You definitely want some colour contrast in there to help even out the "bland beige" factor.
To add some colour and warmth to the room, i'd suggest painting the wall behind the dresser/bed something like a dark rusty orange or a coppery red.
You should then try painting the dresser an olive green tone with some dark brown handles... or even give it some character by painting the 1st and 4th drawers the dark brown with green handles... maybe paint the window frame the same colour while you're at it?
Don't be afraid to go for rich, colourful fabrics for your pillow, sheets, and curtains. Try a patterned bed cover to bring some attention to that side of the room. If you have and framed photos, try hanging them together in an organized chaos kind of way.
Last thing- Lamps and plants. if you could hang some kind of decorative lamp above your bed it would fill the space nicely (draping white christmas lights are also very cozy!), and a reading lamp would make for better lighting overall. A little plant on your dresser like some bamboo would pretty much complete the homey feel... and if your feet get cold, find a nice little rug for beside your bed :) good luck!
