Summer Pool Party with Crocs

Let me just start off by saying, for the millionth time, that I am impressed every time a new pair of Crocs shoes arrive at my doorstep. Not only are they well made, ridiculously light-weight, comfortable, AND affordable, they are stylish as well. My husband literally has not taken them off since he slipped on his first pair of Hover sneakers. I think, or at least I hope, that I’ve shown you enough styles that you’ll agree with me, though I’m still surprised myself!

So as you may know, I’ve partnered up with Crocs for a good portion of the year to share with all of you, just how many cute Crocs shoe styles they offer. But that wasn’t enough! Crocs wanted to share the goods in person with my friends and family and offered 20 pairs of shoes to my nearest and dearest!

We decided a fun backyard pool party would be the perfect little shindig to share the wealth and invited our friends and all of their kiddos over for the event. The kids crocs are hands-down, the cutest of all the styles, and they have so many! And I think all the kids would agree because regardless of their age, each and every one of them were ridiculously excited to rip off the shoes they came in and swap them out for their new crocs!

Case in point…

But first, a little decor and food…

I got too busy to really take any more decor photos… that’s the unfortunate thing about hosting a party, you don’t get to enjoy it as much as you’d like to! See my full outfit details here

My cousin Kelley and her daughter Avery made this festive crocodile cake and fun cupcakes!

My husband’s Baya slides & a few crocodile rafts to complete the theme!

Cutie sisters Brookelyn & Makayla got matching polka dot slip on sneakers

Delilah was loving her new Keeley mary janes

The kids even wore their shoes in the water!

They have tons of fun little flair called Jibbitz to adorn each croc hole.

I scrapped the fun hula hoop chandelier idea & just went with pretty white lights.

The kids and grown up kids had a little dance party after dark.

Much fun was had… much mess was made, but everyone left happy in their new shoes. You can see more party photos here.

Not gonna lie, I was pretty proud of my chalk rendering of the Croc logo on our chalkboard dots.
