Crocs Prima Redneck Tan

Surely you have seen a traditional redneck tan? Google "redneck tan" and you will find images of many an attractive and not-so-attractive person sporting sunburns and tans with various parts of their body unburned and untanned.

Yes, technically a "redneck" tan applies to the upper body and red necks too. Today,I am sharing a new concept : redneck tans of your feet!

I didn't set out to acquire this type of tan -- it just sort of happened. In Jacksonville, Florida, the sun can be quite brutal on most days. Some days, we are cautioned that the burn index is under ten minutes or less. That's hot!

Step 1 : Me in My Crocs Prima Ballet Flats

Me in My Crocs Prima Cotton Candy Ballet Flats

I love wearing my Crocs Prima ballet flats out in the yard. If I get them dirty, not to worry! I just carry them into the shower with me and use a little scrub brush on them. Oh, and another thing! I seriously love the cool little Jibbitz big flower charms that you can add to your Crocs.

Time out for a word from our sponsor: I found a listing for Crocs Women's Prima Ballet Flats on Amazon! And, you got to have your Jibbitz Flower Charms!

Step 2 : Redneck Tan - Right Foot

Step 3 : Redneck Tan - Left Foot

Can you see it? Look closely! On each foot you can see the four little tanned spots. The Jibbitz has covered up the middle spot so there is no tanned dot there. But, what is interesting is that the two interior holes in the Crocs Primas are rather obscured by the Jibbitz large flower charms. And, yet the sun has managed to get in and tan those areas too.

Step 4 : Redneck Tan - Both Feet
 

Thank You Crocs Prima Ballet Flats for My Redneck Tan

I guess I don't really mind that I have a different kind of tan on my two feet. If you look closely at the picture, you not only see spots but some scars too! Here's another view of my two feet:

Both Feet - Post-Surgery: 1-Morton's Neuroma; 2-Bunionectomies

Plus a Crocs Prima Redneck Tan

By the way, you might not know this, but my feet are famous! They have been appearing worldwide thanks to the internet. My feet have been used to promote Morton's Neuroma and bunionectomies -- not necessarily for my pages. We filed a few DMCA complaints; you know I had to put my foot down finally!

P.S. I've written a lot about Crocs footwear over the years:

• February 6, 2009, blog post, "Crocs may be anti-microbial and odor resistant but they can be cute too." In that post, you get to see a picture of all the Crocs footwear in my closet!
• February 19, 2009, blog post, "Another cute wedge shoe from Crocs is the Patricia."
• March 9, 2009, blog post, "I Love Shoes With Bows Especially Crocs Audrey."
• I previously penned a Squidoo lens on YOU by Crocs too!
• Oh, and I had a few pairs of YOU by Crocs footwear for sale in my eCrater store! They were donated to the Jacksonville, Florida Goodwill in November 2015.

Before you get your foot out the door, it's another time out for a word from our sponsor: I found a listing for Crocs Women's Prima Ballet Flats on Amazon! And, you got to have your Jibbitz Flower Charms!

Kitten in a Crocs Shoe
I will bet you haven't seen anything quite as cute as a kitten in a Crocs shoe! The shoes are my Crocs Malindi leopard print slingbacks. Those Crocs held up pretty good to these six little kittens. Now that all of the kitties and their white mommy cat have been adopted into new homes, I have my shoes back ... and just a lot of memories ... like you see in my Zazzle items!

Another cute wedge shoe from Crocs is the Patricia

Have you read my previous blog post about ALL the different Crocs shoes I have in my closet? It is true that I have a pair of Crocs in almost all the significant colors of the rainbow. I'm particularly in love with the You By Crocs line which has the flair of Italian designers.

Let me tell you that when you think of Crocs, you can be stylish too. You see, Crocs has come out with a stylish wedge sandal by the name of Patricia -- I'm wondering WHO this shoe was named after, don't you wonder that too?

What caught my eye about this wedge is the strappy and feminine styling -- I do love strappy! The wedge is a flattering 2-inches -- just the right height to make these oh so comfy for casually walking about and for strolling the beach. And, no need to worry about jumping into the surf and getting these babies wet! The patented croslite™ material provides a stimulating effect to the bottom of your feet. These were available from shop.crocs.com for $39.99!

Crocs' Patricia is available in Berry/Pearl, Black/Black, Brown/Walnut, and Navy/Lavender. Hey, George ... when will these be available in a leopard print? ;)

P.S. This blog post was penned on February 19, 2009. It is now OVER 10 years later and I am still wearing a pair of Crocs daily! I have a hot pink pair of ballet flats that I wear out in my garden. I love how you can wash them with a scrub brush and they look nearly new!

Crocs may be anti-microbial and odor resistant but they can be cute too

Crocs may be anti-microbial and odor resistant but they can be cute too! I should know as I've owned a lot of Crocs shoes throughout the years.

Yesterday evening, I was 'chatting' via Twitter with @georgegsmithjr, Social Media Specialist @Crocs, Inc. He had retweeted my update about the Crocs Valentines promotion -- http://www.crocs.com/valentine and love hearts jibbitz. I had mentioned to George that I wanted to see more animal print especially in the Prima style. He let me know about the Malindi, but I had already secured a pair of those at our local Dillards department store; however, I had to go up a size since I checked out 2 different Dillards and couldn't find my size. Now, I see that the Malindi style is available online through Crocs IN MY SIZE! Shucks -- that's what happens when you are an early adopter. ;)

In a follow-up tweet to @georgegsmithjr, I mentioned that I wouldn't mind being a spokesperson for the brand -- so I wanted to let him know that I really LOVED the Crocs brand.

If there is any doubt that I love Crocs footwear, all you have to do is look at the picture of all the Crocs designer footwear that you'll currently find in my closet. I love the jibbitz charms too -- particularly the flowers with rhinestones and the Jacksonville Jaguars charms. In the back row, you'll spot the YOU by Crocs which I fell in love with the moment I spotted them when they debuted. YOU by Crocs include left to right, Crocs With a Twist ankle booties, Neat, Top Shelf in black patent, and Straight Up.

In the middle row, left to right, Malindi in gold leopard and Prima in peacock, fuchsia, and grape. In the front row, left to right, are Prima in brown, Scutes in turquoise and white, and Prima in cotton candy.

Can you tell that I love this brand? I Love YOU by Crocs! By the way, take a look at those 4 YOU by Crocs selections on the top row ... They still look like that! Size 9 and available. Since I had two bunionectomies and a Morton's Neuroma surgery, I really can't wear shoes with any elevation. Want to buy one of these ... leave me a comment with your contact information. These are some very stylish and in demand Crocs for sale by JaguarJulie.

UPDATE: I no longer have any Crocs for sale. I've got a few pairs that I still have with a pair of ballet flats that I wear daily in my gardens. I love how you can scrub them clean for another day of wear. Oh, some of these cuties I donated to the Goodwill in Mount Dora, Florida. So, I think some day I will run across a person in my shoes. lol
