What do you wear for a day in the parks?

What do you wear during your day at the parks to feel comfertable? I'm going during Easter so how will the weather be during the day/night? Thanks!

Usually I wear cotton short sleeve tops with cotton capris and wear Keen sandals. I also carry a small backpack.

I try to wear short sleeved shirts and comfortable shorts that will dry quickly if they get wet (my DS7 drags us on every water ride there is). We all wear VERY comfortable sandals, as walking around in wet, squishy sneakers will also put a damper on your day. I also pack a change of clothes for my kids (in a ziploc bag - great for putting the wet clothes in) in a backpack.

A full day in the parks for us is comfortable clothes - tshirts and shorts/pants (depending what the weather said in the morning), socks and tennis shoes (sandals are not comfortable for us for more than one day, so we stick with tennis shoes -you can always buy new socks in the parks), and a light jacket/sweatshirt (for the evening -tie around waist). Also a fanny pack for snacks, money, small camera.

We don't leave the parks during the day, so we pack light and don't use lockers. Have fun!!

Cargo shorts/pants, shirt appropriate for weather, layered up or down.

Foam viser/sunglasses

Alternate days on tennis shoes/walking sandals depending on weather.

I'm not a shorts kinda girl, so I usually wear capris and a t-shirt (usually both Old Navy, 'cause that's where I always seem to shop), and my extremely comfy sneakers, because I'm also not a sandal type of girl since I was at WDW for my senior trip and forgot to put sunscreen on the top of my feet and my toes!

Baseball hat, sunglasses, messenger bag and LOTS of sunscreen!

I like to wear a sleeveless or short sleeved knit cotton shirt, skorts (but also sometimes opt for either walking shorts or capris), a visor, sunglasses, and comfy walking shoes/sandals (usually my TEVAs--but I do try to alternate different styles of footwear throughout our WDW vacation, in order to help avoid any chance of blistering). Also, I use plenty of sunscreen at all times.

Last year I did wear a sleeveless sweater top and a medium length skirt with comfortable sandals for one evening out to dinner and the F&W Fest at Epcot... and that was very comfy and not a problem at all. I don't think I'd want to try dressing like that if we were planning to do a lot of 'thrill rides', or even for spending an entire day at MK or DAK. But it was a nice change of pace from typical park attire, was fine for touring around World Showcase, and really looked nice for our photopass photos at Epcot that evening.

Thanks for the info. I'll probally stick to tennis shoes also.

If I am planning on some water rides, I wear a tankini under a pair of boardshorts (or other quick drying shorts) and a rashguard on top. As far as footwear, I like Merrell sport sandals.

I wear tank tops and comfertable shorts flip flops or runners! I like to tan so the less on top to tan me the better while outside I can't go home white I am on holidays hehe

Khaki walking shorts, basic Target-t-shirt, broken in sneakers, and the lightweight jacket or cardigan around the waist. I'm always freezing, and we typically go in the fall, so where the shorts are comfortable, the jacket is an essential. If it's going to be colder I'll go with a pair of capris.
