    Anything should go with cream - maybe you should consider if the room is north or south facing - possibly north if it is really dark. Then it is nice to have something with a warm tone (oranges and red) rather than a cool tone (blue and yellow). Take a look at the dulux paints that they mix for you (B&Q) - the display is split up by warm and cool tones so it is easy to see what's what - I have cappucino candy in a north facing bedroom - it is very light but has a warm pinky orange tone.
