I'm going to be walking everywhere and I'm not sure what I should bring with me, so can I have some advice from someone who has traveled there or is living there now.

I would say the closest climate in the U.S. to London would be Portland, OR. Maybe a bit less damp, but not by much if you are staying close to the Thames. Seattle in the summer is a lot like it too. Invest in a good umbrella (still called bumbershoots?) that is easy to carry. You can use it for any drizzle in London and shade in southern Italy. A packable windbreaker should suffice in London, as long as you aren't going in the depth of winter. I usually go back in November, so its more of a requirement then, but sometimes you can get a surprise even in summer.
