I never knew these were called minaudières. They were always just boxy-clutch-thingies to me. I must remember to call them by their actual name now. Sounds so posh and la-di-dah, doesn’t it? 😉
I didn’t know these were called minaudière either lol. But they are all very pretty!
I ALMOST bought the alexander mcqueen one. The one I wanted was a knuckle-duster one. AWESOMELY-COOL! 😛 Eh you know when would the Dior one hit our shores? Melikeys very much 😛
