What’s better than spending the day shopping with one of your best friends? How about shopping in a gorgeous boutique at the beach where all of your favorite items are on sale, AND they’re offering free cake? Well, that was my reality a few weeks ago when the lovely Mash Elle and I hosted the Rosie True x Bella Dahl event at the Rosie True Boutique in Jacksonville Beach, Florida! It was an absolutely perfect day filled with new friends, beautiful music, fun fashion, and lots and lots of shopping!

Michelle and I were already fans of Rosie True‘s online store, but our jaws hit the floor when we stepped inside their Jacksonville Beach boutique! Each and every corner of the store is filled with adorable merchandise, and their isn’t a single inch of the store that isn’t perfectly decorated. Rosie True is basically the boho beach girl’s dream closet. At the shopping party, the shelves were overflowing with cute and comfortable summer clothing and accessories – including the new Bella Dahl releases. If you’re not familiar with Bella Dahl, you need to check them out immediately. They’re known for comfortable basics with an LA vibe, and their clothing is specially treated to be perfectly worn-in and super soft. I wish that I could express to you just how comfortable their clothing is. Their fabric is basically a mix of your favorite pair of worn-in jeans and the softest sheets in the world. I imagine that they must treat their fabric with unicorn tears or something magical, because the softness is out-of-this-world. I was lucky enough to wear one of Bella Dahl’s denim dresses (nearly identical dress is currently 50% off!) to the shopping party, and I already have a few of their items on my summer shopping list! Full outfit post to come! If you need to update your closet for summer, check out Rosie True’s selection of Bella Dahl pieces!

Now that I’ve gushed about my love for Bella Dahl, let’s get back to Rosie True’s gorgeous store.

I’ll be straight with you. If you walk into Rosie True, you’re going to want to buy everything in the store. While Michelle and I had a blast talking with the customers and partying away with the Rosie True staff (they’re all TOTAL sweethearts, by the way!), we had to resist spending the entire shopping party trying on clothes for ourselves! Whether you’re in the market for beachy clothes, boho accessories, one-of-a-kind gifts, or sweet home decor, Rosie True has something for you!

In love with @kendallbrower’s music at the @loverosietrue + @belladahl event! Subscribe to her on Instagram & YouTube! She’s amazing! A video posted by Ashley Nicholas (@ashleybrookenicholas) on May 2, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

When we weren’t shopping with the party attendees or stuffing our faces with Nothing Bundt Cake Bundtinis (HEAVEN.), Michelle and I listened to the vocal stylings of the talented Kendall Brower. She knocked her acoustic set out of the park! You can listen to a small clip of her performance above when you click play, but be sure to follow her on Instagram and YouTube for full-length tracks!

The Rosie True x Bella Dahl event was one of my favorite events of the entire year, and it was a privilege to co-host the event with Michelle! We’re already planning another Ponte Vedra beach trip, so I can guarantee you that there is a Rosie True shopping spree in our future!
