The quintessential Californian girl is all about a laid back, stylish vibe that celebrates casual chic as the warmer weather breezes in.
Californian chic channels the easy, hippie-luxe vibe of designer Isabel Marant with her staple denims, whimsical florals and floaty fabrics with an edge of perfectly tousled hair and chunky gold or silver. While this trend is perfect for both comfort and style, often the most casual looks require the most decisive styling and construction.
By choosing a few key pieces to mix and match, and several statement accessories to put your individual stamp on the Californian style, you'll give Boho Queens Kate Bosworth, Sienna Miller and Kate Moss a run for their -oh-so-cool-casual-chic reputations.
The cornerstone of your Californian look is denim, denim, denim. A cool pair of cut-offs in pale or vintage blue work well with the rest of your wardrobe or brighten up your summer outfits with a staple pair of pop-colour denim jeans or capris. Add floaty cottons, pretty pastels or layers of floral and vintage lace to hit that hint of hippie. No matter how you work this trend, adopting an effortless chic mindset will help you tap the trend of Los Angeles luxe meets girl-next-door.
