Can I wear black with this dress

Hi all, any advice appreciated. I'm an all day guest at a wedding in April and I have bought this dress, which I love. The base colour is dark blue and I was wondering if I could get away with black shoes and bag that I already have. Don't want to spend too much more money on shoes etc as funds are tight.
Is this dress too close to navy to wear black?

Yes of course!! Beautiful dress by the way. I think black will look great.

Love the dress. Any clue @hippoherostandinghere as to where it’s from ☺️

Thanks @AC2022 it's by AX Paris and I bought it in a local independent clothes store.

Really sorry but solid black accessories will drag this pretty print down. Use one of the brighter colours (the lemon?) on the shoe or the bag somehow. I have bought ribbon in the past and tied it around the instep and up onto the front of the foot before. Ditto something similar on bag.

It could look fresh and slightly frivolous and why not? It’s a Spring Wedding 💐
