i realllly like your floors. do you have any leftover pieces you could take to home depot and get a match to the greyish-brownish color in them? then get a 3.99 sample and paint a wall to test!

Greenbrier Beige BM
Stone Hearth BM
Indian River BM (its a little on the darker side)
Mocha Cream BM
Ashen Tan BM
Our old master was similar colors to your bathroom and we did Greenbrier Beige. It went really nice and was a warm tan with some greenish gray undertones.

I would actually go for a color. A tan will make the room VERY tan/brown.
I would want to throw some color in there even if its a very light shade.

Do you think a blue ish / gray would work? I'm a little disappointed b/c the marble I chose is more beige - y than creamy white. The sample was a very light creamy/white - the lot I got was deeper .......but nothing else compared to that rustic tumbled look I wanted besides travertine, which I wasn't interested in maintaining -
I want to try to bring up the cream/white/grey/blue tones and down play the beige / brown
Maybe ICEBERG - BM ....

Thank you for the pics! But I'm trying to downplay the beige in the shower and play up the floor tile instead.

I would do a light blue or green, and tie it together with a bath mat/towels like http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/store/product/avanti-laguna-bath-towels-in-mineral/124298?categoryId=12041 or http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/store/product/avanti-sandpiper-bath-towels-in-sage/128593?categoryId=12041
I think blue would be nicer with the tile, personally.

I wouldn't do a green or blue paint. I think it would cheapen it.
Go with a taupe. Add color with artwork/accessories/towels.

Have you tried SW Amazing Grey? Its fantastic and looks perfect in my white kitchen next to brownish/tan walls. definitely changes with the lighting during the day but would absolutely go with your bathroom and pick up the colors in your floor.

The bathroom looks very tranquil to me. I'd do an off-white. (But I'm also on this "light color" kick these days.  )

BM Adagio
I was thinking this, but I think it may make the cabinets look yellow because they are creamy.
I have travertine colored tiles in my foyer and kitchen and have Revere Pewter on my walls. It wouldn't be my first choice but they are both neutrals. It makes the floors look more yellow than they are.
OP, I think you should buy some samples and see how it looks in different lights and see how you like it.

Re: PLEASE help me paint my new master bath - Pic included
Thanks all !!
We chose BM Gray Cashmere. - it's a very light greenish/gray - I'll post pics when all is completed.
it's just paint, if I hate it, I can always go over it - I'm not stressing over it anymore.
I didn't want taupe or anything in the brown family b/c I don't want a beige bathroom and am trying to play up the floor, and play down the beigey tone of the marble to make it look more like the cream color I originally chose.

Restoration Hardware…I love mirror so much I bought it for our powder room in the basement. It doesn't do it justice.
