I think anything with Navy Blue will work.

Navy Blue and Yellow
Navy Blue and Orange
Navy Blue and Green

Color theory is a big part of graphic design. I have yet to get very good at picking out good combinations (one of my weak points as a designer-in-training, I think). Here are some good references about palletes and color theory on the web:

(Especially the bottom part about picking a pallete from a picture)
