I bought the white sheets. They aren't a bright white though. Not a true ivory either - just somewhere in between, like an off-white. It's okay for us because it's subtle, but if you were trying to match to other bright white things, it'll look a little off. I had bought a random set of white pillow cases at TJ Maxx to change out with these since I change pillow cases more often than sheets, but they're definitely whiter than the set I got from here.
