It is believed she may be wearing a full length black leather coat, a multi-coloured striped beanie hat, red wool fingerless gloves and carrying a brown handbag with yellow giraffes on.
A picture has been issued by police to help with the search, and although old it is the most recent photograph available at this time. The public are advised she still looks very similar except for her hair now being grey.
