Living the Cali Lifestyle: How to Get the Look

By  | 

California is the most geographically diverse state in the US with deserts, mountains, beaches, and forests to visit as well as plentiful choices for major cities and small towns to live in. California is an extremely multicultural state, and it also has some of the best schools in the country and a diverse range of job options. Of course, California is also a trendsetting state, especially when it comes to fashion, and it’s hard to resist the allure of Hollywood.

With a population of nearly 40 million, it’s clear that people from all over the world are loving the Cali lifestyle. If you’re planning on moving in and want to get that signature “trendy but casual” California look, here are some things to keep in mind.

Beachwear

Even if you aren’t actually going to the beach, the look works well in many California coastal cities and towns. Cali styles for both men and women skew towards the casual and easy to wear. For men looking to keep up a good physical appearance, it can be as simple as a button-up shirt and some faded jeans. If you’re looking to go even more casual, you can do fine with a tie-dye T-shirt. The modern bohemian style of the hippies is still alive and well.

Ladies can find flattering swimwear and even sustainable, eco-friendly pieces from the LA brand Hot as Hell. Panama straw hats are also quite popular on the beach. Sailor pants are common when night approaches, as are cropped sweatshirts and lightweight sundresses.

City Style

The cities of Southern California see men adopting a business casual to the extreme style like the blazer with a T-shirt look seen in popular movies like The Social Network or being worn by Bitcoin millionaires. The good news is you don’t need to be a tech guru to ape this style, and there are plenty of online collections to draw inspiration from.

Women looking to keep a low profile in the city can blend in pest wearing pants or jeans. Casual T-shirts and slip-on sneakers are hard to go wrong with, and tank tops with jeans shorts are popular in the summer. During the fall and winter seasons, denim and army jackets start coming out along with scarfs.

Hollywood Smile

Your fashion game may be on point, but you may still find it difficult to be confident in yourself if you don’t feel like you have a beautiful smile. Thanks to an orthodontist in Encino, you can get any orthodontic treatment you may need for a new smile you can be proud of. Treatment options will vary depending on your specific needs, but you won’t necessarily have to get traditional metal braces. Thanks to more advanced technology, you can get ceramic braces with brackets that blend into your teeth. If you don’t need major work, you may even be able to get Invisalign, which is practically unnoticeable. These days, there’s really no reason to fear getting braces at any age, and it can even be a great choice for your dental hygiene in addition to your appearance.

You can buy the clothes, the accessories, and the smile, but it’s even more important to make sure you’re taking care of your body. In addition to fashion, Californians are often the first or early adopters of new health trends, and living there may give you the push you need to look after your health more seriously.
