The Academy Award-winning actress skipped the cosmetics which allowed her natural beauty and youthful complexion to shine through.
She flashed a glimpse of her endless stems and koi fish ankle tattoo in the knee-length garb.
A black leather fringed shoulder bag and white sneakers rounded out the Mad Max: Fury Road star's laid-back look.
Charlize shielded her emerald green eyes from the southern California rays in a pair of oversized dark movie star shades.

The South African-born stunner - who portrays mother-of-three Marlo in the movie - wrapped filming earlier this month.
In the film, her character Marlo is gifted a night nanny named Tully by her brother, and the pair forge a unique bond as the unpredictable and sometimes challenging Tully helps Marlo re-gain control of her life.
She stars alongside Ron Livingston, Mackenzie Davis and Mark Duplass in the film which is due in theaters in 2017.
In September, sources told People magazine that Charlize had deliberately gained 35lbs for the role.

Charlize, a known method actor, previously gained 30lbs for the 2003 film Monster, in which she portrayed serial killer Aileen Wuornos.
Her dramatic transformation and stunning performance led her to win 17 awards for the role, including the 2004 Academy Award for Best Actress.
In May, she told British GQ that beauty can work against an actress when it comes to landing strong roles.
'Jobs with real gravitas go to people that are physically right for them and that’s the end of the story,' she said.
'How many roles are out there for the gorgeous, f**king, gown-wearing eight-foot model? When meaty roles come through, I’ve been in the room and pretty people get turned away first.'
