Answer
Paris is a vibrantly colorful city with every hue imaginable, so you should select the one that will help you to create the vibe you're trying to achieve in your room. If you're wanting a serene, sophisticated haven you could paint your room a soft lavender gray and have a gallery wall of framed sepia prints of some of Paris's most beautiful architecture. If you want a lively space you could paint your room a vivacious green, sky blue, or pretty turquoise and put up pictures of Luxembourg Gardens and other gems of Paris in the spring. A very soft aqua is feminine without being girlish. I attended the Maison & Objet interior design exposition in Paris last year, and kelly green was the trendiest color then. Of course, this year a new color will be in vogue. Choose what you love.
There's so much more to Paris than the Eiffel Tower or the Moulin Rouge, so you shouldn't limit yourself. Consider the colors you love the most, and how they make you feel. Reds and oranges tend to be more energetic and passionate, but they can be a bit much in a bedroom where you want to be able to relax and sleep. Medium toned blues and greens are usually more tranquil. Pastels are fresh and youthful. There's a fun coffee book titled "Paris in Color" and you can see some of the photos from it here: http://www.missmoss.co.za/2012/04/23/paris-in-colour/
Have fun decorating!

Answer
To brighten your room and make it appear larger hang your mirror anywhere on the wall opposite of the window and arrange your furniture in separate areas and decorate in each space. For a girly touch drape a lighted feather lei over your mirror.

You can buy 1/2 yard (18x45") of super cute fabric at walmart for $3 in tons of different patterns/designs in the colors in your room or cheetah - zebra print.

Make a cute accent pillow for your bed with the remaining fabric to tie everything together. Easy to sew with a needle and thread if you can't use a sewing machine.
Cut fabric 13x30"
Fold the fabric in half, in-side-out so the color/print is inside.
Sew 1/2" in, along the edge on the two long sides, leaving the short end open.
Turn pillow cover right-side-out so the color/print is on the outside.
Fill with batting or even with a sweater/shirt you don't wear anymore.
Then sew up the opening.
If you have a tv/stand, place it on the wall across from the foot of your bed.
Hang an impressive light-up poster on an open wall.
