Is there a magic web tool so i could find the jacket I saw today on a woman?

Do call me copy cat or whatever - i am useless to see clothes on hangers, and hate shopping for this reason.
I need a jacket ( for a year now I am on a look out) and saw on on a woman in town. It looks the job, and brand new.
I spent 3 hours now googling "fitted tweed jacket olive/pink lines, neither too horsey, no too formal" gives me no result. I have chacked all online shops I know who would do something like it - Rowlands, country casuals etc
Should i just comfort myself she bought it ages ago and just started to wear now?

(This site has a few tweeds!)

I was going to suggest Ness too.

There is an app called style eyes I think which is like a shazam for clothes.
I know it's not particularly helpful to you now and you would have to have taken a sneaky photo to use it!
That said I have never tried the app myself, but it does sound useful if it works!

I realise now this isn't a very helpful post!, sorry OP

Boden did have a green and pink one in a previous season.

That Boden one was the initial one I'd thought of lucked but couldn't find! Well done. It's on eBay OP, if it's the right one :)

selfdescriptive name of the site Embrace for stylish life (before taking the credit card out I gather) Lucked
I checked Boden earlier, that was too green, too pink and not tweed Smile

Now I am thinking what that woman call me if she noticed me running after her and trying to get a picture?
Or shoud I have just cut the chase and be direct - "I love you style, where's your jacket from, lov?"
How far do you think she would have sent me?

All in all it was a joyful experience to see all those shops I have never heard of - and the price-tags as well.
Thank you mums, I tend to accept the jacket was last season Boden, (thank you Lucked) and I can't have it. Oh well, I'll live...
