Luggage and bags: A small backpack to keep your camera, purse and other small items in, l found carrying anything around at all will add to your discomfort as it is so hot there. Even with a backpack the humidity makes you sweat and feel uncomfortable. Carry water with you at all times, a face cloth and deodorant to freshen up.
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Cotton clothing, it gets really warm and humid it's best to wear shorts and tee-shirts. You might need a cardigan when you enter any of the large department stores / hotels as it gets cold when the air con is on. Some major hotels will not permit you entry with certain types of clothes so be sure to take something suitable like a summer dress and for men cotton trousers and a shirt.
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: All readily available.
Photo Equipment: Your camera or if your really flush buy a new one.
Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: A umbrella comes in handy for those tropical downpours.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: I highly recommend getting a small hand towel to keep in your bag that you will carry around. Between the constant rain during some days and the very warm temps you will finding having something to wipe down with desirable.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: It's mostly sunny all year round. Ideally pack clothes that are light and comfortable, i.e. shorts, t-shirts, loafers/slippers.
Certain dining outlets and clubs (especially those at hotels) have dress codes, so do bring along something semi-formal, such as long pants and covered shoes for men. Ladies seldom have a hard time getting in to such places. For the men, some of these venues that require a certain dress code may turn you away even though you're tourists, so just be mindful.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Light clothing as the weather can get real hot and sticky. Comfortable shoes as one will certainly do a lot of walking in Singapore.
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Mosquito repellant especially if you are going to Night Safari, the Zoo, or the Botanic Garden. Dengue is prevalent at this time.
Miscellaneous: Bottled water!!!

Luggage and bags: The average daily temperature is around 32 c. or 95 degrees f. If you plan to go into any shopping centers for any length of time- you may want a sweater. The airconditioning in Singapore's shopping centers is quite strong. After being in a movie theater-you could be quite stiff and uncomfortable from the cold air.
