so I accidentally bought a Navy suit (I thought it was black) so I went out and got Navy pumps.

But when I put them next to each other the shoes are much Bluer than the suit.

Is this normal? What should I do?

I wouldnt wear black. I would either keep the navy or exchange them for camel colored shoes or even a bone color looks really nice with navy but that depends on what blouse you plan on wearing under the jacket also

You don't have to match everything exactly. I'd probably go with a brown, beige, or grey shoe.

Brown is a lot more suitable for the navy blue suit.

I agree. I would return the navy shoes and get something camel color or brown.

I agree with camel or a chocolate brown with navy. I also like to do red (not bright red) with my navy suits/skirts.

I was going to suggest camel - I would not wear navy or black

Thanks everyone. The blue shoes are so out. I have to dress "very corporate" so red or strappy are out".

I'm gonna check out some of the other suggestions and see which looks best. Thanks
