What would you say your overall style is? What is the bed like?

the bed is the crate and barrel colette bed: http://www.crateandbarrel.com/furniture/beds/colette-bed/f1480

i'd say our taste is transitional/contemporary-ish. thanks for any input you have!

Even 'tho you don't like matchy, think of matching the nightstands and the pair of lamps. Get unusual, large lamps that make a statement. Some symmetry is good in a bedroom. If the bureau knobs are dark brass (like the example), think of lamps in a matching metal. Not matchy, but there has to be some order, uniting of elements and cohesiveness to the plan.
