Help selecting shade of Blonde

I am thinking of making the transition from Red which I love but it's a p.i.t.a to keep looking good to Blonde over a period of time but I'm trying to decide which Shade is right for my skin tone. There are so many and I'm overwhelmed...Ash, Champagne,Strawberry,Platinum,vanilla, caramel etc and in which light,med or dark, there's also bronde's or doing an ombre or balayage tech with highlights or lowlights....ahhh too many choices lol. Please help me narrow it down. I believe I am of the cool skin tone variety with pink undertones but I'm not exactly sure.

Here is a link to my dropbox folder containing some pics of me in various lighting lol to help and another folder containing some examples I've come across and liked:
