Packing - Women - Cool Weather
By cool weather I mean 'not hot' - think summertime in a temperate climate or spring/fall in a warm place. You should have a general idea of what to expect weather-wise and plan accordingly. This is just a guideline, so if you are going to a place that gets a lot of rain bring a rain jacket. If you can get away with just taking a small umbrella and a light windbreaker in the off-chance of rain, then do that instead.
This is an example of what I would take on a 2-3 week trip with access to laundry facilities and traveling with carry-on size luggage only.
