berets

Hey everyone. I looked in the memories but couldn't find any help for making a beret type hat. I am being a 50s girl scout for halloween and I wanted to make a hat. I made a small beret, but it looks terrible. I want it to look like this!






I tried using this site http://www.sewmodestclothing.com/makeaberet.shtml
But it seriously looked terrible when i made it. Does anyone have any suggestions, or just describe what size/shape pattern pieces would lead me to sewing this type of beret?? Would it just be a large circle and a long strip of fabric for the head band part? Help me!! Thank you!!
