This adventure is full of surprises

First, we want to apologize for this long break. We were not dead but these past weeks were full of emotions.

Mademoiselle A is not really sure what to do now that she is alone in the project. Mademoiselle L decided to leave the company, so there is one investor missing in order to continue the adventure.

This is a complicate situation, but be sure that Mademoiselle A will handle it properly.

There is no way that she stop all the work that has been done, so you will be update on what plan she will decide to go for.

Well, this project is like a soap opera, never miss one episode or you will never understand what is happening!  

For those who don’t know yet the concept Mademoiselle A is working on, please go to the link “lil’b : the concept”, and share your opinion!

Thank you guys for your support, that is really important for this project!

THEY FOUND A SOLUTION!

To make their dreams come true, the 2 frenchies decided to set up the best strategy in order to finalize their project...

Ups & downs of the visa marathon

"Sorry girls but this complete file is not enough for you to have your E2 investors visa".... OMG! The lawyer working with Mademoiselle L & A just spread fear among the girls head! "What should we do? How can we start our project? Are we going to throw up 4 months of hard work to re-start everything in France?

No visa = No "going" to NY = No possibility to achieve their dream?

Long sessions of brainstorming started! First things : "What is missing?" Mademoiselle L & A started to exchange many emails with their lawyer to truly understand what could be missing in a "complete visa file".... Because, in there language...complete means... COMPLETE! FULL! NOTHING MORE TO ADD!

Well apparently, the 2 frenchies were lacking of something more than their business plan, 5 years financial projection, rental contract, financial investment... They needed to prove that they were already on track making business! They had to take more risks because that it's what the Mrs of the Embassy would judge: their personal investment too. Humm... but how can you be making business while knowing that you are not sure to have the right visa allowing you to start working legally???? Tricky one...

The two girls started to scratch their heads and seriously think on how they could make things right! Only one thing came into their mind: "WE HAVE TO GO!" The two girls realized they had to take a business trip and start to "take actively part into their adventure!" (says the lawyer who probably haven't red this blog... )

There is apparently an temporary visa allowing to negociate, set up the store without working and earning money. Adventure means taking risks, right?

In more or less a month, the two girls will be in NY gathering all information needed to secure their investors visa they are not sure to get....Crazy isn't it? But not crazy enough to scare the 2 frenchies who want to start their project in NY...

From Paris to New York, a fabulous day with Basquiat

For our first 2011 post, we wanted to share a strong experience with all of you. As you know, Mademoiselle A and Mademoiselle L are in Paris together right now.

No need to tell you how much Mademoiselle A is enjoying the parisian city life that she missed while living in Florida. But there is a huge event that reminded her directly of her dream: The Basquiat retrospective at the MAM (the Museum of Modern Art in Paris).

Everybody heard about Basquiat : This young New York artist, who started as a graffiti artist, became a close friend of Andy Warhol and died at the age of 27 years old of an overdose.

What is absolutely amazing about his art is how bad it touches you.You can be an art virgin or an art expert, you will always get out as a different person.
This kind of experience changes your image of art forever.

Imagin that you mix together in a box : violence, death, power, basic instinct, satyrism, symbolism and spontaneity.
Shake it and you obtain what Basquiat's art is about!

At the same time, you feel that you can have a free vision and point of view about his art, like Basquiat would tell you: "don't be shy to feel and see whatever you want".

So now you are intrigued, right? Well, that was the point of that post!

Enjoy the following pics:

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL OF YOU!!!
