Vintage print scarves from Lylia Rose - My Mills BabyMy Mills Baby

There’s nothing quite like layering up, taking a walk in the fresh air and watching the kids race along leaf-ridden paths. This is what makes Autumn such a special time of the year. It’s also the time we rotate our wardrobes and stash away summer dresses, bringing out jumpers, skinny jeans and riding boots. Bland outfits are given the scarf treatment and further accessorised by felt hats and leather gloves.

For bright chiffon scarves I’ve recently discovered Lylia Rose. Here you’ll find a staggering amount of choice in pretty vintage designs, with flowers, birds and butterflies galore. It’s not often you stumble across someone’s shop and literally love everything - but this is definitely the case here.

Gemma Scarf

Everything you’ll see on Lylia Rose has been handpicked by mumpreneur Victoria, a Gloucester-based mum of 2. She set up the shop whilst on maternity leave with her first child and it’s gone from strength to strength having recently been awarded a Theo Paphitis small business award . A passionate vegetarian and small business advocate, she also keeps a scrapbook alongside her shop about family life, recipes and etsy finds.

The shop is full to the brim with affordable fashion accessories. I have the feeling Victoria and I have very similar styles, as there’s so much I like. I had a tough time picking something to review so asked her to send me a surprise from a list of my top picks. She chose this gorgeous turquoise scarf with bluebirds and blossom trees. It’s absolutely beautiful, long enough to be styled in a variety of ways and made from strong yet lightweight cotton. At just £9.99 it’s a real bargain.

There’s also a whole host of pretty accessories and an ever-growing jewellery and small bag collection. Still in keeping with mock-vintage theme, there’s lots of turquoise and brass, flowers and butterflies. The purses and make-up bags are also in distinctly girly prints.

Having had a good snoop around, there’s dozens of pretty bits to suit every taste and all are perfectly affordable with everything I’ve featured above all under £15. All orders also come with free first class delivery within the UK too. My scarf arrived wrapped in pretty tissue paper (not photographed as the kids got to it!) making it a perfectly pretty gift for someone special.

What’s more, every sale on the site helps raise money for Wallace & Gromit’s Grand Appeal which fundraises exclusively for the Bristol Children’s Hospital and Special Care Baby Unit. A boutique with a conscience.
