Dark Blue/Navy Suit With What Colored Shoes?
 

I recently added a beautiful dark blue/Possibly Navy suit to my wardrobe. I was told not to wear black shoes with a navy colored suit.


I'll probably wear lavender, blue and burgundy colored shirts with it. I was given options such as dark brown, brown, navy, or burgundy shoes. Other stated Black is okay and others stated brown was a NO NO.......(sigh)


What color shoes do you folks wear with dark blue/navy colored suits?

I typically wear black shoes with a navy suit .... believing black matches w/ everything... although my fiance ... in my last trip to CA ... told me that's a no-no.

Who knows? *shrug*

Consider the color of your suit. Black shoes work best with navy, gray (all shades) and black suits. Brown shoes work with tan suits, as well as some shades of navy and black. Black is considered the dressiest shoe color.

All I have to say is YOU POOR GUYS!!!! Only a few colors of shoes to choose from.

I'm glad I'm a woman!

I always wear navy or red leather shoes when I'm in navy. I only have one navy outfit, it's my worse color. But if I wear it, I always choose a red or white or red/white stripped shell underneath.

I usually go with a shade of brown when wearing a blue suit unless I'm just wearing a shirt and tie that would clash with it. Or you could just go true brother with it and get you some blue gators to match. :)

Renda,
It's so funny that we have a thread about shoes. That's the last thing I ever buy and purses. I hate buying shoes! :ursofunny

Is brown the new black? You just never know with fashion.

It has to be the right shade in order to work. With a navy suit I would wear a dark brown ...you just have to be careful with the shade or else it doesn't look right.

I always see men wearing black with navy. Must not know here in the south that it ain't right. :)
