The colors in this rug are much, much brighter and more vibrant than the picture suggests. I was really looking for something neutral with a slight hint of color for my living room, and that is not the case with this rug. The colors around the edges are very deep pinks and purples....the rug is incredibly girly looking. 

This is the second rug I ordered for my space and I just don't feel like dealing with the hassle of repackaging the rug/ mailing it back, so I'm just going to keep it. But it is definitely a much different look than I was going for.
