What To Wear With Navy Blue Shirt

So, You've Got a Navy Blue Shirt, Huh?

Okay, let's talk. Everyone owns a navy blue shirt. It’s like the unwritten rule of adulthood. I bet you have at least three lurking in your closet right now. Admit it!

But what do you actually *wear* with it?

The Obvious (and Slightly Boring) Choices

Jeans, obviously. A classic. You can't really go wrong with jeans, unless they're acid-washed from the 80s. Please, don't do that to the navy blue shirt. It doesn't deserve that kind of treatment.

Khakis? Sure. Safe. Maybe a bit *too* safe. You might accidentally look like you're about to sell insurance. No offense to insurance salespeople, but we're aiming for slightly more exciting, right?

My (Slightly Unpopular) Opinions

Here's where things get interesting. Prepare for some controversial statements. Are you ready?

First off: orange. Yes, you read that right. Orange. Not like, construction worker orange, but a nice burnt orange or even a poppy orange. It's surprisingly chic. Trust me. I'm practically a fashion guru (in my own mind, at least).

Think of it as a subtle nod to nautical vibes. Navy and orange scream "I own a yacht...or at least I *wish* I did!"

Secondly: animal print. Hear me out! A touch of leopard print with your navy blue shirt can be unexpectedly fabulous. A leopard print scarf or a belt? Chef's kiss! You'll look like you know what you're doing, even if you don't.

Just don't go overboard. We're aiming for stylish, not "Carol Baskin at a PTA meeting."

The "Maybe, But Proceed With Caution" Options

Red can work. But it's tricky. You need the *right* shade of red. Too bright and you'll look like a walking stop sign. Too muted, and you'll just look drab.

I'd say, if you're feeling brave, go for a deep burgundy. It's sophisticated and a little bit mysterious. Like you're hiding a secret. (Maybe you *are*! I don't know your life.)

Yellow is another gamble. Mustard yellow? Potentially amazing. Bright, sunshine yellow? Might make you look a bit like a highlighter. Proceed with caution and a good mirror.

Don't Forget the Accessories!

A statement necklace can elevate a simple navy blue shirt. Something bold and colorful. Maybe even...orange? (I’m just saying!).

A cool belt can also make a difference. Leather? Suede? Even a funky woven belt can add some personality to your outfit.

Shoes! Don’t underestimate the power of good footwear. Sneakers? Boots? Sandals? It all depends on the vibe you're going for.

Ultimately, It's Your Navy Blue Shirt

The best thing about a navy blue shirt is that it's a blank canvas. You can really make it your own. Experiment! Have fun! Don't be afraid to break the "rules."

Who knows, you might even start a new trend. Navy blue and neon green, anyone? (Okay, maybe not. But hey, I admire your adventurous spirit!).

Just remember: confidence is the best accessory. Wear whatever makes you feel good. And if someone judges your navy blue shirt and orange pants combo? Well, they're probably just jealous of your impeccable style.

Now go forth and conquer the world, one navy blue shirt outfit at a time! And maybe send me a picture of your orange pants. I'm curious.
