Ideas for Decorating a Teenage Girl's Bedroom?

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
Well since your getting older and you want a more modern room go for more vintage furniture, because its more "grown-up" but still can be really cute, fun, and quirky!
Vintage furniture falls under the lines of :

(This chair is vintage, but is younge and fun because of the pink. You could change the color if you don't like it)
http://www.thefurniture.com/store/Images/Lea/JMV/bed-met.jpg
(This bed is VERY vintage and mature, but the metal working in the frames makes it more mystical-grownup-princess look for the mature younge woman look you are going for)
http://www.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/3369559/2/istockphoto_3369559-seamless-vintage-wallpaper-pattern.jpg
(This is just a pattern for wallpaper or fabric. Its modern but vintage for a happy medium in your bedroom. If this is too childish, but you like the pattern, go with a plain white wall and have a similar fabric.A black and white themed vintage room and you could add bit of color such as red or pink. OR even blue yellow and orange to make it more modern and young, and plain-out more fun!)

(This wall paper or fabric is colorful! The fun thing about vintage fabrics is that they don't have to necessarily match. The fabricsis are very fancy-adult looking but if you mix and match fabrics it will give a more teenage fun messy, but not too messy,look)

(With vintage is you can really make it your own. This is a younger fun vintage fabric or wallpaper. Vintage can have a lot of flowers so you can go with a more traditional flower such as the one below or you can go with a more modern flower such as the one above!)

(You also mentioned you were musical! If you had the budget after you were done remodeling your room maybe adding a piano thatâs nice clean white! Also if you got really into it you could add details into the piano. Or since you are into guitars a couple of white guitar stands!)

(This vanity set is made in mind for the younge adult. Many drowers to put make-up in! Also note the decorations like the plant and lamp which will help you when you do put the final touches on your room!)

(I know this may seem far-fetch but any vintage room is in need of a classic chandelier! It doesn't have to be real, it just all depends on your budget and the size of your room!)

(This picture is just showing modern decor for a vintage/victorian room. Also take note of the fun colors and wall papers. If you aren't a fan of wall paper than going with any of those colors in paint would work too! Also if you don't like bright colors and would like to "tone-it-down" going with pastel colors would work too!) Blue, purple, yellow, pink, orange,&green
