Have a bargain new jacket/blazer but need help with dress/skirt to go with it, please?

I had a lucky win, with this, which fits beautifully and is really gorgeously tailored, but am just not used to wearing proper jacket + something sensible. Am comfortable doing jacket with jeans, or dress on its own, but I've got something coming up at work where it'd be good to try and be relatively formal.

Has anyone come across a nice and not too expensive dress or skirt that might work with this, for someone with not much waist and who worries about anything too fussy or frilly?

I was thinking of navy, though that might be playing it safe - what other colours are nice with that kind of silvery grey?

Any help or suggestions very gratefully received!

That's a lovely jacket. Congrats. Navy might be a bit safe? What about a claret colour dress a bit drapey rather than fitted. Something with a bit of swing to to skirt I'm thinking. It would still look right for day but be a little bit edgier than say a shift dress? What type of shoes you planning as in colour?
