Paint color for bedroom--help!

OK...so I am DYING for new bedding(why not, any excuse works for me), but the fact that we are painting and moving this week and I am starting my new job I don't want to just do a rush job and just grab something.

I have this set I got from my wedding...
what color can I paint my room without marrying myself to it...I wanna change it in the near future.

Help!

I think an egg shell/ecru color would be nice. It will be easy to paint over and goes with everything.

I think taupe is your best bet but more tan than grey. If you do to much grey in the color it will look to drabby.

Taupe. This set will stand in any neutural tone, actually.

If you have the bedding already, take a pillowcase to the paint store and hold up the swatches to the case.

You'd be surprised how colors that are one off from each other on the color wheel can either so be the right shade or the wrong shade.

If you go to a designated paint store, aka Benjamin Moore, there is often a decorating consultant there that might be able to help you.
