The Modern Pin-up

Pin up girls at the roller derby,Take me down to Newark, New Jersey.

American flags; blue, blue streamers.

Everybody's laughing, the crowd is cheering.

Baby, I've become someone,

Baby, I've become,

Baby, I've become someone,

Not of this world.

Hey, yeah, yeah.

Not of this world.

Hey, yeah, yeah.

Dance at night back in Alabama.

Christmas lights on my teal green trailer.

American flags; blue, blue streamers,

All the men are watching, the crowd is screaming.

Prizes, prizes, a diamond tiara.
Here’s to the girl with the blue mascara.
I have a disco ball mind,
Lights flashing all of the time.
I have a disco ball mind,
I want to die, I want to die.
I want to die, I want to die.
Ooh, uh, ooh.


Baby, I've become someone,
Baby, I've become,
Baby, I've become someone,
Not of this world.
Hey, yeah, yeah.
Not of this world.
Ooh-ooh, mm.

 Trends come and go and for now there is an obsession with Pin-up/ retro style in Japanese fashion, Gyaru and non Gyaru alike. I rather liked Happienuts' take on this trend for April 2014 so I decided to give it a shot and feature this lovely black David Jones bag from Cardam's.   

Cardam’s is no newbie in the fashion shoe industry. Being famed as the classic schools shoes and durable sandals of Filipinos, Cardam’s enjoys its position as one of the preferred partner in the Filipino heart and “sole” for years.

After its acquisition from its previous owner, Cardam’s grew from 3 branches into 5 branches with several concession stores nationwide. As more Filipinos become more sophisticated in their taste, Cardam’s evolved from being a conservative brand to an edgier and fashion forward shoe brand.

True to its heritage, Cardam’s keeps its timeless and dependable styles for its loyal clients while adding up new collections that will cater to the prevalent fashion taste of young Filipino professionals. With this reason as well that has brought Cardam’s to add a men’s line with Richard Poon as its brand ambassador to represent the formal yet quirky modern men.

As it continues to grow as a lifestyle brand, Cardam’s recently welcomed its bag collections under the Australian brand—David Jones. David Jones is a famous brand in Australia with their main headquarters based Paris. 

Don't forget to follow Cardam's on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram
