Can you wear Navy with Brown?

On Thursday night I had a dinner date with a friend who lives out of town. I had one of those nothing to wear days, until I decided navy CAN be worn with brown.
(slightly out of focus sorry I took this with the self timer, and clearly the camera was ignoring my posing feet)
Selection of charity shop bangles. 
This is my "exotic craft" collection. You know... instead of the bakelite or bamboo collection
(While I remember, go here to see Solanah's Bakelite Tutorial)
 Jewellery spanning many decades
Final outfit (before I remembered I had those cool socks).
I was doing a Wonder Woman pose for some reason - and getting teased for it too!

Top (modern), bangles (not very old), ring (70s I think) - all charity shop
Trousers - my own design, some similar ones due in any day now
Brooch and earrings both 50s/60s - somewhere on my travels
Shoes - Hush puppies

  3. Looking good... After many conversations with dear old aunts, I have been told time and time again in true vintage any colour(almost) goes with any colour. It seems unless you knew a GI Shhh you didn't have the option of coordinating outfits!..They advise me

  10. You look lovely! Back in the 1940s Good Housekeeping paired navy with chestnut brown, so you're authentic as well :D

  12. Love the colors together! I have the same brown trousers for almost 2 months and really love to combine them with navy. In fact the trousers are my favorite pair for the colder days! I can't thank you enough for the gordious collection clothes you make! :)

  13. I have been eyeing up those shoes for a while, there are fabulous red ones, too, but I have a wide foot and not sure how wide the wide fitting H P's really are. The colours go well on you.
