Royal Velvet Towels - fit for royalty!

I received my first set of Royal Velvet bath towels as a gift and I was impressed the moment I opened the package.  What I loved the most was the color, black!  I have an almost gothic-looking bathroom in deep burgandy and black with wrought iron decor and the towels went with it perfectly.  I didn't even know they made black towels, I certainly have never seen them at Target! 

Since they were a gift, I couldn't ask how much the towels cost, but I was able to get a location, Kohls.  I went to hunt for more.  When I found the huge display of Royal Velvet towels, I was almost overwhelmed by their color selections!  Just about every color you could imagine was available!  I admit that after looking at the colors, the next thing I looked at was the price.  I was a little taken back by the thought of spending $15 on a single bath towel, but decided to splurge and bought a couple more.

The towels are very thick and absorbant and do a great job drying you off.  However, I did find that the colors do start to fade after about 6 months of washing.  The black was the worst, but that seems to happen with most black fabrics after several washings.  Otherwise overall, they have held up quite well.  After about a year, none have started to fray or get much thinner.  I'm just about ready to go load up on some new ones, as I've been very happy with these.
