What to wear with navy circle skirt that comes about two inches below knees...navy tights and shoes? Or is that too matchy matchy with navy? Should I match my top (like grey sweater, grey tights...) or go with black tights and shoes? Are there rules? Help the clueless! And please no response like wear what you like, if I wanted to do that I wouldn't have asked...

Navy tights but try to bring color in with your shoes either matching with top or coordinating with the whole look.

Gray, red, turquoise, mustard (or a print with combination of coordinating colors)... depending on what you're wearing the navy skirt with.

I don't remember the last time I saw a women wearing navy tights. I'd wear black tights and any color shoes. Burgundy might look nice.

Like navy in the top, and then black tights and black shoes?

So, for example, I have a lavender sweater with a gold and navy design - I should wear that, a navy skirt, and black tights and shoes?

Neither do I, which is why I'm asking...but if my top has no black in it, I just feel like is it weird to wear black tights with navy and other colors?

Totally.
I haven't seen navy tights in years. Could be I'm not in touch with fashion lol but I only wear black tights. Used to wear grey but stopped that also.

Don't wear black. Wear heather tights if you want with navy shoes.

Winter:
Black tights with everything (opaque for Both Shabbos and weekday).

Summer:
Nude stockings with everything, Shabbos and weekday.

Signed, someone who doesn’t always follow the rules but knows what they are. Smile

Depends on the shirt, but I would 9/10 recommend black tights. Navy tights aren't in anymore, and grey is making its way out.

I think for girls under 14 the rules are a bit different....they can wear grey and navy, etc...

I would do sheer/nude hose and nude or colored shoes/boots.
Typically I don't do a navy skirt because I don't like it with black tights unless I am wearing a black top or a navy top.
I have seen navy tights, and I would wear that (then with burgundy shoes) but they are hard to find. I feel like matching the color elongates the leg which is always flattering.

I am considered well, but not overly high end / impeccably dresses, but I am old so I don't know that my opinion counts.
