I just got finished painting my bathroom a warm chocolate color, and was planning on using aqua as the main coordinating color. I found the perfect color towels, from Wal-Mart's new Canopy line, which is surprisingly nice. They are called seaglass, and are a very sophisticated pale aqua more on the green side. I was going to buy the rugs in aqua as well, but then I started thinking of getting that stuff in white or off-white. My shower curtain is a lovely cream with a satiny champagne geometric pattern that goes lovely with the dark walls. The tub, counter and toilet are all white. The vanity cabinet is currently pickled oak (Blech!) and I plan on painting it an espresso and installing brushed nickel pulls. I have added all brushed nickel accessories. I want a very rich spa like ambiance.

So do you vote for aqua rugs or a nice champagne or off-white? I would love to get the rugs in that great deep shag which is only available in limited colors (obviously not aqua). I thought aqua in the towels would be enough, as I plan to bring in some turqouise decorative items, and the off-white rugs could be kept on if I ever switched to another secondary color. But is the off-white too boring?
