What kind of clothes do French teens wear?

What kind of clothes should I wear in Santo Domingo? How is the weather?

• I am heading to the DR in a week (with 3 other guys) and I'm wondering what kinds clothes I should bring. Obviously I'll bring plenty of shorts and t-shirts but I was wondering what kind of clothes I should bring to wear out at night. We are planning on going to clubs and bars at night and I've heard that people wear long pants at night. What kind of pants, shoes etc should I bring for the clubs etc? I have also been reading the weather forecast and it looks like it has been raining. How is the rain there? I've heard it might just be quick bursts of rain and it is still warm. Is this the case? Should I bring any particular type of clothing for the rainy days/nights? Thanks for your help.

• Answer:

  The weather is normally very humid, especially if you're going in the summer. July and August are the worst and you will literally feel like you're walking in a shower all day, but if you're going in a week it wont be OVERLY humid, but still very hot. Bring loose fitting clothes, shorts, sandals, etc..nobody really dresses up fancy down there. As far as the rain goes..don't bother looking at the weather forecasts online. It will always tell you there is going to be rain in the Caribbean because of the type of climate. DR has it's rainy season but now isn't the time and you most likely won't encounter any rain. If you do, you're right it is just in quick bursts.
