How to wear a bowler hat? Also what to wear it with?

Ok, so a female friend and I were looking in an op-shop, and I saw a top hat. It didn't fit, but it turns out there was also a bowler hat on sale, which DID fit. It's not felt, but I think it's made of cardboard and velour.

I really want to wear it, I'm not a "hipster" but I don't exactly dress the same way as other people. I generally dress in jeans and trainers, with black T-shirts, but I am planning to clean up my look...

Also, I have a formal school event, which is semi-formal, which means nice shirt and dress pants. I'm planning on buying my first suit to wear to it, and I was wondering if you guys think I should wear my awesome new hat?

All in all, I just want some tips on how and when to wear it.

Update:

Oh, I should add this:

I'm a 14 (turning 15 in December) year old guy, I have black hair, I'm 182 CM's tall (that's like, dead on 6

foot) I have blue eyes, and black hair.

Update 2:

I feel I should say I'm not a hipster...mainly because if I wear something, it's because I like it. I don't do things simply BECAUSE they're mainstream, like hipsters seem to do, I do/wear things because I like them, not because they're unusual.

Not being mainstream is just a happy coincidence...

    You're too young to be a hipster... But you're getting close

    If you stay really clean it would help... But sounds like a lot of your clothes are sorta hipster...
