I need your help.

I want to buy some new bedroom furniture. Picture the scene.... purple damask flock wallpaper (one wall) rest of the walls white. black chandelier and black shades on the silver bedside lamps. Black sort of ornate chair thing. Purple curtains, purple bed and loads of lovely purple and black cushions.

What sort of furniture do i buy to go with this lot that i dont want to change i was thinking mirrored, but it will date quickly and be a nightmare to polish. So then i though can i go white ? would shabby chic white go with that lot.

I did something similar with the bed in my guest room - an old pine bed stead.  First painted it blue (light, dove blue) and then painted it white.  Sanded the bits where it would be natural wear and tear.  YOu can then wipe on a stain that makes it look really olde worlde.

Have a look in house clearence shops or even auctions.  Or if you really can't find anything, try Argos cheap wood range.  Unfinnished wood would be good.
