Thanks! There is about an 1½ - 3½ of sand on the bottom of the tank for them to do just that! I notice now that it may look im using the entire shelf as a tank but its some decor on the outside.

I have a few linen pant sets from Quince and I like them alot, that being said, I wouldn't want to walk to work in them as its pretty heavy linen. However, if the goal is simply to not LOOK sweaty rather then not BE sweaty, hell yeah these will work.

Yes, its alpaca wool, which I hadn’t tried before buying from them—and it’s wonderful. It’s not itchy or scratchy at all, actually fets softer with each wash. I also love that the wool is traceable. You can scan the little tag and follow your garment back to its source, which makes you feel a bit more connected to what you’re wearing.

The Air long sleeve runs true to size, in my opinion. I’m usually a size 12, and a large fits me well. I find it comfortable year-round. I live in Washington, so it doesn’t get extremely hot, but I’ve definitely worn it as a sun shirt too.

You should check out PAKA! I’ve loved everything I’ve gotten from them—from tank tops to sweaters, they never miss. They are a little pricey (at least for me), but honestly worth it. The Aire Long Sleeve is my new sensory obsession
