Had to go to two stores looking for more sheer aqua ribbon, but could only find some half the width, so that's what I'm going to have to use for the final layer of puffs on the over-skirt. I'm saving the last piece of wide sheer aqua ribbon for the upper bodice.
I also pulled out all my boxes of tiny flowers to see which colour looked nicest with the mint and gray. I looked at blues, darker aquas, various pinks, and those ribbon roses everyone else uses. But in the end I decided to go with making up my own flowers out of pink and dusty rose fabric flower bits.

I'm sewing a faux pearl into the center of each flower, and backing each one with a tiny bit of greenery. I have to sew the tiny flowers all the way around the bottom of the over-skirt as well.
I was going to sew the two skirts together onto one waistband, but now I'm thinking each skirt will have it's own waistband. It will make the outfit easier to store.
