Maya’s 3-Piece Capsule Formula

Day to sunset, this piece is a chameleon. Start with a white linen shirt worn open over the suit, sleeves rolled, and a pair of raffia mules. Add a woven tote and oversized sunglasses—you’re instantly resort-ready. For sunset, swap the shirt for a cropped knit cardigan in a contrasting hue, and switch to strappy leather slides. The high cut keeps your legs looking endless, so you can skip the shorts and let the suit be the hero.

Accessories should stay minimal—a delicate gold chain, a single cuff, or a pair of hoop earrings. The square neckline is a natural jewelry perch, so use it. For hair, a slicked-back bun or low chignon emphasizes the architectural lines. And if you’re heading to dinner, add a silk sarong tied at the hip, not the waist, to maintain that long, uninterrupted line.
