Q. I'm traveling to the Italian lakes in mid-September for my honeymoon. I will be staying at Villa d'Este and Grand Hotel Tremezzo. Any wardrobe suggestions?
Catherine Gluszek, via email

A. Fall in northern Italy calls for chic attire that transitions well from day to night. Since temperatures this time of year will be around the mid-60s, opt for layering pieces that don't skimp on style. Villa d'Esteis the perfect place to channel your inner celebrity with elegant accessories—the grande dame has hosted everyone from Greta Garbo to George Clooney. Pack comfortable dresses and lightweight trousers for evening activities, like a fondue dinner at Grand Hotel Tremezzo's L'Escale wine bar. It's your honeymoon, so have fun with your attire and let Lake Como's old-time glamour inspire you!
