What color ribbon goes best? PLEASE PLEASE respond!!!

My MOH is wearing this color combination the picture won't post- here is the link -( it is bill levkoff COLLECTION the first dress which is style 700- champagne top, taupe bottom - in case the link does not bring you to the picture):

http://billlevkoff.com/collections/index.asp?dress=845



one of my BMs is wearing this dress in the champagne color and comes with a dark chocolate brown belt:



We want to order a lighter color ribbon that most closely matches the taupe color in my MOH's dress. If you had to choose from these colors, which one would you say goes best?



colors from top to bottom: Ecru, Eggshell, blonde



colors from top to bottom: beige, earth, tubac, cafe

TIA!!!

It's really hard to tell, but I was thinking maybe blonde. Another idea might be to take the shawl that's included with the MOH's dress and have someone remove just a thin strip of it, re-hem it, and make a belt, that way it's an EXACT match. Hope this helps.

Yea, I would agree with smileaways. I think blonde would be the closest match based on the picture but its so hard to tell. Beautiful dress though!

I was between those 2, but I think the blonde is closer.

I like the idea about making the belt from a shawl for MOH's dress. Then it woud be an exact match.
