Shoes for navy velvet jeans?

[Hoyaheel]

I just bought these jeans and I love them, but I don't know what shoes to wear! (I got them for an extra 30% off from a coupon I had) I love the way they look - other than needing to be hemmed:rolleyes: -but won't keep them if I can't figure out what to wear with them. I rarely wear navy - only pair navy shoes I have is slingback pumps for business. I really don't like navy & black worn together - I guess I'm old-fashioned because to me it looks like you tried to color match and failed. Any suggestions? I'm thinking maybe metallic, but I want daytime use (and potentially casual evening/weekend use) from the pants. Thanks!

I like grays, but that's my new favorite neutral! :D :D :D

You'll never be able to match the navy's so I'd go with chocolate brown pumps or boots and the same color turtleneck.

Either boots, or a metallic heel...depends if you want to "dress it up" or "down"....they still have the look of jeans, so they lean to the more "casual" styles.

Meant to say brown suede.

[Hoyaheel]

Brown, huh? I have lots of brown...I didn't think brown went with navy either. Guess I shall try stuff on tonight and see if I like it!

 

(I never wear grey either, so I don't own any grey shoes)

I agree that brown will work great.

The pewter looks really cute (they also come in navy, though you'd have to see if navys would work together).

Ottawa - that's sort of what I was thinking - a co-worker of mine has some really cute moccasin/ballet flats in a muted silver she wears all the time with work pants and they look so cute on her.

 

I tried with some brown suede ballet flats I have and it was ok, but didn't wow me. At least I have *something* though. Guess that means I'll keep the pants;)

[TerriSea]

I love the pewter kidskin flats! They would look smashing with navy velvet! Gray and/or pewter: good recommendations!

 

I would also say most browns would look OK. Also I wear bronze high heel metallic cowboy boots with navy pants and they ....surprisingly work!

 

Inside the box: Navy and brown

 

Slightly outside the box: Pewter, gray, bronze, bone, silver/graphite, camel/caramel, spectator or two-tone pumps or flats, tapestry

 

Really outside the box: yellow, red, animal prints (snake, cheetah, zebra), floral prints or polka dots

 

Have fun! Would love to know what you choose!

Those are absolutely adorable! Sadly, they do not have my size.... :( :( :(

Green, red, bright purple, luggage color brown boots, I could go on and on. I just also got a pair of navy velvet jeans, which I am wearing with a bright chartreuse boxy jacket and green python and kind ballet flats. I think whatever you can wear with denim, you can wear with navy. I would love to see then with bright red or a gorgeous royal purple!

--Judy (too many pairs of identical flats in different colors!)

I have some pewter flats that seem to look good with just about everything.

If you are going casual, I agree with the brown or grey....

 

If you are going fancy or snazzy, I'd go with a metallic silver with rhinestones in a stilletto heal. :)

 

Depends on the top too....I'd go with a silver hanky, drape type shirt.....

Black patent leather looks great with navy velvet and won't look like you tried to color match and failed.

[Bonnie Voyager]

Dark burgundy or mahogany is also a nice color with navy pants.

 

Something like these, if you are just looking for casual shoes...

I love matallics, They are my favorite neutral

Right now I am really in love with pewter and bronze.

[Jane110]

I would go with Cognac colored leather.

 

You have to try on the shoes w/ the pants and make sure it's all in balance. Shoe/heel shape is critical with jean silhouette and hem width.
