I've done most of my approaches in flip-flops, sanuks, crocks and approach shoes.
The boots might come in handy on a few occasion or perhaps on some of the more remote dealios (mainly in the west).
But won't be bothered with boots this year either.

Depends, can be shorts & t-shirts or full on down. Pray for best, prepare for worst.
Even in good weather a lightweight windbreaker is a thing to have, as it can get rather windy at times.
