Veronica — Tue, 05 Mar 2013 15:52:58 +0000

This year is the year that many of my closest friends are turning 30. (Me included!) You know what that means: Tons of parties and cake! My dear friend Tara was throwing a Big 3-0 celebration in Cincinnati and asked me to create a custom illustration for her event. Of course I said yes! Tara [...]

Michelle Obama in Jason Wu – 2013 Inauguration

Veronica — Tue, 22 Jan 2013 17:10:06 +0000

I was up allllll day yesterday watching coverage of President Obama’s second inauguration. I attended the first one in 2009, and even though the temperatures were below freezing in DC, that day, it’s easily one of the most exciting experiences I’ve had in my life. This time around, I opted to stay home in Philadelphia, [...]

Who else is a huge fan of “Scandal”? RAISE YOUR HANDS HIGH! I know I’m not the only one who is SUPER excited about the show’s return tonight. When we last left Olivia Pope and Associates, the president was in the hospital, Huck was on the run, Harrison was taking charge, and Abby was… well, [...]

First Kid Cool: Malia Obama

Veronica — Tue, 08 Jan 2013 05:00:31 +0000

When I saw this photograph of Malia Obama yesterday, I was blown away. Like, just gobsmacked. The girl is gorgeous, and poised to boot. I started asking questions that you might hear from an older relative at the family reunion — “How old she now?! When did she get so tall?! She looks just like [...]

Quick Sketch: Today We Dance

Veronica — Mon, 07 Jan 2013 07:20:37 +0000

Tonight I’ll be returning to dance class for the first time in over a year. A little backstory: Before I moved to Philadelphia for grad school, I was with a company, Contradiction Dance, in D.C., and I taught children’s classes in Northern Virginia. With that schedule, I was in a dance studio at least three [...]

Sketchified: Dior Resort

Veronica — Sun, 06 Jan 2013 06:03:47 +0000

Confession: I love full, flared and pleated skirts. They flip, they swing, they flare when you twirl (and I love to twirl) and they just give me so much joy. Also, they’re tons of fun to draw. So when I saw this cute, swingy mini-skirt from Dior’s latest resort collection, doing a quick fashion illustration [...]

Sketchified: Wax Print Fly

Veronica — Sun, 06 Jan 2013 05:04:15 +0000

I’m in love with West African wax prints. And when I found this photograph of a chocolate model in a super-cute outfit, I knew I had to sketch her. A slight modification of the pose to create a little more sass, and it was the perfect fashion illustration. Wax prints are a bit time-consuming to [...]

Fashion School Diaries: Aboriginal Inspired Swimwear

Veronica — Thu, 01 Nov 2012 04:23:32 +0000

I had an ridiculously fun time doing my swimwear project. Maybe because I chose a great inspiration for a theme: aboriginal art. The earthy colors, the wildlife motifs, the kinda-sorta-pointilist mark-marking — love it ALL. It got even better when I found a swimwear fabric that mimicked the energy and feel of aboriginal works of [...]

Veronica Marche for FASHION VICTIM

Veronica — Sat, 20 Oct 2012 14:28:47 +0000

Eeee! It’s here! I’m collaborating with my good friends at Contradiction Dance for their fall concert, “FASHION VICTIM.” It feels like being home again (even though we’re a couple hundred miles apart). A little backstory: I met Kelly Mayfield (now Kelly King!) about five years ago when I was a dancer in Washington, D.C. I [...]
