Giveaway: Mighty Summit Gift Bag

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:

Tieks by Gavrieli

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.

  1. I’m going to learn how to bake bread soon, which is the most intimidating item on my life list (not including, you know, becoming a parent. Which is definitely more intimidating than bread.)

    I want to write a book.

    I want to never get plastic surgery.

  3. One of the items on my Life List is to learn to play piano well again. I have the piano. I have the time. I also have a four year old daughter who would rather have me play with her than at the piano keyboard. So I don’t practice much. Yet. And I don’t regret it one bit. 🙂

  4. I want to go a month without wearing make-up. I don’t wear much to begin with, but I have a hard time being confident going completely au naturel. It’s time to overcome that!

  5. Things I can check off: take a photography class, go white water rafting, visit China, fly on a private plane.
    Still to do: travel to Vietnam, find time to get out and shoot at least twice a week, take a cooking class in every country I visit and go zip lining in Costa Rica.

  6. To buy really cute shoes. I lean toward comfort and I want to find the cute and the comfortable.

    A few months (years?) ago your life list inspired me to come up with 25 and they were nearly all travel related. We are going away tomorrow and I am anxious. I think I need 25 more.

  7. Number one is still finish my dissertation. I am hoping when I finally get to crossing it off the list that I feel a sense of lightness because right now it just makes me crabby :).

  8. I really want to swim with Whale Sharks in Western Australia, visit every continent in the world, see La Sagrada Familia when it’s finished and most importantly stop procrastinating!

    Hrm, mine are all travel related…

  10. I really really really want to live in France for 6 months. In a village, where I can actually speak French to French people, and buy French vegetables, then take them home and cook them in a French fashion.

  11. Visit Seoul, South Korea with my husband (who was born there and has never had the chance to return) with our now-20 month old son, Miles Jae. In my mind, this is on my life list timetable for when MJ is in high school.

  13. Own a pair of red cowboy boots.

    I’ve wanted a pair ever since I saw Footloose when I was 7. I finally have the disposable income to make it happen, I just have to find the perfect pair.

  14. I have so many things to check off but the one I’m working on right now is perfecting the art of baking chocolate chip cookies. May sound simple to some but I’m awful at it!

  15. To set foot on the northernmost, southernmost, easternmost, and westernmost points in the U.S. And to learn whether I should have capitalized N, S, E, and W in that sentence!

  16. There are so many things on my life list! The top one which I’m most looking forward to is owning a dog. I grew up with a menagerie of cats, horses, dogs, guinea pigs, and newts, and am excited to reach a point in my life where my lifestyle can support having a dog of my own (from San Francisco SPCA, of course).

  17. Paint a portrait that I am proud of.

    This first involves re-learning how to paint. I’ve started attending a weekly figure drawing class… baby steps.
