Should I buy a bright pink velvet sofa

Hi
I’ve been divorced two years out of a pretty abusive relationship and finally got my own home again. Hooray! I have seen a beautiful bright pink velvet sofa but don’t know if I should buy it! I do want to meet my forever man so is it foolish buying such a girly colour? Maybe I should just go for another bright colour that isn’t pink
Am I massively overthinking this?!

Do it!!!!

Yes! I almost had DH agreed to a raspberry velvet sofa but we got samples of the fabric sent and it's more claret than pink in real life, which I didn't like as much. We're ordering emerald green instead!

Of course you should. I dream of a beautiful peacock velvet sofa but it's not practical for me.

Get whatever you want. But I have to say, it sounds disgusting 🤣

I’m divorced and I own an emerald green velvet sofa and a scalloped pink velvet sofa. They make me smile every day. Do it!

Definitely!

If you like it buy it.

RomeoRivers · 25/04/2024 22:46

Buy it!

Get the pink one. You deserve it.

No need to plan for a potential future partner!

I have a pink one.....my husband insisted on the pink!

If you want it get it!
