I got the turquoise one and it is very soft. I am disappointed in the color though. It is MUCH darker than the picture. It's almost a dark teal and dark brown/olive green color. I had planned to use this for a newborn photography shoot I am about to do and now I just can't use it. It would not look pretty at all against newborn skin. Would probably make the baby look green. I think I will keep it and see if I can find something to wear it with. If you are looking for something light colored... this is certainly not it.
