I sort of have her wearing one wardrobe that I want but she's added an item to it that's not on the list and it's is part of her armor layout, so I don't want to remove it from her inventory. I say part of her armor but it had no armor-rating, only enchantment. I hate to travel without her but I'll do as you suggest In addition to her wardrobe, she may also wear jewelry and winter clothing (cloaks and hoods) if you allow her to (this is also the default setting)

You've mentined she used to wear those mod items before, so when did that stop working? Perhaps when you go back to the older save to avoid the animations problem or later?
The description in configuration messagebox should change when you switch between the options. I don't remember the exact wording, but "Combat" would allow her to put on armor while wearing that wardrobe and "non combat" would not (correct me if I got it backwards, been a while since I saw that messagebox).
Fresh start with the wardrobe system seems like a best idea, a method to do so in game is described as follows (perhaps the exact wording of the dialogues may be a bit off).
1 - talk to Vilja; select "Let's talk about traveling together..." 2 - select "regarding your outfits..." 3 - scroll down (there are many options here, select the one that tells her she can wear whatever she wants, with "(default)" at the end 4 - step 3 should reset her wardrobe behavior; swap out the problematic clothing items in her inventory for some vanilla items (don't empty out her inventory with no clothing or armor, otherwise some items may be stuck in her wardrobe configuration inventory) 5 - dimiss her and wait 1 ingame day just to be safe 6 - recruit her again and give her the items you want on her and set your wardrobe preferences.
See if that works...

Maybe you should test them one at a time?
Not the best advice, but I would suggest you to switch to some other followers mod that has the features you are currently enjoying and compatible with Vilja (as long as you don't use the mod follower commands on Vilja, which won't be necessary as Vilja already has all the full-fledged features), such as amazing follower tweaks (AFT), ultimate follower overhaul (UFO, which I use). Either of these mods should combine the needs of the mods you mentioned. As for followers keeping up with you, I recommend convenient horses, which included dynamic riding speed for followers to catch up with you.

Just posting here that Dragon Break may conflict with Vilja as it prevent Vilja's chatting behavior from running. And as Vilja's quest is heavily depend on dialogues, Dragon Break may prevent some quest from progressing properly.
I actually haven't use Dragon Break myself, just relating the info from Nexus. But I will be off to study the mod in CK now (gotta brace myself in the adult section...)
EDIT: Not the expert in CK, but quickly looked through the esp details, there are a number of empty INFO. Tried checking quest use info to see where they are used, but couldn't find them. Perhaps there are better ways to check how and where each dialogue topic info is used?

So which mod did you disable to get Vilja wearing clothes, the followers mod or the feminine walking mod? And which multiple followers mod are you using?
Does she wear anything again if you initiate conversation with her in the house? If not, does her home outfit display properly on other followers?

I had an animation problem which is happily resolved and now, I have issues with Vilja wearing wardrobes. I have selected the wardrobe for each listed scenario and there there is an arrow pointing to each garment piece that I have chosen in the selection window. I have told her to auto switch between her wardrobes but she won't. I have gone in directly and told her to wear a specific wardrobe but she won't. She does, however complain incandescently about being naked in the city Th clothing is not from the vanilla files, rather, it is imported from mods that I have downloaded. This, at first, may seem like an incompatibility issue but before my animation woes, she had been wearing these wardrobes without incident, even those with zero weight. Would enchanting these articles of clothing allow her to become aware of them perhaps, or would it add to the issue, with her then viewing them as armor? Reread your posts, and a few questions for you:
Have you tampered with Skyrim Vilja the same way you did with Oblivion Vilja? When Vilja complains about being nude, is she actually nude or wearing something? Perhaps something from other mods? What are these clothing mods you are using? (if your mod lists hasn't changed since you post it last time, are they from Craftable Clothes and Robes?)
A few suggestions for you: Give Vilja her original outfits, and tell her she can wear whatever she wants (which reset wardrobe preferences). Dismiss her and see if she wears her outfits properly (ie dress in daytime, night gown to bed). If she is fine, then recruit her set the wardrobe with vanilla clothings, and check that. If that also works, then that should narrow the problem down to the modded clothing.
EDIT: I keep thinking that there's something strange going on with your save, even with your animation problem, you went about avoiding it by reverting to an older save. But maybe something buggy already exists in the previous saves...dunno...are you using mods conservatively? or have you been swapping out and adding mods with the same character over time?

Tom, a few questions;
Do you use custom face for Vilja? Do you use NPC editor? Any body/skeleton mods? When did this problem start (only recently I assumed)? When the problem started, did you recall changing your mod lists or making any other game-changing changes? Her head is only invisible during fights but not other times? What happens during a friendly fight?
My first impression is a corrupt save, as my dragonborn have experienced invisible body parts in that horribly messed up save, but don't despair yet

You mean this problem exists when you met Vilja in the Bannered Mare? Is she already nude at the inn? or only after started following you around? Have you tried telling her she can wear whatever she wants (default setting to disregard your wardrobe preferences)? Also try dismissing her and recruit her again after waiting maybe around 3 ingame days.
EDIT: mewgull as for the hottub situation, it seems the hottub script has termnated prematurely when Vilja starts her important conversation (which of course has another script). This happens because there could only be one script acting on a actor at a time. Didn't know Riverside Shack has a hottub outside, at first I thought you were talking about Highview Cottage.

Having been using UFO for quite some time, UFO commands do not show up on Vilja at all in my game even when UFO is loaded after Vilja.
Can you describe more in depth when/how Vilja stopped working? Did it happen all the sudden without any reasonably game changes on your part? From what you've said, it seems that all she does is just standing like a mannequin and warp to you? What happens if she is leading then you asked to lead for a brief while?

I am always neutral about kill cams, except when the kill cam doesn't kill... =.=
This usually happens when I am standing on a ledge and sniping an enemy with greatest eagle eye precision and high archery damage, and even the game decides it was an headshot, until the physics department decided the arrow should hit the ledge 1 foot in front of me instead of the enemy...

As an windows enthusiast, I actually do NOT recommend using cleanmem. Cleanmem is a program created back in the 2000/XP era and does exactly what it is advertised to do. However, Windows 7 handles memory in a different way than Windows XP does, instead of using barely what it needs (XP), 7 gives more resources to the task it deems important for efficiency reason, and retract those resources when a new/higher priority task appears. Thus, cleanmem is continuously disrupting windows 7's decision on using memory. Of course, Cleanmem would have a visible improvement on a system with small amount of memory, but I reckon that's not the case with ppl playing with skyrim.
Another point to make: Skyrim is a 32-bit program, therefore it's memory addresses is limit to 4gb (while interestingly, 4gb machines must be a 64-bit setup). No need to fret about memory if you have already got 4gb of ram, and some more on virtual memory.
As with CTDs, it's the amount of data the game engine is handling exceeds the engine's capabilities, not the hardware limits on your system. It might be helpful to know that since Skyrim is a ported game from consoles (xbox/ps3), these games are cpu-intensive and not so much graphically (being said, the quality of your cpu is more important than the amount of memory you have once you passed the 4gb threshold). therefore, modern systems are usually far superior to xbox 360 and ps3 in terms of hardware capabilities. Then why are CTDs happening? like what Sniffles said, but simply put, the game engine (you should think of the engine as an operating system) cannot handle all the processes with the given resources, which is either exceeding its addressing capabilities or exceeding what is defined by your ini settings.
EDIT: Often saves can avoid CTDs and keep playing, but if you've been playing Skyrim with habits that leads to game's instability, saves would only grew in unresaonable size and eventually be corrupted. Tread your feet in modding carefully...

I hope your vilja stays fine in the future, but if you do run into trouble, dismiss all your followers and make sure your current follower count is 0 before recruiting them can usually reset their follower ai behavior.
Vilja doesn't necessarily stay home like you tell her to, if she tends to wander to random locations without obvious reason, she has either made up her mind to visit that location when you are gone, or she is in previous ai loop that made her wanted to visit that place. You can wait her out, or recruit her and dismiss her again, and see if she goes back home or heads to the same location again.

If you haven't uninstall Vilja yet, could you check the number of followers your character has via the console?

From my experience, if you accidentally told Vilja to lay out 2 bedrolls, only the last one get removed from "Let's go!" command. To get rid of the extra bedroll, have her relax again, and follow you again. ...tedious, but i don't have to pay rent...
