save vs. splurge

So I've been wanting  neutral colored bedding for quite a while now, and at first i wanted white, but I realized that white would be too severe in my room so I decided on a cream color. 

And I found a BEAUTIFUL set from Anthropologie:

I think it has just the right amount of texture, but is still such a neutral color that it doesn't overwhelm...

BUT I do not have $250 to spend on bedding, regardless on how pretty it may be.

So I searched around and found one on West Elm, pretty much the same concept, just a toned down version:

What do you think?

I'm leaning on the one from West elm, especially because it's on sale right now...lol
