What colour jacket with navy please?

[ChocolateIsNotSleep]

Hi there, I've been trying to build a not very capsule wardrobe with lots of navy, grey and blue and white stripes with paler blue and pink accent colours. However, now its getting colder I'd like a smarter jacket to wear to meetings etc and I'm not sure what will work best. Possibly a camel coloured one? Or grey? I think navy looks a bit too matchy unless its either a suit or the texture is very different plus its so hard to get shades that work together.

Any links much appreciated!

I'm a mostly WAHM and don't need to be super smart but would like something a bit stylish. I'm mid-thirties, reasonably tall and slim but have big boobs which rules out anything too straight or with too many buttons.

I'm also looking for a cosy, chunky knit cardigan that I can belt for WAH days when its cold but still have to leave the house to collect kids without looking like a bag lady as usual.

T very much IA!

what colour is your footwear - more blacks (in which case grey perhaps) or more browns (in which case navy?)...

camel would work with all you have except possibly pink...

Burgundy is lovely with navy and grey and will tone in with any pink or pale blue items you have. I wouldn't go for camel myself.

Ooh thanks for the replies! I have both black and tan boots. I'm blonde and a "summer" colour so not sure if burgundy is a bit rich/dark for me? I was thinking I'd need to avoid camel ones that were in the orangey side for the same reason.

I did see a nice Zara blazer in camel but it's sold out in my size

I'd be inclined to stick with grey for the coat but I think you need a splash of red in there somewhere. Red leather gloves perhaps?

Thanks burnishedsilver I like the sound of that! I love leather gloves! Maybe a nice burgundy and navy scarf too, spotted a gorgeous one on pinterest!

Has anyone bought anything from New Look recently? I haven't been in there in years but spotted this on shopstyle and thought it could be an inexpensive way to try it out - but if its hideous quality it will be a waste of time: www.newlook.com/shop/womens/jackets-and-coats/burgundy-jersey-blazer-_345606567?isRecent=true

I am a blonde summer colour and I love wearing burgandy / aubergine in the winter. it goes really well with black, brown and grey so it's a fab versatile colour for winter.

And navy blue.....I meant to say.
