English term or phrase: And every day is a Sunday.
Cette phrase est un sous-titre dans la présentation d'une marque de vasistas dont le système fait pénétrer un maximum de lumière du jour dans une pièce ou un bâtiment.

J'ai un peu de mal à voir comment trouver en français un équivalent à ce jeu de mots. Certains d'entre vous se sentent inspirés ?

and every day is a sunday.
Profiter du soleil tous les jours


Explanation:
The pun is a bit strained in English, so not really worth preserving.

  -> Your comment makes no sense at all. You appear not to understand the source text posted by the Asker.
agree  Daryo: une vie sans problèmes [=>Profiter du soleil] + "tous les jours" -- ça rend bien l'idée du texte source
18 hrs
  -> Thanks Daryo. I hadn't even realised that my suggestion included that meaning!
agree  Premium✍️: Si l'on décompose "sun day => every day", cela rejoint bien l'idée que vous proposez de "profiter du soleil (sun day) tous les jours.

  -> Thanks MultiPro. That is, indeed, the rather weak pun used in the source text.

disagree  B D Finch: The source text has nothing whatsoever to do with Sunday, other than being a pun on that word, one that doesn't work in French as "dimanche" doesn't incorporate the word "soleil".
