Black + Gold Bedroom ideas

Justin and I are going to be redecorating our bedroom this summer.
(I know, like EVERY room is half done. I have decorating ADD)
The bright side to this project, is that it is a pretty minor revamp. We've never done anything in there so it is just blank.
Originally, I wanted this look
But I think it might just be too dark.
I have gold side table lamps with black shades. I have black side tables. We are getting new bedding and a new black headboard. 
I think I want white walls More like this.
And curtains above the bed is a MUST. I love it. I was thinking either like the above, or like this
And, to complete the look:
We do not have regular windows in our bedroom. In fact, we do not have any windows. We have big sliding doors leading to the balcony. These will be a GREAT addition!
