I have to be perfectly honest about it. The hat really did match quite well with the clothing she wore! Right down to the ruffles even! It would have been a lot better choice than any other option that I could think of! The dark blue ribbon when I thought about it would make it too dark and wouldn't fit in as well as this hat! And having the hat more similar to the guy with the white would of worked, but also conflict with the cards. So yes! You really did do well on it!
