I think stay away from grey, you need towels that pop. Mint and lemon, even fluoro orange (I know, I know, it sounds ghastly) but Aura by Tracie Ellis have a divine range of beautiful geometrics, not block colours. This is the only example I have on hand, but I featured the collection on my website. Just gorgeous. http://dontcallmepenny.com.au/new-aura-textiles-for-bed-and-bath/ Have fun choosing now.

Thanks everyone. Nik Star I did get some colour swatches for navy, but then didn't have the courage to go ahead. Think I will have to just be content with some navy towels.

the black marble with white stone veins through it. the picture you uploaded seems to have a name of milky way on it.

Thanks for the input! do you think that subway or 6x6 tiles would be better in the shower? Im not sure why but i was thinking that the 6x6 might be more consistent with the style of the basin. Dark blue or light blue for the accent tile in niche? Its a VERY small bathroom which was why I was leaning towards white floor. Trying to make it feel bigger. But maybe thats an error. This is the floor tile that I was considering. Too busy? I have to admit I like the dark blue tile of the last photo that Dreamer posted alot but was worried that a dark color would not work in a small space.
