Luggage And Bags: Anything goes... depending on how long your staying for and where. You don't need anything super fancy unless for some oddly reason it calls for it, but otherwise, your travel bags are fine. Hey! Some people you plastic bags!
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Comfy walking around shoes. Depending on the season you want to dress, it varies. I wouldnt wear open toed sandles during the winter and heavy snow shoes during the summer. In New York its usually an extreme of whatever season its in. For example, winter can get to be very cold and wet and summer can be very hot!! It rains like everywhere else but unless the news caster doesnt predict it, dont worry about buying a umbrella. You can always news the old fashioned newspaper or coat if u get caught in an unexpected down pour.
Toiletries & Medical Supplies: If your staying at a hotel they will provide all this for you. You might even get lucky and get toothpaste too! But if not, i will bring my own toothpaste and toothbrush and anything else u need just in case. But if you find yourself short, no worries- there are literally little convenient stores every block or so.
Photo Equipment: There are lots of tourist shops, ESPECIALLY at Times Square if you like throw aways. But any camera will do. And a good thing about NYC is you don't need a zoom lens for anything!
Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: I HIGHLY suggest u dont go to Coney Island Beach or Jones Beach if you want to enjoy yourself. You'll find things in the sand that shouldnt even BE at a beach! But the Hamptons have really great sandy beaches. Its a little bit out of the way so u might want to make it an All Day trip if u go.
Camping-- there is Cedar Point but then again thats out in the Hamptons. Im sure you can go up towards the Bronx and near White Plains and find some good camp grounds. If your interested in Camping, let me know and i'll get some info for you.
