Ever since I was young, the life of Marie Antoinette has always intrigued me. After the film Marie Antoinette directed by Sofia Copolla, it became one of my favorite films. I know it's not exactly historically accurate, but the movie is just visually stunning- from the costumes, to the interiors of Versailles, everything was like candy for the eyes. Especially the floral prints, flowers, ribbons, jewels, and pastries.
After seeing this ad for the perfume Miss Dior Cherie, I knew it looked familiar, and I also knew that I really liked the style of it. Here it is:

After the commercial for said perfume was released, I found out that Sofia Copolla directed it. It demonstrates Copolla's love for bright pastels like hot pink, and softer shades like baby blues, mint greens, and light yellows. Pastries and flowers are also present, and so are pretty pastel balloons. Check it out:

Anyways, I would really like to decorate my room with bright pastels, and pretty furniture, but I'd like to know some places where I could find Marie Antoinette-esque fabrics (large florals that DON'T look grandma-ish), accesories, and some ideas for what should go into my bedroom. So far I've got this:
-Brass headboard
-White wall shelves ( for books and a couple knick-knacks)
-Poofy white comforter and sheets
-Pine dresser, and nightstand (think I should ask my parents about painting them white?)
-White plastic bins for storage (how can I make them a little less modern-looking?)
-And some other little things that aren't worth listing.
For the walls I'm planning on doing a very soft bluish-green hue sort of like the color on the walls of this scene (NOTE: This is the scene that really made me decide that I wanted to decorate my room like so; so keep that in mind! Also not the floral of the curtians. THAT is the floral that I would like to see in my room.):

Or I'd like to paint the room in a soft yellow tone, like the color of the dress and flowers (on the hat) worn by the auburn-haired woman closest to the person viewing the photo:

I'm leaning towards the blue. Your thoughts?
So what I'm asking is for is pictures of and places where I can get colorful Sofia Copolla-inspired accesories and pretty rooms essentials that are reminiscent of what I've showed you. Also, tell me what you think I should do to decorate my room. Thank you! P.S. Links and photos are greatly appreciated!

Answer
the main idea for decorating is your need and function of the bedroom, as you know function for the bed room is for take a rest and sleep or in addition is for working or study.
So u just decor by using the main furniture such as: bed, closet, small table and chair and bookshelf. any things you need but not much
For the colour, I think you should paint in bright colour : blue, green, yellow, pink or white...because you are a teenager, maybe you can paint a contrust colour together to make it feel different and freshy when you come back from school.
second step is decor your wall, now aday we have many choices to choose, you can choose a cartoon picture from website and print to be big screen and attach to your wall, you can your math lesson in big sceen but try to make it nice, so u can get the special benifit from it.
If you need a picture of cute girl, I think the cutest girl is your self. make it in gray colour or a picture when you feel happiness.
