London in December is more often wet than cold, but might still feel pretty cold to your Texas senses.
Layers is the answer.
Bring the clothes you would wear in the coldest weather you are used to, or if that is colder, when you go somewhere were the air conditioner is set to 'too cold'.
Expect to wear several layers on top of each other, T-shirt, long sleeved T, shirt, sweater, fleece vest, and as outer layer a rain jacket or coat that is water and wind proof.
Also wear layers on your legs, thin trousers or leggings under your jeans, or even long johns.
Shoes you can walk in all day, but ones that are pretty much waterproof and in which you can wear warm socks.
And of course, your toilet bag with all you really need, like shampoo, tooth brush and paste and a comb.
How much money you need depends on what you want to do, where you will be staying, how much you have already paid beforehand and things like that.
London is expensive and as tourist you will want to buy more than you should, so bring twice as much money as you would to an other city.
The best way to 'bring' your money will be to leave it in your bank account and make sure you have your bank card ready for use abroad, and your bank expecting that use.
With that card you can use the ATMs in London and get pound notes out of the wall when needed.
Credit cards will work in shops and hotels, but will not be as useful for small amounts of money.
You do not need to bring anything, but I would suggest your phone, camera, both with chargers, and some book or so.
If you bring Electrics or Electronics, remember that the power as well as the plugs are different, power is much stronger, so if your tool is not ready for it, you fry it.
Blow dryer will be available in almost every hotel, even in hostels.
Most phone and camera chargers these days can handle the difference, but do double check, it should read 110-230 on it, or 100/240 or something like that. If there is no mention of the higher number, do not use it in England.

Going to D.C. next year on March for Life. What to pack?
Rafael
1300$ budget. I am taking my Xbox in a mobile case. What to buy or bring. Basically give me a list.
Answer
What month? The weather in D.C. can range from blistering hot ( 90's to 100 degrees) humid weather to cold (20's) snowy miserable weather. From Nov. through March pack for that range in temps/weather. From April to Oct. the weather can still be anything from 40 to 95+ degrees so you need to pack for that. The expression in Md. is 'If you don't like the weather wait 10 mins and it will change.' D.C. is on the Potomac so that can affect the local conditions a bit as well.
I'd pack light colored, sunblock fabric clothing for the warmer months including a sunblock wide brim hat to protect against sunburn to the eyes and skin, wrap around dark gray sunglasses with UVA/UVB protection, a small digital camera to take pics (leave the Xbox at home....too much to see and do in D.C. to stick your head in an Xbox during a 'once in a lifetime' experience),2 pairs of GOOD walking shoes, lots of white athletic type socks, 1 pairs shorts /long pants (get the long ones that have a zip off section at the knee and can easily be converted into shorts ...light weight, sunblock, 'convertible'), light weight 'wicking' tops to wear under the long sleeve sunblock shirts. good sunscreen, refillable water bottles, waterproof watch, cell in small waterproof zip type 'dry bag', and so on. Take a jacket, sweater, coat depending on the month you go. Take 'leggins' if you are going in a cold month.
I once had to pack for a month long trip and was only allowed to take 7 lbs. of 'luggage' including any carry on bag. I learned very quickly how to pack effectively using lightweight sunblock 'convertible' clothes. Everything necessary was in that 7 pounds!
