A trip to New Orleans is guaranteed to be a great time—now to ensure you arrive with the perfect pieces in tow. Things can get pretty hot & humid in The Big Easy.

Here’s what to wear in New Orleans:

Bring breathable fabrics along: 

To keep comfortable & cool while exploring all the town has to offer, opt for breathable fabrics. Be sure to make room in your suitcase for some cotton sundresses or linen shorts, as these natural fabrics allow for more air flow & are ideal for any warmer climate this time of year.

Bring your comfiest shoes: 

During the day, reach for comfortable sandals or slip-on sneakers while sightseeing. Try a more vibrant dress with wedges for a night out.

Be prepped for surprise storms: 

You may encounter thunderstorms while there, so be sure to also pack one lightweight layer, such a slim trench coat.

Enjoy your trip in New Orleans and be sure to leave some room for those famed beignets!
