Go with a non-yellow shade - something in the grey or bluish-white, or even a greenish-white color. As Monk always said, "you'll thank me for that later."

lol. I always thought beige/greige colors looked like baby poop.
I went with a color called big chill from Sherman Williams. It's a light neutral gray with a very subtle bluish tint depending on the light hitting it. it brightens up the room and has a fresh clean look to it but also doesn't come across as cold or sterile at all.
Another really nice light neutral gray is Benjamin Moore gray owl, which I guess is more on the subtle greenish side.
