When we were pulling together gifts for the Mighty Summit, we set a few aside to give away. There will be Summit giveaways on Mighty Girl all this week, but this first one is a doozy. Here’s what’s up for grabs today:
I bought a pair of these perfect ultimate travel shoes a while back, and they’re one of my new favorite things. Tieks fold in half so you can stuff them in your purse, but the quality is amazing. They come in all sorts of candy colors and metallics — plus they pack flat and slip off easily when you’re heading through airport security. The winner gets to choose any pair for $135 and under. I recommend orange.
Photojojo’s Tokyo Dreamer Strap
I can’t believe how long it took me to replace my ugly, logoed camera strap. Photojojo’s Tokyo Dreamer strap really dresses up your camera, and even has a little pocket for extra memory cards or a lens cloth.
Lola Epiphanie Camera Bag by Maile Wilson
Maile was an attendee at this year’s Summit, and she brought along her bright Epiphanie camera bags. I use mine as my everyday purse and have finally stopped busting expensive lenses and gadgets by wrapping them in hand towels and shoving them into an un-padded purse. Now I can have my SLR, my flip, and my phone(s) with me without anything banging together and cracking or getting scratched by my keys.
And that’s it for today. Pretty good, huh? To enter to win, please leave a comment about something on your Life List.
Now for the fine print: Please only leave one comment, because it’s the nice thing to do, and also because multiple entries will be disqualified. I’ll use random.org to select the winner, and I’ll announce who won at the top of this post and in a separate post next Tuesday.

One of the goals on my life list that I’m focused on right now is to learn to bake my own bread. It’s a small one, but I need something that I can accomplish now. I’ll hopefully get to Easter Island *someday*, but for now I’d like to be grubbing on some tasty homemade bread.

I can not believe the number of top quality content which exist on this specific site. Your website is very attractive and brings the reader instantly in, the content tend to be good quality and are quite professionally written. I’ve witnessed too many of these web sites where it looks like they pay an 7 year old to perform the writing – Not this place. Your site is definitely the best that i have looked at in a longer while.

Juggle at my child’s 5th birthday.
I’m 24, unmarried, no kids, but when I worked in a bar this man said I must learn how to juggle so that I could be the coolest mother at my kid’s birthday party. He took time out to teach me in the bar, so I think if he had enough time and interest in teaching me how to juggle I should definitely dress up and play the clown at my future child’s party.
