In some of her earliest sightings in the Golden State, she oozed cool in boxy Loro Piana tailoring; opted for casual, pared-back glam in Jane Birkin-esque crisp-shirt-and-jeans combos; and stepped up her red carpet game in Oscar-worthy glam from US-born labels such as Harbison Studio and Carolina Herrera.
