At Born Forward, our mission is to create products and experiences that encourage individuality, joy, confidence, and forward movement.
Through Mel’s Mélange, we bring that mission to life with thoughtfully created accessories, gifts, and statement pieces designed to add personality, humor, and intention to everyday moments.
We believe where you’ve been is part of your story—but it doesn’t have to define where you’re going.
A little self-control with a backup reminder. 😹
The I’d Rather Pray Than Punch Statement Gift pairs a bold statement pouch with a coordinating pocket mirror for a gift that’s funny, useful and very clear about the energy.

Paired with a pocket mirror featuring:
“You’re too cute for jail.”
Use the pouch for makeup, everyday essentials, small personal items or whatever you need to keep together—and keep the mirror close for those moments when you need a quick check and an even quicker reminder. 😹
