ShortyLOVE – Practical Style
There’s no dearth of appreciation here at Beauty News NYC for ShortyLOVE’s wide array of bags, which range from fanny packs, cross-body travel bags and computer totes to broader parents-wielding-diapers-and-gear bags and gym bags. ShortyLOVE’s athleisure line of handbags (created by Sloane Gibney Grossberg) was designed to be softer, smarter, and more organized.
The brand offers an expanding collection of 7 silhouettes in 6 colorways for active, busy women who don’t want to sacrifice style for practical solutions. These bags are softer, sleeker, more lightweight, and wearable all day, season after season. They’re also crafted with a plush, water-resistant exterior and with straps that don’t dig, slide, or slip. These durable and wipeable bags are ideal for parents whose children have sticky peanut butter fingers, and can be worn multiple ways, ranging from hands-free to carry. They also have removable and adjustable straps. The best part is that ShortyLOVE bags are organized with pockets galore, genius storage compartments, zippers to hold essentials in check, water bottle pockets, and a padded laptop case in some styles. Interiors are even light to simplify hunting for that elusive item while baby wails.
ShortyLOVE is fully woman-owned and operated – just Sloane and a few trusted contractors.
