Spring sandals for the win.
Springtime is here! …and, if you couldn’t tell, we’re very excited about it. There’s nothing we love more than warm weather, especially when that means we can dust off our spring wardrobe and stock up on some fresh sandals for the season.
We sent out some of our favorite spring sandals to some lovely ladies to shoot, and we are (very much) obsessed with how they styled them for spring. We love all of the casual, California-cool looks styled with our Blowfish Malibu shapes, prints, metallics and all-time strappy faves. But we’re warning you… you may very well want every single pair on this list after reading!

All eyes on the Rioo shoe.
Summer is just around the corner! And with that in mind, Blowfish Malibu Kids is excited to introduce you and your little one to the Rioo shoe. Available for Toddlers and Kids, this sweet sneaker is made of a lightweight EVA material. Its feather-weight and flexibility will allow your little one to adventure through the season with ease. And the best part of Rioo? These shoes are hand-washable, meaning there’s absolutely nothing she can’t do in these summer shoes. Plus, it makes keeping these kicks clean a breeze.

Go behind the scenes of our spring and summer photoshoot in sunny Palm Springs!
Another season, another photoshoot! The Blowfish Malibu team headed out to the legendary Saguaro Hotel in Palm Springs, California, for a colorful shoot for our Spring/Summer 2021 collection. The hotel is full of vibrant pops of color, flashy hues and ultra saturated tones. Our new spring and summer 2021 collection follows suit. It is super bright and colorful, and filled with tie dye and hot hues. So, obviously the Saguaro made perfect sense! (Want to see some of the new product? Keep scrolling for a little peek!)
Our team spent two days there shooting for both Womens and Kids back in November, 2020. So, that gave us a ton of time to prep and get assets ready for the upcoming season.

Take a look at the sneakers that we’re dying over this spring.
Springtime calls for sneakers. When you’re ready to break out of boots and booties, but can’t quite commit to sandals (or maybe the sun hasn’t got his hat on yet) – sneakers are the go-to.
This spring things have been quite different, and maybe not as adventurous as we intended, but we wanted to share our top picks for the season – plus we’ve loved seeing how our community styles our faves.
Tie-Dye is everywhere this season, and we aren’t the exception. Style Play comes in multiple colors, but we’re in love with the pop of color from the tie-dye this spring!

Marley is a fan fave. This sweet grey color is so versatile and perfect for spring. Pair with denim and a simple tee for an effortless California look.

There’s a Blumoon rising.
With sandal season just around the corner, I’m excited to introduce you to our newest style for spring. Blumoon is not only the hottest Blowfish Malibu style for warm weather, it’s also an office fave. The unique silhouette features a micro-wedge heel, inside zipper, and accent ankle straps. And of course this shoe features Blowfish Malibu’s signature slightly cushioned footbed. With its on-trend style and unique comfort qualities, you will be rocking Blumoon for the entire season!
This laidback sandal is perfect for all your spring adventures. From aimlessly touring European streets to a date night to stroll on the Santa Monica Pier, the cushioned footbed will keep you comfy and looking cute. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve packed new shoes for vacation only to be disappointed by blisters and sore feet. But not with Blumoon! These cuties have your back. They are so famously comfortable that you won’t even realize you are wearing sandals.
Blumoon comes in a few color options so grab the color of your choice and pair it with your favorite spring outfit. I love wearing mine with ripped boyfriend jeans and a vintage knit top. For ultimate California vibes, wear them with a sundress and denim jacket or high-wasted shorts and a tank.
We’d love to see how you style the new Blumoon sandal! Don’t forget to tag us @blowfishmalibu for a chance to be featured.

It’s that time of year again: photo shoot season!
Our marketing team spent the beginning of November hard at work prepping to shoot our upcoming styles for Spring/Summer 2019.
One of the days on set, we spent at a beach house on Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu, California. We got there just as the day was breaking, and was fortunate enough to see the most beautiful sunrise. We all enjoyed bagels and coffee for breakfast and then got straight to work turning the house into our photo studio for the day!
This shoot was particularly fun, as we got to host a plethora of little ladies on set! Working with kids can be challenging, but these girls were a dream and we all had blast entertaining them in between shots. How cute are they!? (And, I mean, just look at all the adorable mini Blowfish Malibu shoes!)
The details in the house that we shot at were impeccable. Details, like the surfing book pictured below, can really add a lot of specialness to a shot. (The book definitely made it into to images!) And how great is that wooden walkway in the sand (pictured below)? All these little details really help to add to the bigger picture.
We were lucky to work with a super talented photographer again. We’ve been working with Andrew and the team from Matrimony Media for a while now, so whenever we have a shoot, it’s like hanging out with old friends who we don’t get to see very often. There’s lots of goofing around in between outfit changes, but when we need to get to work, we get it done.
Overall, shooting in Malibu is always a great time – as it’s our home! All of us love being on the beach and find any excuse we possibly can to escape to our little paradise along the Pacific Ocean.

One of our all-time fave sneakers, Play, made Buzzfeed’s Best Fashion Sneakers on Amazon list! So, we’re kinda freaking out.
Summer is all about sandals, cute polish, and allowing your cute lil footsies some fresh air on those hot days. But there are some days when simply only a sneaker will do. Whether your pedicure got smudged (I hate that during summer months!) or you just want to run around in something ultra comfortable all day, sneakers are the ultimate go-to.
Giant media house, Buzzfeed, recently released an article titled, “23 Of The Best Fashion Sneakers You Can Get On Amazon” and Blowfish Malibu is included! Siting that the shoes on the list need to be ,”comfortable, but make it fashion,” we’re stoked to see the sneaker, Play, on the list. The article includes customer reviews, including one review of the style Play from Jessica Hall: “These shoes are awesome! They fit great, are true to size, and are probably one of the most comfortable shoes I own. Buy them — they’re so cute!” Thank you so much, Jessica! All of us at Blowfish Malibu are so happy the sneakers worked out for you!
While we’ll always be sandal fanatics, the style Play is perfect for every day wear. (Did I mention it comes in kids too?) It features no laces, but elastic is sewn in for easy on and off. Super comfy and super cute, Play is a Blowfish Malibu staple and bestseller so far this year. They come in a bunch of colors each season, so there is definitely a color to suit every personality.
Stars and Stripes if you’re feeling patriotic!
