Black is beautiful!

You can wear whatever you want. There's no law against wearing navy stripes and brown shoes.

Rules of fashion, however, tend to consider all shades of blue as incompatible with any hues of brown, so if you want to be mainstream, it's probably better to go for the black shoes.

Good taste would require you to wear black shoes especially for semiformal occasions. On those occasions brown is never worn.

You can certainly wear brown shoes with navy pinstripe.  If it makes you feel better, add something else brown to the outfit and it'll be fine.  One of the things I've learned from watching too much "What Not to Wear" on TLC is that shoes do not have to be the same color as the pants/skirt you have on.

Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given then to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is nothing.

I'd try to stay away from putting navy and brown together... they make sort of a nasty combination.  Stick to black if you can.  It looks a lot better and you can wear a black belt to match the black shoes... looks nice.

A Classic - Black shoes with a Navy Suit will never go out of style.  On the other hand you can also wear a brown belt and brown shoes.

If you are wearing indie (retro) pinstripe then go for it. Match it up with a dark brown belt, scarf or shirt and it will be fine.

The general rule though, is to go dark shoes with dark colors, so if the brown is more a fawn or a camel, then ditch it for black.

According to the fashion trends of www.nirvanastyle.com you should wear black with Navy. Unless you have other co-ordinates that are brown. Many times one can make a stunning outfit and look different if you wear the scarf, jewlery, purse and shoes matching of a color tone that can be picked up from the suite.
