With colors like these, you'll never have to worry which suitcase is yours at baggage claim again.

Cult-favorite suitcase brand Away is partnering with another cult-favorite, the New York City bakery Flour Shop, on a new collection of popular suitcases and carry-ons that just dropped this week. You've seen travelers towing Away bags pretty much every time you go to the airport and, trust us, you're about to start seeing a lot more of them — and in kaleidoscopic color.

The travel brand debuted the colorful suitcases on Tuesday, and they're selling out fast. The limited-edition collection comes in eight vibrant colors — pretty much every hue in the rainbow — available in four sizes. This includes The Carry-On, The Bigger Carry-On, The Medium and The Large suitcases, but not the Daily Carry-On With Pocket we reported about earlier this summer. Sorry, business travelers.

We went to Away's New York City storefront to scope them out for ourselves, and we were told there were only "limited quantities left." Yes, after only two days on shelves, Away had only the blue cobalt, lime green and hot pink suitcases left in stock.

The bags are a testament to the bakery's love of bright colors, and retail between $225 and $295 — the same range of prices their carry-ons and suitcases currently cost. If you want to order one, we'd recommend doing so ASAP through their online store. Just keep in mind that the limited-edition Carry-On and Bigger Carry-On are only available without a battery.

That's not all, though.

Travelers can also get a "branded luggage tag featuring an exclusive Flour Shop design," according to Cosmopolitan, and purchase bright, zippered packing cubes in both warm and cool tones; those will run you $45 for a set of four.

Now, if only one of those cakes were included in the collaboration, too.
