There are many packing lists available. The basics are easy though.

Pick a couple of your favorite skirts or pants. 3 will suffice, 4 if they are very lightweight.
If you go for more skirts, they are easier to keep clean. imo
Pack a few tops 5 perhaps... One of these outfits should take you somewhere nice to dinner or an opera etc. Black is good. Other colors to mix with a basic are best. Make sure all mixes and matches.
google "Packing List" Everyone has an opinion, you'll know what works for you.

Know this: anything you think you'll need you can buy or you probably won't need it.

When I'm packing, I remember that my ancestors came to America in the bottom of a ship and traveled half way across the country. They survived.



Take only your favorite walking shoes (emphasis on shoeS) Make sure they are really comfortable. Some people will say wear 1 pack one. Not me, wear 1 pack 2. (ancestors or not)

If you don't do a lot of walking, start now and bring moleskins for blisters.

Pack a lovely scarf, simple jewelry and a sturdy, comfortable and pleasing day bag. Not huge not fancy but make sure it closes up well and tucks under your arm.

Also have a small, very small, 1st aid kit. bandaids, aspirin whatever you use when you have a small medical need. My 1st aid kit is in a small 4X5 inch pouch. Because I don't want to have to explain to someone in a language I'm not very good at that I have an allergy. You probably won't need it and I remember to replenish it every year.

Enjoy your trip
