Kitchen/dining table advice

I want to save for a new kitchen table. I have had this one since we moved in 8 yrs ago and it came with the house, lol. I have no idea what color would work. I am bad at decorating. My kitchen is all gray and pretty much my living room too. Well the couch and carpet. I have maroon curtains and some black furniture. The kitchen/dining and living room are all open to one another. I didn't want to do black because I am over doing it with the black and gray. Then I have oak molding and doors. Any advice would be appreciated!

I think cream would work ---

or a nice modern looking table and chairs maybe glass top - I've seen some nice tables and chairs at Pier I Imports that won't break the bank. Dark brown or cherry might work as well.

Thanks! I'll check Pier 1. Any one else?

Maybe a Parson's style chair with a table, maybe granite topped. Black and cherry or just a cherry would be nice.

Or, Something like this
