Lighting, paint, everything...1st time homeowners

Hello everyone!

I posted this bedroom a little while ago for some help, and many of the suggestions were to repost once more of the room was developed. So, here we are with the hardwood done and the one shiplap accent wall (almost) done.

Now, I really need some decor help! We tried to paint the walls a pale bluish gray (Mt. Rainier Gray from BM), but didn't really love it for the bedroom. Reminded us way too much of a little boy's room, so we are moving away from that. We are also going to stay away from neutrals, so full browns/grays are out. We are thinking of using a green like Saybrook Sage (BM) or 50% oyster bay 50% retreat (SW).

Long story short--hardwood, shiplap accent wall, sage green walls. But, what should I do about the lighting? Should we take out the two golden lights completely and cover the holes or should we replace it with some kind of a pendant? Should I take down the fan and put up a chandelier? What kind of bed frame would look best? So many questions. I'd love to hear any and all comments or links to items that you all can think of!

Styles we enjoy and are going for: vintage/classic, chinoiserie. Think Anthropologie mirrors and a classic rug! But how do I do this effectively in this space?
