My mother took DD shopping for her graduation outfit and reminded DD to keep it all safe from our puppy which chews everything at the moment. About 5 min ago i heard DD start crying because she had left the shoes out and well puppy, shoes i think u can imagine. Mum is already on at us over this dog and you know what will hit the fan if she finds out what happened. Apart from asking mm where she bought the shoes from is there anyway of finding out and buying another pair? They are a black strappy small wedge heel. I have 4 weeks to cover up. Oh and yes the new pair will be coming out of DD's savings...this isnt the first time something precious has been lost wrecked etc because she hasnt taken care of it.

Is the brand printed in the sole of the shoe or is their a price tag with the shop name on the box. If it is a recog usable brand (eg Dianna ferrari, Sandler). You could check at Mathers, Myer, Williams. You could also try googling the brand and looki g up the stockings on their website. if it is not a recognisable brand you could check those cheap shoe shops (eg Payless).

Yes, post a pic but also do a google search on the brand and style name if it has one. You may find the shop or even be able to buy them online

Honestly? Just buy her another pair that you see fit - if your Mum says anything, just say she grew out of them. Has happened almost overnight in this household!
