So what is happening?

This week has been quite lovely, hanging out with friends and kids birthday party (yes it was a European style in Calgary, we do drink in front of children casualy and so don't judge!), our fence got finished and roses with hydrangeas are smiling at me happily... We play, shop for door handles and mail box! And we watch Ipad during an afternoon snack on our porch... life can't be better as we are enjoying each other every day...

B-day party for my son's friend, they are 4!!


Our house before:






And house after: 


Our fence & gate, love it! Do you see the roses and hydrangeas on the right?

If you misssed my previous post about the design of the gate and garden, click here: design privacy


Close up...



It came together well I think.





We play!


Shop for door handles...



New mail box, of course, the bigger the better..never have to redirect mail when we travel ...again!


We play at breakfast...


We eat a peach with Greek yoghurt in the afternoon on our porch....

And I shop for houses on internet in the meantime....
This one is in Norfolk, England...such a lovely Georgian manor...




Love their simple bedroom elegance....

And could use this roofed glass house pool in our back yard too...Next reno?? ...smiles...



Hope you are having an exciting and relaxing week as well.

RUNWAY TO WORKWAY dressing:

The garden and flowers inspired me and my style choices;
and with that, doing a weekly outfit suggestion called "Runway to Workway" should be on my ZanetaStyle blog a regular Tuesday posting, right?
I hope you will enjoy it...

My son just helped planting the most stunning electric BLUE Hydrangea bush in a blue flower pot because my perennial bush is taking too long to even say hello or peek at us and I could not wait any longer to see such amazing BLUE!

So our look for the first week of June "Runway to Workway" is BLUE and WHITE with the lovely Hydrangea in mind!


I CHOSE THIS LOOK FOR the Runway to Workway inspirational dressing: by Paul Smith:

It is perfect for a work look or a day look during the week and I had to think of Tina from the THE ENCHANTED HOME BLOG as her "blue and white" passion is famous! ((: and I believe she would enjoy this colour combo too!



Here is how you can achieve this kind of look without being able to find the Paul Smith one!

These are similar pants by Elizabeth & James and you may get them on NET - A - PORTER . COM

Wearing it with this lovely JIL SANDER BLOUSE

Or perhaps this solid colour blouse is more you? DVF Blouse

And you can show your toned arms with this LANVIN draped top.

And if this is not the look for you this week, please scroll below to get more inspiration from this addictive BLUE!

The hair maybe too much for a week day look? Sure save it for the weekend (:

ALSO, if you don't want just the blue and white after all:

I was quite taken by this lovely post ON BLUE WITH RED by Sharon from FASHION ISHA BLOG !!

Hope you had a nice time with the BLUE dreaming today and have a great well dressed week!

XO Z
