Travel NYCessities - Beauty and the Pitch

I absolutely love traveling.

I absolutely hate packing.

And the worse part about packing… people asking me what they should bring to NYC every time they visit. I hate this question. It’s just so hard to figure out because nothing in NY ever goes according to plan… not even the weather. And I really just want to be like, girl, use weather.com and figure it out = mean = no longer friends = no more visitors = SUCKS. So you may remember way back when I wrote this extra informative and very helpful post about all things you need to live in NYC (if you don’t, click here and say you do) and decided that I will save myself the pesky packing Q’s and just provide the extra informative and very helpful A’s. Enter Travel NYCessities:

So what do you need to successfully make it through a weekend in NY. After much thought this is the best I have no matter what NYC throws at you. Drum roll please:

Number 1: Your iPhone which really means your instagram. Don’t act like you don’t want to tweet cool pics of the skyline with #too #many #hashtags. That also means your charger! I don’t share my juice.

Number 2: Big bag beats small bag always.

Number 3: Always and forever a little black dress goes far… really really far. For all occasions. Swear.

Number 4: Sunglasses Rock Always Can You (read backwards or use a mirror maybe. Let me know if that works?)

Number 5: Arm swag too much to pack – gold watch. Done. And lastly,

Number 6: A sweater (or the trendy version known as a parka). You southerners, stop acting like you can handle the chill. Just bring it and layer as needed. Yes, even in the summer. Just. Bring. It. And ok, I share my sweaters (if I really really really like you.)

When it comes to NY less is more. Translation: bring less, go home with more after the many hours of shopping!

What did I leave out?
