Maya’s 3-Piece Capsule Formula

Styling this piece for a full day is all about layering smartly. Start with a thin silk or cotton camisole under the knit for extra warmth without bulk. Over the coat, add a longline scarf in a contrasting texture, like a chunky wool blend, to draw the eye upward. For footwear, I’d choose chunky leather boots with a slight heel—they give you height and stability on icy sidewalks, and they ground the outfit with a bit of edge.

As the sun sets and you head to a holiday dinner, swap the scarf for a delicate gold necklace and switch your tote for a small leather crossbody. You can also unbutton the coat to reveal the knit’s neckline—maybe a scoop or a mock neck—to transition from street style to evening elegance. The key is to keep the core pieces neutral and let your accessories carry the festive spirit.
