Ladies,
I read something on EHell today about a woman being berated by her friend for her inappropriate funeral attire and it got me thinking. I've been looking for a small black hat or fascinator with a little bit of black netting (not full on veil, birdcage or face covering, at most covering just a little bit of the forehead). I have some dresses that I think a hat like this would compliment for weddings and other occasions, and hats are fun.
My question is this-if I showed up to a wedding with a hat like this (I've included pics of possible examples below), would that be an etiquette faux pas? The intention is not to look like a wedding or mourning veil, but a cute accessory to compliment a dressy outfit. Black is the obvious color choice because it will match most outfits. I have been looking online for wedding hat etiquette and I'm not finding anything to this level of detail that would tell me if this was inappropriate for some reason, such as looking like funeral attire. What are your thoughts?
