Although I waited for this chair because it was on backorder, it was worth the wait.  The color is a bit more pale blue than sky blue truthfully.  It matches my bedroom décor perfectly. I absolutely love the studs, it gives it life.  The material has a velvet like feel to it.  I thought the ottoman would be small but its definitely bigger than I've anticipated which gives the true meaning of being an ottoman.  It's definitely suitable for a plus size person. It is light in weight which is a plus.  It's truly a great accent to my bedroom.
