There are a couple of things you need to ascertain first.

If all of the baseboards in the entire rest of the dwelling are of a single colour (most commonly white or cream) then continue the trend. Both white and cream will work fine in the bathroom.

If you want to undertake the task of changing the colour of your baseboards and trim work in the bathroom, remember you will need to paint the door casings, possibly the jamb and any existing window mouldings as well. Predetermine where you intend to make your colour change. If you want the color to show only in the bathroom when the door is closed - you do not paint the door jamb. If you want the colour to show when the door is open, then paint the jamb, but be careful not to get the bathroom colour on the outside door casings.

As for your choices of colour for the trim… a brown of the same colour family as your tiles, in a dark shade will do nicely, or if you are more adventurous (and have a bit of faux finishing experience) you could paint the trim the same (or very close) colour as the tiles and "dry brush" a metallic copper over the top. It is a bit of extra work, but the result is always worth the effort.
