Shoes to wear with navy cigarette pants

Having existed solely in dresses for the last decade, I've finally embraced trousers and purchased two lovely pairs of navy cigarette pants. My problem is shoes. I live in ankle boots in the winter and sandals in the summer, but neither really work with these trousers. I have heels that work, but my job involves quite a bit of walking so I'm looking for flats - casual but not too casual. Not trainers.

Any suggestions? I'm considering a tan slingback maybe? They need to be wide fit.

I am picturing you walking around in your pants (yes actual pants) figuring out which shoes match!

Over the knee boots obviously

@HiHoS Oooooh. Now THEY'RE nice. I was thinking brogues would be too autumnal but that colour really softens them. Thank you!

@VanessaShanessaJenkins Ha! I think it's just cigarette pants that are so-called. Though "pants" is used in some parts of Northern England I think!

@CountFosco Those are gorgeous. I wouldn't want white but the design is flawless.

Just checking, so would you sometimes wear black shoes with navy trousers? I always have this dilemma.

@tomyumsoup I wouldn't personally but I feel like that's my own hang-up rather than an actual rule these days!

I wouldn't, but only because I don't like the 2 colours next to each other.

They arrived and they're perfect! Have ordered a black pair too.

I’d wear a Gucci style loafer in snakeskin or a bright red patent. On a casual day then white Supergas.
