I would put it away and look again another. Try some bright peach or electric plain blue

I would avoid a WOW or Cream color - I think it will take away from the gorgeous, shimmery light fabric you already have. I think your best option is the light peachy color in your print fabric. As a few others have said - matching that color should make the other colors really pop! Love your fabrics!!
Possibly try this one Michael Miller Fairy Frost in Creamsicle - CM376 swatchhttp://www.michaelmillerfabrics.com/...=Fairy%20Frost

I'd pick up a WOW peach. I think you need a color to make it pop. Take a look at Irishrose's avatar, that is a great color.

I would go with a peachy color to help it be more lady like.
