I bought this in 3 different colors. I love them all. The colors are all a bit darker than pictured, but they're still lovely and I expect they'll fade with washing and repeated wear. I have not tried to machine wash them so I don't know how much they'll shrink, but they're pretty easy to wash in the shower and hang dry. I'll definitely be buying more because I plan to travel next summer and these won't take a lot of space in the suitcase.
