May 3rd is the d-day of the second anniversary of The Picnic Girl (happy birthday my dear alter-ego!)..I promise myself to do things better here. This May also notes the fresh new start for me, personally. Some good things just came marching along and I can't stop thank God for that. 

I don't usually share the detail of my personal life but this time, I can't help it, it's too exciting for me! So, I just sign a contract and will be moving to Bandung for several months at the end of this year to be a curator assistant in Selasar Sunaryo Art Space (read this and you'll understand why am I so excited!); my personal edition for Huff Magazine is due at the end of this month; my mom just got me a new travelling companion named Krilo (I hope I can present more and more picnic post,then); and the soft opening of my Lir shop is due on the third week of May (so excited for that!). 

Lir shop is my new place of dream comes true. Remember how devastated I was when I sold my Cups to a friend? This time, I won't give up so easily. I start a new business with all my interest and passion in it.. Lir consist of a bookstore; an anything-homemade resto (named Mooi); a public space for art, hobby, and literature; and Summer and Spring holiday boutique. I'll try my best to make the visitor of my shop feel as if she is in one-stop-shopping for a picnic ;) I'll share the detail later. 

For now, let's spend another sunny day with my dearest picnic pal, Thika of The Versicle; sharing future plans, stories, sunshine, another photoshoot (will be up next) and delicious smoothies. Let the pictures do the talk!

This green dress is one of my nice-weather-day dress.. the kind of dress I grab first thing in a breathtakingly glorious morning (like today) and sunny days. 

This dress is pretty special to me: my mom got the tie-dye cloth handmade by her designer friend, then, she pass it on to me; later, I design it myself (how do you like the detail on the upper side of the dress and its flare? its so wide and breezy, that's why it suits the sunshine nicely) and my boyfriend's sister sew it on for me (she's having a new boutique called Summer and Spring at my Lir shop~ I'll announce it later in June).
