Making fetch happen! Rachel McAdams takes a break from Southpaw promotion to walk her dog in Los Angeles

Rachel McAdams took advantage of some rare down-time on Thursday while out and about in Los Angeles.

The 36-year-old actress was spotted out with her sister, Kayleen McAdams, and her dog, George, outside of the Sycamore Kitchen restaurant.

With a major movie debuting in one week and a high-profile TV show on-the air, such leisurely activities may not be common for Rachel.

Casual dress seemed to be the standard for Rachel and sister on the sunny day, with a Pittsburgh baseball cap even hiding the actress' slightly messy hair.

While sunglasses hid Rachel's eyes, she did not seem to be wearing any makeup and only a couple of rings were worn as jewellery.

Rachel - who uttered the now infamous line 'stop trying to make fetch happen' in 2004's Mean Girls in an effort to discourage her friend from using the slang term 'fetch' to mean 'cool' - certainly had a cool look about her as she enjoyed some quality time with her dog.

She had on a button-down, denim shirt of pale blue for her top, while black jeans with gold zippers in the legs served as her trousers.

Casual look: Although she added some glamour for press interviews at another time that day, Rachel stayed with comfortable clothes for her down-time

Keep it chic in a chambray

What more do you need to know other than THEE darling Rachel McAdams wore a short sleeved chambray shirt before you instantly JUMP down Madewell's throat to buy the same exact one?

Because basically that's what we just did. And we know we won't regret it because chambray's are such a timeless classic that will never go out of style.

Madewell's loose fit, short sleeve version is especially charming because it works great with ankle pants like Rachel wore but we especially love the way Madewell styled it-- tied at the waist for a more beachy look.

Gold-strapped, thong-style sandals with no heel finished off the Mean Girls actress' outfit.

Her sister, a makeup artist, was similarly casual in a white, sleeveless T-shirt and cut-off denim shorts.

As for George, the small dog Rachel got when she was together with ex Ryan Gosling, he seemed content with just a collar and a leash.

The dog did not, unfortunately, seem to get any off-leash time to play fetch.

Premiering in North America on July 24, Southpaw is Rachel's newest film project - she has been promoting the film throughout the past week.

Rachel even made press appearances on the same day as her outing, joining co-star Jake Gyllenhaal at the Beverly Hills Four Seasons hotel with a much more formal look.

Long-time companion: George has been Rachel's dog for several years, initially shared with ex Ryan Gosling
