Cherries have a strong identification with retro pin up style. Where did this correlation come from? With many trends, the answer is a mix of influences.

Cherries were a particularly popular image in America in the 1930s. Cherries decorated dresses, kitchens, jewelry, and more. "Representations of this exuberant, cheerful fruit might have

A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to shoot Miss Dinah DeRosa  in my home for Heartbreaker and Heartbreaker Haute.  I've recently had to take photography into my own hands for our company and I'm learning more and more as I go along.  It's a lot of fun, creative, and also a ton of work.

Pin up or pinup images got their name from the way that they were "pinned up" on the walls of barracks, bunkers, office walls, ships, and even planes during war time. These alluring photos and illustrations were created to help raise the, uh, "morale" of the many young men serving long, dangerous tours away from friends, family, and love.

Mid century America was crazy for all things tropical and Hawaiian. Many served in the South Pacific during World War II, and returned home with tales of palm trees and rum.

Even the often severe Prada featured more abstract and geometric florals. Subculture favorite Betsey Johnson had stylized cherries, and sharp, high-contrast florals in feminine shapes. Heartbreaker Fashion has always featured bold and unique prints, and our current collections are no exception - we have our own unique takes on these runway trends.

For many years, I had my "work clothes" and my "real clothes." My work clothes were your typical boring unflattering dress pants, ill-fitting collared shirts, and floppy cardigan sweaters that I had somehow decided were what office jobs required. I put much more thought and effort into my "real clothes" and felt more comfortable in the unique dresses and outfits I wore to fun events with my friends.
I have since largely integrated my work wardrobe and my "real clothes." I
