We won’t let “shelter in place” keep us from rockin’ our Easter style.
With Easter falling right smack dab in the middle of the “stay at home” order in Southern California, it’s going to be tough to get into the spirit of the holiday. Especially since we’ve been loving living in our comfy leggings. But that said, we’re going to try to get ourselves together, if anything, to maintain some sort of semblance of normalcy during this time. Easter is a holiday we look forward to each year so we’re pulling out all the stops when it comes to our Easter style.
Scroll through for some serious inspiration for getting dressed this Easter Sunday.
The HELM wedge, pictured above, has quickly become a fan favorite after being introduced last season. Pair this lightweight wedge with an easy-breezy spring dress for a look that’s just as comfortable as your favorite pair of Lulus.
We need to take a second to talk about our obsession with the LEEDS platform sandal. Introduced last season, this flatform wedge is at the top of our list, even selling out across the US last year. However, this year, we made sure to have plenty available. Our favorite is leopard print (so cute!) so grab this epic sandal while you still can!
Embrace the feeling of Easter by pairing Leeds with your favorite springtime dress – and then change back into leggings after dinner.
We are suckers for a heeled mule (when we’re actually in the office, it’s pretty much all we wear). So the LEOH mule is a great option to slip on for effortless Easter style. Throw on some vintage Levi’s (though we know denim is everyone’s least favorite things these days), and a tee and enjoy the afternoon with your family.
If you ask anyone who works on the marketing team what their favorite shoe is for SS2020, it’s LEIGH. Can you blame us? The mule silhouette? The espadrille detailing? I’d personally wear these every chance I get, so I’ll slip them on Easter Sunday with a pair of vintage Levi shorts and a cute top, and enjoy the holiday in my backyard with my family.
The HIROSHA wedge is back, and better than ever! A pop of leopard and contrasting faux-leather ankle straps make this lightweight wedge a serious winner for the season. Plus it will make you feel a little more jazzed up when you’re at home this Easter Sunday.
The LEELEE wedge is a great choice for someone who wants a little height, but can’t typically wear shoes that are too high. Featuring a velcro closure at the ankle, these lightweight wedges are a total breeze to wear, whether you’re running around outside or enjoying a nice dinner indoors with your family.
Talk about our perfect at-home Easter outfit! Slip into your favorite linen jumpsuit for maximum comfort, and strap on the forever wonderful GOYA vegan sandal. We promise you’ll feel as though you’re basking in the sunshine all day.
Ultimately, even though the current circumstances are challenging, the situation is what you make of it! Spend some quality time with your family/quarantine-mates, and try to find joy throughout the day. We’re all in this together, and we’ll get through this together.
Happy Easter, from the Blowfish Malibu family to yours!

Just because we’re stuck indoors, doesn’t mean you can’t get cute! So we’ve rounded up some top kids styles to inspire spring dressing for your little Blowfish Malibu kiddo.
Getting the kids out of their pajamas and into regular clothes can be a struggle these days. (Ok, maybe it’s hard for me to get out of PJs too!) But I also know how good I feel after I’ve showered, freshened up a bit, and put on a cute outfit. So, if that makes me feel good, I know it can do the same for the littles. Blowfish Malibu Kids have launched new, adorable, fun, fresh spring styles so we’re showing them off by pairing them with some super cute styling.
I love how simple yet adorable this outfit is. This look is serving California-inspired flavor featuring our signature faux cork footbed and faux leather upper with velcro closure. Style Goya-K can be found online at Zappos.com
I mean…! How cute is she?! We know the weather across the country isn’t as warm as SoCal, so we are loving this look by @livin.mivida.ale. A colorful sweater and some cute detailed jeans, paired with our Marley-K in the new floral print, is major fashion inspiration! Shop Marley-K here!
We love a sweet mommy & me matching outfit! But these floral style Play shoes paired with this adorable coral colored graphic tee is just too much cuteness. You can find these shoes that @whitneypeavy styled here!
We can’t forget about our favorite style this season, Play-K & Play-T in Rainbow Tie Dye! And we love matching sister outfits – I mean, who doesn’t?! Shop Play-K in Rainbow Tie Dye here.

A roundup of Blowfish Malibu’s back to school bestsellers.
Is it really already that time of year again? The little ones are soon headed back to school (sorry kiddos), which means back to school shopping is well underway. With Blowfish Malibu’s classic prints and cute silhouettes, you better believe she is going to be the best-dressed kid in her new classroom. So we’ve rounded up some of our favorite styles to keep her feet looking fresh as she heads into a new school year.
This adorable sneaker is as comfortable as it is cute. Plus, it’s beyond easy for her to slip on and off as she gets ready for school, or as she’s headed back home to get going on her homework.

There’s a reason why the Play sneaker is one of our all-time favorites. Because the Play style is both classic, cute, and comfortable, we’re convinced it goes with everything. Also, for a little girl who keeps growing (and needs a sneaker that matches everything in her closet) the Play-K sneaker is the perfect choice.
@brynnnora
Summer may be winding down, but that doesn’t mean your little lady wants to put her sandals away just yet! The Granola-K sandal is a great and comfortable choice. And she can match her shoes with mom!

Hallelujah, summer is here!
It’s officially our favorite season of the year! Sweet, sunny summer. To celebrate the launch of summer 2019, we invited a bunch of our favorite gals to Malibu Café, a gem hidden away in the hills of Malibu, California. This cute, rustic country mart is the place for yummy local eats and refreshing, cool drinks.
Our uber-fashionable guests enjoyed games, tasty food, delicious drinks. It was awesome to see the gals socialize with each other as well as representatives from the brand. So many smiles, laughs, and great conversation! A huge highlight for guests was being able to check out the upcoming product from our Blowfish Malibu Europe line. Trust us, there are some cuties in there! But one of our favorite moments of the evening was being able to teach our European friends how to make a proper American s’more! It’s quite incredible to see the face of someone eating a s’more for the first time. Let’s just say we may have started an obsession.
How are you celebrating the start to summer?

We’re excited to announce that Blowfish Malibu has officially gone vegan!
Over the last few years, fashion companies have been making a shift to move from leather to vegan leather. With more focus and attention on sustainability and decreasing one’s carbon footprint, taking this new route has proved very popular among fashion lovers, companies, and activists alike. That’s why we are so proud to announce that some of our newest styles have been registered and 100% approved by The Vegan Society. (Woop woop!)
The Vegan Society was established in 1944 in the UK and is the oldest registered vegan charity in the world. They define their purpose as, “a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude — as far as is possible and practicable— all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of humans, animals and the environment.” We are happy to be a part of such a wonderful organization!
We thought spring and summer would be the perfect time to unveil our new vegan designs. Our sandals feature some of the hottest silhouettes for warm weather and they are ultra comfortable, as always. If you are looking for faux leather styles, keep an eye out for the “Certified Vegan” sticker.
