Any brand will do, but this is one of our favorites.
The highly on-trend blazer makes for the perfect light jacket in case the weather doesn't call for a coat—or, alternatively, if you need to layer one over it.
If you're on a budget, the camel coat always looks expensive.
We love this oversize style and suggest wearing it on the plane to save suitcase space.
A chunky knit is a must when the temperatures drop below 60.
Speaking from experience, you can wear this Reformation top anywhere from work to dinner to drinks to a party, making it perfect for travel.
Opt for a dress you can layer multiple ways, e.g., over pants, under a sweater, over a tee, or all three.
Remember what we said about the dress? You can also wear this under sweaters for extra warmth on chillier days.
If you don't have room for multiple bags, bring one you can wear both day and night, like this standout style from Building Block.
Tights are not only back in style this season but also highly functional for keeping you warm.
This one's a no-brainer, but in case you're packing in a rush, don't forget your jeans!
NYC means a lot of walking, so you'll want a comfortable shoe option. Sneakers are perfect for both the plane and everyday wear.
Pro tip: Block-heel ankle boots can serve as both daytime and night-out shoes. They're equally comfortable and flattering.
