My conceit is that Mia either carries her gear in a saddlebag when she's not wearing it, or she's carrying some kind of bag that's larger on the inside because of magic. Â This is where she might keep her sword, shield, and other necessities. Â But I don't have her do any kind of quick change because it's too much of a handicap to drama.
If she's caught unaware, like in a bar or some other social occasion and doesn't have ready access to her equipment, she'll have to think on her feet, improvise, distract, or do anything she can to get away long enough to get her bag and get her gear on - or at the very least get a weapon.
I do like an anime/super sentai style transformation but that's just not a thing she's capable of, although I don't doubt that others could do it.
