Clothing question

Hello!  *Waves*

I have a quick question.  I don't really know what to wear on the airplane over to England.  I was thinking jeans and a long sleeved shirt, with a jacket just in case, but I'm not sure.  Any suggestions?  I'm still debating bringing my cane, but I think that may just be stubbornness on my part.  I know that I always have trouble after sitting still for a long period, even if it's just at the movie theater, but I hate walking with it!  Plus, I'm going to basically have to RUN to catch my connect to London from New York, since my flight lands at 9:45 and my connect departs at 10:30. MEEP!  Cutting it kind of close, airlines!

Anyway, taking all that into account, I don't want to look like a typical American yokal when I arrive in London, so any suggestions?  

This is my wardrobe that I'm bringing so far, by the way:

Two sweaters
Two dresses, both light cotton and spring-ish
A skirt
Two tank tops
One blouse
One pair jeans
A black, very warm hoodie that's more dressier than it sounds

And of course underwear, socks and three pairs of shoes.  *looks shifty*  What?  I have boots with a 3 inch heel, a pair of black flats, and a pair of trainers for regular walking around.  I'm going to wear my brown flats on the plane, since I can slip those off and on easier than my trainers.  And yes, I must have one black and one brown pair.

Sooo.... Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

I always tie the sleeves of a lightweight jacket around my waist when I travel. I find airplanes cold, and you never know what the weather will be when you land. I hope you have a terrific trip.

Thanks! Yes, I find airplanes cold, too. I think I'm going to wear my warm fleece rather than pack it, and that way I can stay warm or dress down if I'm hot.

Thank you! I love traveling, but it's kind of nerve wracking!
