Harvey Nichols is known for getting creative with ad campaigns, so we're not surprised that they put mid-size dogs in totes. We're ecstatic. Meet Spud in the yellow 3.1 Phillip Lim handbag, Dozer in the blue Sophie Hulme tote, Pepper (not pictured), the stars of "The New Breed" bag campaign. If ads are supposed to make the viewer want to be whatever is pictured, then thumbs up to Harve. We are super jealous of those models casually toting 50lb of pure adorable.
