Maya’s 3-Piece Capsule Formula
Start your day with the tankini as a bodysuit—tuck it into high-waisted linen trousers and throw on an open-knit cardigan. That’s your coffee run look. As the sun climbs, shed the trousers, swap the cardigan for a sheer kaftan, and slide into your raffia mules for a beach stroll.
For sunset, layer a crisp white linen shirt over the tankini, unbuttoned low, and add a long pendant necklace. Swap the mules for heeled sandals if you’re heading to dinner. The tankini is your base layer—it transitions because you treat it as a top, not just swimwear. Accessories do the heavy lifting: a wide-brim hat, layered gold chains, and a woven tote complete the narrative.
