For everyone who commented on my 'Tale of Two (Travel) Capsules' - I thank you! After consideration of tips and advice, I've assembled a new and improved travel capsule.
Suz and l'Abeille suggested checking the weather (I'm seeing everything from 'feels like' 30degC to 18degC - but no rain. And Toronto girl, and a friend from the gym commented on warm days and cool nights. Joy mentioned mosquitos and sun. Angie, Janet, and The Cat suggested more variety in layers/toppers. Votes were nearly tied for #1 red, white and blue vs #2 black, white, blush, and olive.
So, travel capsule #3 is black, white, blue, blush, and olive. There are more light weight sweaters that can be worn alone or layered, light weight long sleeved tops (protection from UV and bugs), and I've doubled up on toppers and scarves. Also coming with me is a new Coach wardrobe pet I stumbled upon while thrifting.
Since we have a big 'ole SUV, and DH is leaving his golf clubs at home, we have lots of room. I'm packing a separate kit bag for sports/workout gear (bathing suit, hoody, yoga pants, running shoes, etc.) that may or may not get used.
(FWIW, the Ikat jean jacket has been on just about every trip I've taken in the past 6 years and is still going strong!).
Any last minute advice?
