Here we’ve got some images of the new Spring-Summer 2009 Womens Tod’s ad campaign, featuring actress Gwyneth Paltrow. Shot in London’s Mint Leaf Lounge by Mikael Jansson, Paltrow revealed how she streamlines her life, ‘As I’ve gotten older, I’ve realised what works on me. I tend not to follow trends as much as I did in the past. I get a little more classic as the years go by, only because it’s part of the simplification process’. The actress frequently appears on best dressed lists around the world and owned an array of Tod’s classics even before she began working with the brand.
And now for the bags featured in the campaign. First up, we got the Tod’s G-Bag (shown above), named after Gwyneth of course which retails for SGD1150.
Up next, the Tod’s Helmet Zip Bauletto Media (try saying it fast 10 times), an all-leather tote that’s versatile enough for both work and play. Retailing for SGD2270, check them both out at either Takashimaya Department Store or Paragon.

Bagaholic Boy, I need help! I just purchased this exact bag (see link http://www.bergdorfgoodman.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod39151113&parentId=cat288512&masterId=cat288510&index=13&cmCat=cat000000cat200648cat203100cat261003cat288510cat288512 ) from Tod’s at S$2,500 (but got a 10% discount at a sale last week) but am having second thoughts now as I’ve just seen a new bag on display today. I can’t find a picture of this bag so I can only best describe it about 12inches wide (base), about 13 inches high (including handles), a soft leather shoulder bag with a faux drawstring in front, magnetic closure, retails for S$2,010, maybe looks a little like the BV python bag on this page http://www.thebagforum.com/general-handbag-discussion/2268-designer-handbag-alert-winter-2008-a.html. But my memory is shoddy and I could be quite off on the details (except for the price). If you happen to drop in at the Paragon store, it’ll be on the first shelf to your left after you enter from the entrance inside the mall. There’s a black one and a cream one on display. I love the cream one! I’m in such a dilemma now as to whether I should make an exchange (and quickly! I’ve got until Tue) in terms of which bag is more fashion sustainable, classic factor, cost worthiness (size-wise, material), etc. Would appreciate your advice!
Hahaha…
G-Bag? Sounds vaguely naughty heh
