Created with weekend getaways and travel adventures in mind, The Overnighter features multiple interior storage pockets, a laminated cotton liner, an exterior zip pocket, and an adjustable strap for maximum portability.  “We are really excited to unveil our new bags for fall!” says Glittersweet founder Laura Silverstein, “The bright colors and durability make them a great pick forweekend getaways in the Northwest!”

The limited edition bags will be available in two colorways, including a blue and green combination designed with Seattle sports fans in mind.  The new bag joins six additional styles that make up the Glittersweet Seattle Colors collection, which has been popular among Sounders, Mariners and Seahawks fans.
