I am still working on my hat. I was going to make it all white. I even worked the section that would normally have the stripe in white. Now I am looking at it and have decided that I want to add a little color. I am going to go with a lavender color. Not anything too contrasting to the white. We just got the kids coats we ordered from JC Penney's. Her's is a lavender purple and would probably go nice with the hat.
