Maya’s 3-Piece Capsule Formula
Start your day with the slip dress alone, layered over a simple white tee or a linen cami for that ‘just threw it on’ vibe. Add the blazer when the sun dips, and swap your sandals for sleek mules as the evening settles. I always carry a silk scarf in my bag—it can be a headband, a belt, or a wrap.
For sunset, let the blazer fall off one shoulder, add a delicate gold necklace, and switch to a small structured clutch. The outfit transitions from a lazy brunch to a rooftop toast without missing a beat. It’s all about the layers—each one gives you a new mood, a new smile.
