Very Casual
I'm in Cali, and the big church in which I grew up was fairly conservative (women didn't wear pants to Sunday service, although if you did, you weren't turned away at the door--just maybe looked at oddly by a few people). The church I attend now though is pretty casual, and it's really whatever you feel comfortable wearing: for some women, it's a "traditional church dress", others wear casual business (pants and a twin set) and still others rock the jeans or khakis every week. Almost no one rocks the suits with the rhinestones or feathers with the big church hat though, although if that floats your boat, you'd be welcomed to do so. The same type of flexible dress code goes for men and youth, and on the last Sunday of the month, the choir even dresses in jeans and t-shirts.
Frankly, it was one of the requirements when I looked at a new church home though...I'm so lazy, that if there's ANY excuse I can find, I will use it, so I didn't want the fact that I didn't have a pair of clean hosiery or didn't feel like dressing up to prevent me from worshiping on Sunday.
