Please help pick paint color UPDATED

I want to paint my bedroom but I have no clue what color. I was thinking of doing a blue cause i liike the way blue and brown looks. Any suggestions?
My bedding is the one that is only the shades of brown.



Updated...What do you think of this blue?

Thanks, but I am not sure it will look right on the walls. Will it be too bright?

Hard to say- I did wonder when I first replied if it might be TOO blue, but without seeing the room it's hard to say for sure.

I think this might be one of the situations where it might be a good idea to get some of those little Ben Moore sample pots and try a few different shades of the same color.

I have your bedding -
It has a green tone to it, so you can do any warm or cool color to compliment green - I think the blue will work - You just have to play UP the browns rather than the green tones of the bedding -

Unfortunately, I'm in an NYC apartment now and can't paint .......so mine is up against a barewhite wall - Chat Icon

I just painted my bedroom a blue/green color that is GORGEOUS!!!! It's Benjamin Moore Quiet Moments - it was such a good choice.
It's so beautiful in the day and evening.
My sheets are blue/green too.
They have this color available as a sample too so you can try it out for a few bucks w/o buying a big size.

I just got the one on the right (with the blue) = courtesy of Diana1215 today (Chat Icon) and my bedroom is very close to the beige in the comforter. Looks nice b/c the curtains are the blue color in the comforter.

I would go with the blue. If you are keeping your comforter colors for a while, if not, I would go copley grey.
