Maya’s 3-Piece Capsule Formula
For a day at the beach, I’d layer a crisp white linen shirt over the suit, unbuttoned and tied at the waist. Add a wide-brimmed straw hat and those raffia mules, and you’re ready for a seaside lunch. The shirt doubles as sun protection and gives you that effortless, ‘I just threw this on’ vibe.
As the sun sets, swap the linen for a sheer, flowing kaftan or a silk sarong. Slide on strappy leather sandals—gold or tan—and add delicate gold jewelry: a thin chain, a hoop earring. You’ve just transitioned from swim to soirée without a full outfit change. Keep a small crossbody bag with your essentials, and you’re golden.
