You make me blush! Sveta,I bought this house so I could put the big slider in that room. When you walk in the front door at the other end of the house, you will be able to look down the main hall through the new big opening and into the garden. Totally So Cal indoor/outdoor awesome! And believe it or not, it was originally just a plain wall with two medium-sized windows. Crazy, says I!

Isn't dressing well the best way to impose a little order on the chaos? Outfit is fab as always, but maybe even more style points for the cucumber coolness of high contrast black and white, with a shot of colour.

As usually - glreat outfit. I see you are putting in a big patio door,no? We have replaced our 3' patio door with huge 12' sliding double door and this was the best decision ever (even though fiarly expensive but worth every penny) DonnaF on "WIW 8/27: Black and white and cobalt, again" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-827-black-and-white-and-cobalt-again#post-1341407 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 00:54:44 +0000 DonnaF 1341407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Count it as a major victory when your workers come consecutive days for days and days on end!!!  [versus working on multiple jobs semi-simultaneously]  Ask me how I know. . .

Oh, coming back to say I always appreciate your critiques and outfit input!  :)
