What to pack, when going to New York City !

Helpful Dress Codes:

The temperature varies a great deal by season.  Most New Yorker’s dress in dark colors and are a bit more understated and sophisticated.  After a good overview with a City Highlights Tour, focus on the individual neighborhoods. Walking is the way to really enjoy the City, and that means wearing comfortable, closed toe shoes. Save the high heels for an evening out when you are taking transportation.
Neutral colors work best and are easy to mix and match.  Most good restaurants have dress codes that prohibit jeans, so if you want to leave one item home, that’s the one. Substitute dark slacks instead. Strive for comfortable clothes so that you can layer and interchange pieces.
In case you forgot something, there are literally thousands of boutiques and department stores to obtain those items.  The following carry on basics will be handy:
For men, slacks, casual and dress shirts, a blazer, tie and sweaters with comfortable shoes will be a good carry on wardrobe. Business suits are still appropriate for meetings.
For women, slacks, skirts, jacket or blazer, sweaters and blouses and comfortable shoes are a good option.
Carry on bags are preferable to waiting for luggage at carousels at New York airports.
