What color would look right with this shade comforter? I need some design advice!?

Question

Just purchased a duvet cover and 2 pillow shams in the shade of Sea Spray from West Elm. This shade is a very light blueish green tinted color (if that makes sense). I would also like to purchase a sheet set and 2 additional pillow cases, however I'm stumped on which color/shade to choose. Is it okay to get them in the same color or will that be too much? I was thinking maybe white? But white makes me a little nervous. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

It truly depends on what else you have going on in the room. There are so many choices that would work.

Would need to know the wall/trim and furniture and window treatments style and color to answer you.

Answer 2

Choose the same color with another color you like, and used striped sheets. If you find striped sheets and like the secondary color, choose pillow cases in that accent color. White is just safe. If you want to have some fun, splash some color.

Answer 3

Forget white. Get three shades: medium bluesh green, dark green and light blue. Or get a sea foam, blue water color, and one darker blueish green. You will know when you see it that it is right. Try stripes. Look around, take time and have fun.

Answer 4

Black, dark gray, the same type blue but much darker. You didn't say how old you are but if you're a "girly girl" teen you can even go with hot pink & touches of a lighter shade of pink. You could go with a navy type blue & purple print or a solid dark bluish purple
