New york, end of August..what did you wear/not need?

[everythingsgoingsouth]

I usually take too much not needed stuff on hols- just in case -
would live some tips on some clever packing
Am going for loose shirts /tshirts with just above knee length skirts for day to night wear. Similar version of this I guess?www.bodenimages.com/productimages/productMedium/17WSPR_WG700_YEL_W01.jpg
Skechers trainers, clarks comfy sandals, fitflops.
what else- will i need coats/waterproofs, jumpers ,jeans etc?
thx

Definitely no jeans required in August! Possibly a lightweight jumper/cardigan just for overly air conditioned restaurants.

There is a chance of very heavy short showers but by the time you have waterproofs on the rain would be finished. Plus way too clammy.

thank you. Never been before. might take my micro brolly instead of a jacket/coat then!

I live in NY. An umbrella is a good idea just in case but you won't be needing a coat/jeans/a jacket. A cardi will be more than adequate and you might not even wear it. It will be humid and sweaty!
