Awhile ago we bought this beautiful bed with our tax return - I LOVE IT!!! But as time has passed I don't really like our current bedding with the bed, and it's shrunk and flattened so it doesn't look that great anyhow.
Any suggestions for what would go with this bed? My favorite color is yellow but I'm apprehensive about a beige color paired with yellow.

I think yellow would look great with beige. It's my favourite color too.
I love these:

I think bedding is a personal taste kind of thing though...so not sure what your tastes are.

@Sugar.Biscuit: hmm... I'm afraid that's not quite my style
@wheres_c: I like that first one My style is vintage, whimsical, shabby chic but mixed with color and patterns. Actually what I'm leaning toward doing is a solid colored duvet/comforting and adding colored throws and patterned pillows.
My favorite color is yellow, our bed is creamy/beige, our walls are the same color, and we have dark wood furniture.
Here are some rooms I pinned:

I think yellow is definitely doable with that headboard, but I think a golden yellow would look best with the beige. I'm a fan of solid or simply patterned bedding, as I think it looks cleaner and more expensive. I think this golden yellow set would look gorgeous with that headboard...

ETA: I think would add either turquoise/aqua! Yellow & aqua are my colors.

@photojane: I like that one a lot!! I like the simplicity of the coverlet/quilt look vs a duvet.

Target just stocked some really cute quilts. We bought one for our guest bedroom. I'm not sure how it would look with your bed fame, you'd probably have to look at them in person. They don't really look that cute online!

I was going to suggest Target's Threshold line too! I think a golden or curry kind of yellow would look lovely!

I would do darker colors (greys, blues) or a light print in a lighter color

And linen would be soooo dreamy

@Rainbow Sprinkles: that's kind of what I was leaning toward, white, turquoise and yellow mixed prints, patterns etc.
@luckypenny: I love that dark ink one! Gorgeous and romantic!

@Mrs. Pen: ya I think u should do solid bedding and have all the prints in the pillows!!

@Rainbow Sprinkles: found some I love!
I love this gold quilt, paired with white linens would be gorgeous and bright teal pillows. Although I do wonder if a teal/turquoise would be better as the main color... or even white as the main... idk I'm so indecisive! But I do know those are the colors I want 
West elm actually has a ton of bedding I love. I really love the layered "busy" looks with lots of colors and coordinating patterns (like stripes and ikat, etc).
I'm still really in love with that first picture I posted of the teal quilt and want to find it!!
