I'm going to a wedding at the beginning of May, and feel totally frumpy because I can't wear anything dressier than a t-shirt dress (nursing Mom... sigh). The bride definitely won't find me under-dressed as it is, but I wanted to dress it up with a hat. My husband hates hats because they make him feel old, but has given in. LOL
I was thinking of something like a fascinator or small straw hat, but I came across this hat on kijiji. Is it old enough to be vintage? Or is it too big to be worn at a tilted angle? Also wondering if black velvet anything is too much for a spring wedding (or Easter, which is the only other time I'd likely wear a non-functional hat). Then again, this hat would cost a fraction of the price of anything new.
Someone please tell me that I'm not crazy for obsessing over my own attire more than the wedding gift!
Thoughts: buy it and wear it? look elsewhere and come back if I can't find anything affordable? run as fast as I can from anything vaguely 80s?

ETA: ok, going with the consensus and forgetting the hat--this one anyway. Dress suggestions are welcome, but in my experience, "nursing-friendly" tops or dresses are an exercise in flashing a crowd! Should have mentioned I'm nursing a toddler, so he'll have to nurse sometime but I can't predict his schedule or hide him under a scarf. Links to pictures of the dresses I have: this one in white and gray, and this one in the black as pictured.
While I'm at it, since folks are suggesting a necklace instead, here's an option I already have:
