Pick three fonts. Italic versions of a font are themselves fonts for the purposes of this discussion. One font for headers, one font for content ("copy"), one for accent details (such as captions, blockquotes, etc.) A fixed-width font for code is exempt, 'cause it's code.

Look at a book, newspaper, or magazine. Notice the conventions used: headings are typically sans-serif, copy text is typically serif, and accent can be whatever. Sans-serif is difficult to read large blocks of text in; there is no regular horizontal line shape for your eye to follow easily, whereas serif fonts "flatten" themselves into visually distinct lines.
