This set is drop-dead gorgeous in person. The colors are very true to what you see in the picture, although the turquoise blue is a bit more muted. It goes beautifully with our gray upholstered headboard and comes with a perfect amount of throw pillows and shams to create a luxurious look without being overly fussy. The comforter is thick without being overly heavy. It did have a weird burned-hair smell when I took it out of the package but I washed it and now it's perfect. Highly recommend!
