Khakis are cool or warm too.

White pants. Love the look of navy and white together. Classic.

I would not do slim pants if the top is slim fitting on you. I find that contrast in silhouettes looks more modern - so if top is shape hugging, than wider pants and skirts. I echo the wide white pants, also maybe a longer pleated a-line skirt would be fun.

Cream/winter white slacks or a shirt dress will work.

Navy pairs well well orange and green.

And you might be able to find a blue dress or slacks that will work. Take the blazer to the mall and see what you find.

I would not mix navy separates. Much better to do cream/brown/camel/black/charcoal and then add 1 navy element. If you want navy that all matches, buy a suit.

You might try gray as well.

I only pair navy with white and tan. Personally, I would pair that with wide leg white trousers, a white fitted high neck top, and a gold necklace

Khaki, olive, white pants, but not navy. A solid or maybe striped tee shirt underneath.

Thanks! To be honest, I still have trouble telling cool v warm undertones, so appreciate that guidance. It's definitely the issue with the pants I had hoped to pair with this blazer.

Wear with a navy top in the same shade and contrasting pants.

It's very difficult to wear a jacket and pants of the same color (but not sold together) unless there's enough of a pattern in the jacket that it doesn't look like you're trying to match.

This is really helpful, thank you! Do you have advice on what fabic I should consider if I was looking for a contrasting dress in tan or green? Wool? And should I be looking for a sheath?

A navy blazer looks great with a nice pair of denim jeans, but of course that may be too informal for your office. And, yes, you could do tan pants, but I would do a slimmer fit. Not wide leg!

Thank you! I like the idea of slim tan pants! And yes, will definitely wear with jeans too.

I bought the blazer in the link below with the intention to wear it with a pair of wide leg navy wool pants. But much to my disappointment, the two navys just clash. The blazer is much darker and looks almost black against the pants and I think the undertones are working against each other.

Any advice on:
1. Mixing navy pieces? I am trying to move away from black and like the idea of an all navy outfit, but haven't perfected its execution.

2. How I should style this blazer? Do you think it could work with a pair of tan pants?
