Valspar
Bluish

It can turn sweet if paired with bright white furniture and pastel bedding, so ground it with oak or woven shades. In bright daylight, expect a crisp, open look rather than a muted one.

Bluish in Different Light
Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV
54.4LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
