Many of their women’s flats are just $29! Get a pair for class and another for exploring the weekends – we’ve got ballet flats, ruffled flats, studded flats, plaid flats, cute flats, black flats… and the list goes on with styles to suit your every fancy.

One of my favorites is the Blowfish Sunshine. First off, the name gets me! It’s so cute. This pair of black flats has classic styling and is set in a faux-patent upper. A twist detail across the front adds visual interest to this Blowfish shoe, one that will have others taking a second one.

My other favorite is the cozy looking Seggie from Blowfish Shoes. Perfect for walking through campus or staying comfortable at work, the Blowfish Seggie is an adorable fall flat!

We were all sitting around the other day talking about some of the new styles we just added over on Planet Shoes from Blowfish. We were also talking about all the fantastic bargains out there right now – just waiting to be had! You must be getting all the emails from Old Navy, Gap, Amazon and more? We sure are, and so we went out looking for some fun pieces to go with the Blowfish Hanuku bootie. Sometime comfy and casual for summer, with a few fun accessories thrown in the mix!

Comfy and Casual by blairstephens featuring Old Navy

As you can see, one of our visions with this booty is a flirty but comfy drop waist halter dress from Old Navy. Paired with a cute and casual denim jacket, you’ll be comfortable all day, no matter the temperature. We love the cute skirt or dress paired with the slouchy short Blowfish bootie. Comfortable and a little different, this look transitions from spring, through summer and even into the early fall.

The Blowfish Hanuku denim is a super cute bootie at a great value. These are the Blowfish interpretation of a popular trend in Japanese street fashion. The tough texture of the denim makes them look a little rough and tumble while the buckle detail speaks to the popular harness boots we’re all seeing all over the place! Still, the bootie cut keeps them feminine and fun. Easy on and off with a side zipper and lined in the typical fun Blowfish purple, you’ll love these one sight. The super flexible outsole and simple silhouette ensure that they’re still versatile enough for all of your summer outfits.

Great with a little dress, your favorite skinny jeans or your favorite flirty skirt, these Blowfish booties can’t be beat for summer.

We also couldn’t resist adding in one of our favorite Jane Marvel bags! The Jane Marvel Satchel is seriously a must have for all seasons. Lightweight, water resistant and super easy to clean, this bag can go with you on all your adventures!

It has tons of pockets and zipper storage in the interior and it even comes with it’s own coordinating hand held mirror and a clear pouch for all your makeup essentials. Best yet, Jane Marvel bags are vegan friendly. The fun patterns and colors offer tons of flexibility in your wardrobe and we just knew it would be perfect with this outfit.

Strut your stuff and take some inspiration from our style mash up from Polyvore!

We love Blowfish for their fun styles and fashionable outlook. We are always comparing shoes here in the office, and fashion aesthetics, since we’re a diverse bunch. We figured it might be fun to start giving our own little style mash ups here on the site. Let us know what you think, or what YOU would wear with any of these choices.

Blowfish Festival by blairstephens featuring GAP dresses

Our first shoe style pick is the Blowfish Festival. This is a great, versatile and super cute wedge, peep toe shoe for spring.  I, personally, love the denim for it’s versatility and texture.

A wedge is a great choice this summer – it’s not only on trend, but is also comfortable, and it gives you a sexy lift while offering great stability. I love a denim shoe with a pretty print dress.

Although I love my classic brown and black leather sandals, every once in a while you want a little change that can still be a great neutral.

So I hopped on over to the Gap, home of many a great classic, pretty summer dress and found this little gem.  This is a cotton, rayon blend with a pretty red floral print that they call the Floral Empire Tank Dress.

The smocked back works on any upper body and the higher waist is super flattering. They have the same cut in several solid colors, if that’s your thing, but sometimes it’s fun to just indulge your pretty.

This is just the kind of dress I’d wear with my cute denim wedges.

Then, of course, you need a great bag. Have you checked out Mimo? Beautifully crafted, elegant and versatile, they are all fabulous bags. For this look, I opted for the Mimo Handbag Cami, which is a nice neutral and light enough to look great with any number of things this summer!

Do you like modern architecture? Buildings that have a little edge, a unique look that isn’t in the least bit cookie-cutter? I do, I like a building with a little funk and a little rebel about it – and I get that same feeling when I look at Blowfish shoes. The designers let their imaginations fly and don’t limit their vision to the expected materials, silhouettes or colors.

Take the downtown Seattle Public Library. Funk-y. It looks like a cube that has bits shifted this way and that, odd angles and lots and lots of glass to let in the light. The inside features super bright colors and a ramp that spirals up and up and it looks like no library you ever seen before.

With Blowfish you see the same innovation. Instead of strict lines and perfect edges they create ripples and waves, twists and turns. Bright colors are paired with geometric designs and patterns like plaid which brings energy to these shoes.

Easily paired with jeans they can go from campus to a night out with friends and give you a style all your own along the way. They look finished but not formal, a truly individual design sensibility that you don’t find anywhere else.

Have you seen the Stata building? It is part of MIT’s campus and it combines slouching towers, windows that stick out at odd angles, and combines different materials like textured brick and smooth metal to make this beautiful, chaotic building.

Blowfish harnesses that same youthful, madcap exuberance capitalizing on their position as a young brand they aren’t stuck with the same old same old.

One of their most widely known designs, the Hobbit boots, uses unevenly spaced buttons to create a slouchy look that takes the boring out of their boots and slides them straight into funky.

Blowfish ballet flats are created anew with swirls of twisted material that accent the fluid lines of the shoe while tye-dye fabric literally allows each shoe to be unique. Embellishments such as fringe, embroidery and even a little bling on their summer sandals keep each pair of Blowfish shoes looking fresh.

As a young brand Blowfish has captured the newest trends- and even better, created trend setting patterns and looks that have inspired their loyal customers. Never relying on what has been, the Blowfish designers are always ahead of the curve bringing what will be the hottest new look to the market.

One of the great looks this season is the innovative above the knee boot. Perfect with the skinny jean or stovepipe pant, these tall boots are all about fashion and comfort with a high profile and a low heel. You’ve seen the look on celebrities like Rihanna and on the Gossip Girl fashionistas so check out these great options and grab this hot look for the winter months.

Blowfish:

Blowfish has been offering great boot looks for a few years now and they have taken one of their most popular boots, the Hobbit, and adapted it to the new, above the knee trend. The Blowfish Hi Guy offers the signature comfortable and detailed look of the brand, with button detailing all the way up and adorable bright purple lining.

You can use the zipper closure or the buttons for maximum ease in sliding them on and off. This multiple closure system makes the boots easier to adapt to multiple pairs of jeans as well since we all know that if your skinny jeans aren’t skinny enough, pulling on a knee high boot can be a big hassle! The rubber, flexible sole make these over the knee boots great for walking while the look will make them great for a night out on the town. Durable, adorable and comfortable – this is the easiest over the knee boot we’ve found to slide into!

Chinese Laundry

If you like a more classic and elegant look – something a little more sleek than slouchy, check out the Chinese Laundry Turbo. These high boots come in brown and black leather as well as three shades of suede, including grey, which makes them perfect for skinny jeans, cords or slim black pants. The angular upper means they sit over the knee without adding a lot of extra uncomfortable material behind the knee.

No zipper or buttons necessary here – the Turbo’s slide right on – just pull them on up and the added elasticity at the top will keep them where they’re meant to be. With a simple one inch wedge heel you’ll get comfortable elevation and maximum support. These over the knee boots were really made for walking – and looking fierce in one of today’s more daring trends. This boot is a great melding of classic style and today’s trends so if you’re ready to take a walk on the stylish side – check out the Chinese Laundry Turbo!

As always – we’re adding brands and style every day so check out our ladies boots and find your perfect style for fall and winter!
