How to find an item of clothing you've seen on a passer by!

I was queuing at a till in John Lewis this evening and I saw a beautifully dressed woman walk past wearing a lovely pair of sandals. I daresay everything she was wearing cost a lot of money, she looked very put together.

They were navy blue, block heel, ankle strap with a little platform and thin gold edging around the sole.

Now I've found things using pictures before, but I don't have a picture! Any ideas? I love these shoes Sad

It's not easy, your best chance is snapping a picture or bazening it out and asking.
I saw a lady in a lovely green jacket today, no hope of tracking it down. Sad

Can you google the description? E.g. Block heel blue shoe
You'll go down a few rabbit holes but you'll get there in the end

@Olive122 those are the exact shoes!

How did you find them? I've been googling blue sandals for most of the evening Grin

olive where you the woman in JL?

Olive122 · 15/09/2018 08:15

Really?!

I just googled dark blue block heel sandals with gold trim and these were the only ones that had the platform that you described.

Glad I could help 😃

Olive122 · 15/09/2018 08:23
