Normally, Prince William and his family showcase their annual Christmas photos in traditional British attire. However, this year, they chose a more laid-back, Cali-inspired look.

From Daily Mail UK:
Well, this is quite the departure. Previous years' Christmas cards from the Waleses have been all woollens and wellies: lots of khaki, checked shirts, hearty outdoor settings, that sort of thing – think Sloanes on safari.
This is far more, dare I say it, California-cool than Norfolk pheasant-shoot.
Stylish, monochrome, relaxed hands-in-pocket, jeans, no socks. (No socks!) Still, at least they're wearing shoes. Granted, plimsolls. But no bare toes. Not yet, at any rate.
It's giving Ralph Lauren (literally: there's a branded polo emblem on Prince George's chest), it's giving Dyson Airwrap hair multi-styler and dryer, it's giving Mr Darcy in a white shirt.
