Brown

7. Naturalizer Rena Boot, $250 at Zappos

A brown leather riding boot is the perfect complement to a navy sweater dress. The cider hue of this pair feels a little more sophisticated than some of the more muted browns. Plus, you get Naturalizer's signature comfort. Naturalizer Rena Boot, $250 at Zappos

8. J.Crew Menorca Padded Slingback Sandals, $98 at J.Crew

When done in a dainty, strappy sandal, brown leather can also work with a navy sundress. We're partial to the padded footbed and stretch slingback of this pair from J.Crew. J.Crew Menorca Padded Slingback Sandals, $98 at J.Crew

Black

9. Steve Madden Luiza Pump, $59.97 at Nordstrom Rack

Hear us out on this one. Though the idea of navy and black is seen by many as a faux pas, navy is actually blue mixed with black. A simple black pump can bring this out in a navy dress. We suggest adding a black belt or scarf to tie the look together. Steve Madden Luiza Pump, $59.97 at Nordstrom Rack

10. A New Day Lucy Braided Slide Sandals, $19.99 at Target

Likewise, a simple black slide sandal can work with a navy dress. The natural sole of this pair keeps the black from feeling overwhelming. A New Day Lucy Braided Slide Sandals, $19.99 at Target

Gray

11. Ulani Heeled Bootie, $189 at Marc Fisher

When you can't make black shoes work, gray fits so well with navy blue. We love the sleekness of these leather booties. They'd look super stylish with a monochrome outfit. Ulani Heeled Bootie, $189 at Marc Fisher

12. Journee Nairri Platform Sandal, $59.99 at DSW

We can't exactly point our finger on why, but gray suede feels extra-luxe (even though these are faux). Pair them with a navy mini dress for a look that can go from brunch to cocktails to even a wedding. Journee Nairri Platform Sandal, $59.99 at DSW

Silver

13. Jessica Simpson Wylane Sandal, $79.99 at DSW

Wearing a navy dress to a wedding? A silver shoe (and matching accessories!) is a must. We love that this pair from Jessica Simpson has a shiny metallic back along with bedazzled straps. Jessica Simpson Wylane Sandal, $79.99 at DSW

Coral

17. Vince Camuto Cadie Pump, $98.99 at DSW

18. Universal Thread Rachel Mule Heels, $32.99 at Target

Red

19. Alta Dark Red Suede Lace-Up Heels, $42 at Lulus

Red and navy can be tough because you may look like you're dressed for the Fourth of July, but the sexy touches of these lace-up heels distract from that association. Alta Dark Red Suede Lace-Up Heels, $42 at Lulus

20. Kendria Sandals, $69.95 at Steve Madden

Pink

21. CL by Laundry Jody Sandal, $49.99 at DSW

22. Crystal-Encrusted Flat Sandals, $39.95 at David's Bridal

Purple

24. Kenneth Cole Brooke 95 Braid Sandals, $124.95 at Zappos

Seafoam

26. Sleek Knot Detail Slingbacks, $50 at Asos

Traditional blue or green tends to look a little elementary with navy, but delicate seafoam stands on its own without competing. This pointed-toe slingback can go from the office to drinks with no problem. Sleek Knot Detail Slingbacks, $50 at Asos

27. Steve Madden Lipa Heeled Sandal, $99.95 at Zappos

These muted seafoam platforms almost function as a neutral, but the monotone aesthetic and geometric heel make them stand out for eveningwear. Steve Madden Lipa Heeled Sandal, $99.95 at Zappos

Multi-Color

28. Kelly & Katie Caital Sandal, $44.99 at DSW

Okay, this isn't really a color, but a navy dress is prime for a patterned shoe. A black dress can feel too stark against a multi-color shoe, but the less traditional feel of navy is perfect for this look. Kelly & Katie Caital Sandal, $44.99 at DSW

29. Marc Fisher Measel Sandal, $59.99 at DSW

Color block is another fun trend that navy can stand up to. The pastel combo of these heels is a nice contrast to the darker blue. Marc Fisher Measel Sandal, $59.99 at DSW

30. Betsey Johnson Kaison Pump, $69.99 at DSW

This is a bold look (with a four-inch stiletto heel!), but if you're brave enough to rock it, these striped pumps will pop against a navy dress since brighter tones of blue are included in the color palette. Betsey Johnson Kaison Pump, $69.99 at DSW
