Navy Jacket, jeans --> color shoes?

[icebook]

OK i have a navy blazer I want to pair up with jeans. The wash on the jeans known as "brown sugar" the style is "tyler" http://www.paperdenim.com Now would it be OK to wear black shoes? If it was an all navy suit I'd think a dark oxblood wingtip would work but that doesnt look right with jeans. So is what I am thinking going to work? Or will it look wrong? And for that matter what about belt color....

it pretty much is a navy suit, so try mid- to dark-brown shoes or boots - in suede, if you've got it.

and if you have any doubt about the belt color, match the shoes.

i'll thow in a vote for tan as it adds some punch and contrast.

Perhaps some of the Blue or Navy shoes on Yoox would work for you. There were a few pairs of green that could be nice as well.

Like the jeans-- I recently blew out my favorite pair of jeans, which are no longer available (I MAY have found them as old stock at a store in NYC.....if so, I might buy two pair so I can make them last as long as possible!!). I haven't tried Paper Denim yet, but might check it out this fall after seeing your pair, in various washes:



Does the navy blazer have blue/ black buttons (or brass/ silver?)? I wear that with either black chelsea boots, or loafers with hardware (in just about any color). Also, recommend a wild striped shirt with the outfit to shake things up (as opposed to just a white shirt, unless it is a slim cut and a little rumpled)

Here are the shirts I'd probably wear with it, if it proves of interest to ya--

Paper Denim are great mid-price range jeans. They aren't as nice as R&R which is the only premium denim I buy but they are easily as good as Mavi. They are also a really soft well broken in denim.

Blue buttons. Its a Versace Classic jacket I have from a suit I picked up a year or so ago.
