The way we see it this is the perfect decoy for hiding an engagement ring say, or just an amazing gift from someone who REALLY loves you. And if you can't drop a mega hint on Valentines day then when can you? Apart form Christmas. or birthdays. There is actually no occasion you can't lust over an Olympia Le-Tan minaudière to honour Lancôme’s high-colour duo for. The iconic clutch has six shades of Rouge In Love and Vernis In love, plus plenty of space left over for ring hiding. Just sayin...
