Keep it simple.
If you're going for a dark color, you want something slim and long otherwise they will look too clumpy with a light suit. Maybe something like;

If you go for a lighter colour, avoid anything too light and stick with something that isn't too shiney/patent leather.

The other option would be feature shoes - a BRIGHT colour and then find a matching tie with white shirt or matching shirt with black tie.

I'd give more examples but still at work. Hope it helps.

This is the best option so far

Please, though, whatever you choose, keep two things in mind:

1. Don't buy anything too trendy, a suit is a classic look and while it can be modern it should be treated with respect.
2. Never, ever, EVER where shoes with squares toes.

I'm after a quite vintage look
and am generally not overly keen on most smart shoes that most people wear. I wear some brown suede boots to work, which are not smart in the least. I've got some DM Chelsea style boots in shiny black, but they are quite school shoeish.

Yeah i have a pair of matt brown shoes taht I love, but I can't find a way to "polish" them matt
They are a bit scuffed and need cleaning up.

that's a bugger
my two pairs of good boots don't really require cleaning as one pair is worn tan leather anyway, and the other needs to be scruffy because they look like boots for crushing skulls
