NYC 3 nights

NYC blog
The city of cities - oh how I love  New York. Packing for three nights and four days is a breeze - and no checked luggage please! Carry-on and one personal item only: Personal item can be a small duffle, or a large tote.

PACKING LIST:
Black ballet flats
Dressy shoe
Running shoes
Silky ankle pant
Narrow belt
Jeans
T-shirt
Tank top
Pjs
Cardigan
Kimono
Skirt
Hat
Pack away jacket
2x socks


Did I use it all? Not the kimono or the skirt - but that is bc I did not change for dinner the night of US Open. The Jimmy Choo flats not great for long distance walking - so not good for a full day in NYC- in retrospect I wouldn’t have bothered. 

What I wish I had with me?

SecretBody Cleansing Wipes
For when I want to shower but can’t (like a day at the US Open! ).

And am considering a carton that is not hard sided bc Porter broke the wheel off of my suitcase!!!!!







Order online and send to hotel. 
Baby nail clippers/nail file
Empty water bottle
No hat! Unless ball cap


Next time
Newark- only need to be an hour ahead of flight. 
Dinner at 1 hotel
Newark flight - dont go direct to Woodbury Commons- too expensive take bus back from port authority- buy via Groupon
One large suitcase checked. Put duffle bag I. And share with your friend- save $40 each way - $80.



Always

Small carry - on suitcase
