I debated a long time over several duvet covers and am so happy that I settled on this one. The color is soothing, elegant and just gorgeous!!! It's not yellow, it's not green, it's something in-between. I've paired it with powder blue sheets and back pillows and now am inspired to paint the whole room a lavender/grey color to really make this duvet pop. Couldn't be happier with this duvet. Oh, and it's also very soft.
