Treat Yourself, They Said

Matching set. Tag still on. Four days and two Zoom calls later.

Flower shop

Aurea

i bought the set. matching. on sale. the algorithm and i are in love and i don't care who knows.

Solara

where have you worn it?

Aurea

couch. bed. couch again. a world tour.

Lunara

tag off?

Aurea

the tag stays. removing it makes it real. i'm not ready for that level of commitment.

Thyra

you've been living in it for four days. with the tag. like a museum piece that does errands.

Lunara

i have three pieces marked special occasion. so far the occasion has been unloading the dishwasher.

Solara

i posted one elegant photo and cropped out the delivery box, two mugs, and a single sock. art is mostly editing.

🔥
Thyra

the crop is doing more work than the set.

Aurea

i said i'd wear it out this weekend. it's wednesday. it has attended two Zoom calls.

Lunara

camera off?

Aurea

camera ON. blazer on top. professional up top, party underneath. business mullet.

❤️
Solara

treat yourself culture has a hundred percent conversion rate and no exit strategy.

Thyra

no regrets. would treat again. the tag stays on as a witness.
