozy, expensive feel (without the price).
Paired here with a classic charcoal gray wool coat that’s perfectly oversized, structured yet slouchy for a modern, effortless fit. Easy to layer, easy to repeat, and ideal for winter travel days.

#LTKTravel #LTKootd #LTKOver40

Your suitcase isn’t too small, you’re just packing the wrong winter pieces.

These 7 travel-tested essentials actually earn their place in a carry-on:

1️⃣ Smart base layers that regulate warmth without overheating
2️⃣ A packable down jacket that layers, not bulks
3️⃣ Weatherproof boots you can walk in all day
4️⃣ Wool socks (don’t skip this)
5️⃣ Versatile pants that work indoors and outside
6️⃣ A lightweight merino or cashmere sweater
7️⃣ Accessories that switch up your look while your coat stays the same

🧳 This is how you stay warm, repeat outfits, and still feel pulled-together, without overpacking.
