I just bought a new duvet from Anthropologie...here it is for a visual reference..http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/catalog/productdetail.jsp?_dyncharset=ISO-8859-1&_dynSessConf=8496938339592941809&id=79526&parentid=SLEEP_SALE_BEDDING&pushId=SLEEP_SALE_BEDDING&popId=SLEEP_SALE&sortProperties=&navCount=6&navAction=poppushpush&fromCategoryPage=true&selectedProductSize=&selectedProductSize1=&color=spu
Jeez that was long. Anyway, I was wanting a accent color...my style is a bit bohemian if that helps. The green is actually more of a forest green...which is why I'm having some trouble. Thanks in advance!

jewel tones will look fab with this look at deep reds, rich golds, sapphire blues, heavy dark tans will also look nice. no pastels or soft colors with this one - have fun with your decorating! the duvet looks really nice!

I'd use a couple colors to accent around the room, maybe some dark brown and red, use different pillows, a throw blanket at the foot of the bed, some curtains. Bohemian is all about not matched.

The picture didn't come through for me (could be prob on my end), but for forest green I would say other shades of green, gold, or maybe burgundies & rose shades.
Of course, you could also do earth tones, but I think for the bohemian look the gold and bright rosy shades might work well.

Hi. I have forest green in every room of my house! Having taken a look at your duvet, here are the colors I find most appealing: burgundy and caramel - I painted my walls in those colors: ceiling and half wall caramel, lower half of wall in burgundy - it cuts the green and I find it very relaxing. Hope this helps you a bit!

Navy goes beautifully with forest green.

With forest green I would use a frosty silvery mint green or your favorite shade of tan (beige).
