A friend was wearing a pair of gorgeous heels last night bit won't tell anyone where they are from! They are a red suede (possibly faux suede) high heel with a pointed filled in front and a wide (2-3 inch) ankle strap. They also have a gold metal trim decoration to the back of the heel and around the point. They sound naff when I describe but are actually gorgeous, she has the same pair in black too. Pretty sure they are high street but I can't find them! Any super sleuths up for the challenge?!

She sounds a bit of a pratt if she's that far up her own are that she won't say where she bought heresies from.

Probably a cheap shop. Try Primary, Matalan, Next or Florence & Fred.

Yep i was a bit taken aback at the not sharing bit too! But that aside i want to find these heels! Tried all of the above, thanks for the suggestions, they aren't on the new look, river island, zara or topshop websites either

Boohoo?

I just googled ankle strap court shoes and went onto the shop style site, they have hundreds of shoes. Perhaps not exactly the same, but better! I know they are not black or red but Dune have an amazing leopard pony skin and cobalt blue pair and the same combination as an open toed sandal but with an even thicker ankle strap and the latter pair are on sale. Beat her at her own game. I mean it would be weird if you had exactly the same shoes.

I can't link as using my phone.
Heelberry have a pair called Sophie.

TigsytheTiger · 26/04/2014 09:48

Thank you, they are similar to the Heelberry ones but with a wider ankle cuff and the metallic trim on the pointy toes. I know there are loads out there that are similar but I have fallen in love with this pair!

I wouldn't wear them out at the same time as her, she isn't someone I socialise with loads and there is a part of me which wants to track them down even more because she wouldn't say where she got them!!

Would she buy shoes from new look?

i saw some black ones as you describe in there... don't remember any red but that could just be my store as it's small and doesn't have a huge amount of stock.

TigsytheTiger · 26/04/2014 10:26

She would, but they aren't on the website if they are from there! I think they a couple of months old at the very most! Gah! I'm normally really good at this and this time it's an epic fail !

Primark have some that sound like that, with the gold trim.

rollonthesummer · 26/04/2014 10:59

That's really odd that she won't tell you!

Do you have form for copying other people's clothes?!

TigsytheTiger · 26/04/2014 11:03

No not at all! she just said loads of people have asked where they are from and everyone at her works thinks they are really expensive and she's not sharing her secret! It was all jokey! We all normally would quite openly share bargains and deals Confused

Link to a very reasonably priced shoe

Could this be them??

TigsytheTiger · 26/04/2014 11:22

YES!!! thank you so much!! and £12 too

TigsytheTiger · 26/04/2014 11:24

I was going to ask if they were from New Look, I have a black pair and I bought them last year so they've been around for a while now. Try Ebay and see if they're on there.

Dudess · 26/04/2014 14:03

Well researched, MNers!

Bet your friend bought them all, Tigsythetiger

£12!!! That's why she wouldn't say where they are from Wink

They are lovely btw and an absolute bargain.

TigsytheTiger · 26/04/2014 15:35

None on eBay! gutted, but I'll keep looking, they look even better in real life and the red is real vibrant poppy colour.

Dudess - I have reported you because you seem to be linking to your blog rather too often.

Dudess · 26/04/2014 23:09

I'm sorry for any rules I breached, I'm just figuring my way through networking. I'm used to people adding signatures on their posts in forums. I have kept my updates to the relevant threads up until this morning.
