Thermals really are the secret to minimal packing with less bulk, they’re amazing: https://www.travelfashiongirl.com/best-thermal-underwear-for-women/

This is a sample packing list for the cold – You can use the principles to create your own capsule wardrobe according to your own clothing preferences, not necessarily to pack what is shown in the example: https://www.travelfashiongirl.com/how-to-pack-for-cold-weather/

In reply to Sandra. Get a really good waterproof coat from a reliable brand like Helly Hansen or North Face. If it’s rainy+cold, layer a fleece or packable down jacket under for warmth. Uniqlo does a good one.

Thank you for such a great “starting place”. I would love to see more of Newfoundland and Labrador during months other than summer months and these tips are fantastic!

I’m getting ready to travel to Italy in December. A friend recommended your FB group and to put it mildly – mind blown. I never in a million years thought of packing this way and wearing clothes a few times to make different outfits. And the packing itself, my gosh! I can’t wait to put my capsule together. Thank you thank you thank you!!

Thank you so much for having all of this information! I always have anxiety when it comes to packing for new places, especially when those places are cold (I’m from Texas so I only know hot weather). Not only are the clothing options functional, they’re SO STINKING CUTE too!

Something I do not see mentioned is slippers when packing. I hate being barefoot and always bring slippers if we traveling to a cool or cold climate. Do you have any recommendations of slippers that would easily pack?

Thank you,
Kelly

Thanks for the invaluable information for capsule wardrobes and most important staying warm! I am much better with heat and live in a tropical climate so I am learning so much from your blogs with regard to best fabrics, classic clothing items that will carry over year to year.
I will be using your tips on our upcoming month tour of Europe and I’m determined to use a carry on and I’m certain now I will be able to thanks to this blog.

I was lucky enough to buy several JCrew Tippi sweaters before they were discontinued. In the winter, I wear the 32 Degrees lightweight base layer top underneath for extra warmth. They pack small enough to carry in my backpack.
