Inspiration: Stockholm Street Style via Bazaar

Navy and black: the ultimate no-no in some fashion books. In my world though, navy and black can do no wrong and the two make quite the chic pairing. This the the navy dress I bought recently and while I originally envisioned it with something preppy like a plaid blazer, cognac riding boots or nude pumps, this slightly more rock-n-roll take thanks to my inspiration photo gives me another way to wear it. Would you ever wear navy and black together?
