I hate buying things online because they never look like what is pictured. All I have to say is the pictures do not do it justice. This is a stunning comforter. I purchased it for my new home in the blue/white combo...not only are the color vivid, it's very soft and perfect in size as I like my comforter to come to the end of my matteress on all sides. Do not look any further... ITS SIMPLY AMAZING!!!
