Just wondering what you can't travel without. I know it depends if you're going somewhere tropical or a ski vacation, cruise, etc.
I always wear a 3/4 length coat w/hood. Mainly because most planes have the air on and I like wearing my coat and will also wear the hood while flying, I usually bring lots of scarves with me some are cotton/rayon casual. I'll wear if it's get cold others that I have I'll wear more as a shawl little more dressy for evening, they're so convenient and lightweight.
Also this saves me on the plane to not use their blankets - yuck
Also, usually bring a pair of gloves, and plain white tees Sometimes I just can't think what to wear so I start with a plain white tee short/long sleeve (depending on weather) and start laying with one of my scarves
This is a nice way to not overpack and travel light. Especially since I usually want to buy something wherever I go, usually a lightweight type of sweater.
I have a pashmina/loop scarf thing that I almost always have with me on a plane. It is a blanket, a pillow, a scarf and nicely hides stains on my shirt in case of spillage en route!
I find dresses to be versatile when traveling for work or pleasure. I love the Prana Quinn dress. It packs small and doesn't wrinkle. i can wear leggings and boots underneath it in the winter, bare legs and sandals in the summer. I pair it with a cardigan for work to cover the shoulders or in the colder months.
Speaking of cardigans, I am a big fan of mix and match clothes when traveling: fitted tees, cardigan and neutral pants (like jeans or black pants). That way any shirt will go with any pant or sweater.

Same here. I always pack a pashmina/loop scarf. You never know when/how it'll come in handy. I also bring a few cardigans and change up the t-shirts. This keeps my suitcase light. When traveling, I try and keep to one color scheme. That way, I can mix and match without over packing.
My black knit pants or long skirts. They don't wrinkle, go with everything, can be dressed up or dressed down, they're super comfortable, and take a LOT less room in my suitcase than jeans.
I travel light or heavy, depending on the destination and the availability of luggage assistance. For me, the one thing I can't do without no matter what the destination is a pair of really comfortable shoes. I'd never take new shoes on a trip. It's so hard for me to find really comfortable shoes that I wouldn't have much hope in being able to find a pair at my destination, so I make sure I have two pairs (one to wear and one to pack) with me.
The other thing that I always take, although this doesn't come under the heading of clothing or accessories, is a travel sleep-sound machine and a couple of pairs of earplugs. With the machine going and wearing earplugs I don't hear anything, so noisy hotel rooms don't affect me.

If you have a smart phone, ditch the sound machine and download an app. I love falling asleep to the sound of ocean waves in the middle of New York City. LOL!
