Blue sofa ideas?

To all you amazing people with style - currently have a main ripped old comfortable leather 3 seater - approx 20 years old. Even i now think it looks bad so i wanted to upgrade to something more lovely. We have a 2nd leather sofa too but its in near perfect condition so id like to keep it. But questions :

Fabric or leather - can i get fabric to sit alongside the leather one? Ive never had fabric and i wondered how clean i could keep it?

My home is very coastal colourwise - could blue work (alongside a brown leather sofa)
Where would you recommend getting a sofa from? Ive read a few bad reviews about Loaf so its put me off but any other ideas?
Ultimately i want a sofa for me and my children to cosy up in - pricewise, could stretch to say 1.5K but would like to keep as low as possible!

Really pleased with them so far. Not expensive. Bonus that the seats are covered both sides too. Really comfy and just wipe with a damp cloth and they come up great. I have brown wood flooring and wooden bookcases and tv unit. So they definitely go with brown.

@ringsnthings that's gorgeous! So I already have a brown sofa so not sure what to have alongside it.

If you have a DFS near you maybe worth having a look at the other colours they have. Most of them in that range were lovely. Hope you find something you like..it's a minefield picking new sofas😊

Drury from very is an excellent choice , great value and really lasts well. I bought mine maybe 6 years ago and then moved house and gave one to my daughter ( 4 kids age 1,2,4,5) and one to my sister (2 kids with additional needs age 10,13) and the covers wash brilliantly. They always just put a throw over the arms to protect them and then wash the bottom cushions and scatter back every few weeks. The colour has lasted really well and the 4 seater sectional splits into 2 to make it way easier to get in and without the scatter cushion in the back the same exact size as a single bed so I used a water proof mattress cover on the bottom….. and super comfy for sleeping on if you gave guests. Wet had two for seaters and posted together they made an amazing kingside movie night nest.

attached a photo to prove it’s still going strong and they are getting another one as they love it so much.

Also with very if you don’t already have an account you can sign up and get 15-20% of your first order so even cheaper. You can also take it in bnpl with some discount offer codes codes at times and pay out of as soon as you like ( I often do this)
