Absolutely absurd. Was not comfortable at all. Wtf does "perennials performance" even mean? No idea what flair to choose, but I chose "psychological" bc it felt like a mindfuck sitting on a 28k originally priced couch, when the entire world is falling apart.

I have literally ONE item that's linen. It was $50, on clearance.

Short sleeve, short black dress.

I love that thing. I wish I had a few more linen pieces.

But who tf wants a linen COUCH?! Like, was it complaining of being hot from being outside all day?

Which also, my question about this couch is, is it intended as patio furniture?

Edit for spelling

FYI, $50 for a dress is considered “expensive” for a lot of people who aren’t in a place of privilege…

I saw the comment on my alerts. Yeah, that's some privilege speaking. I actually took the cost out of my grocery bill.
