high five for friday!

{You can follow me on Instagram as TheValorieClark.} 

This week I'm linking up with Lauren from My Grey Desk for High Five for Friday. Join in! :)

My favorite things from the past week: 

 

1. Launching this! Seriously, I'm outrageously excited.

 

2. I spent Tuesday night puppy sitting and I have literally never been so happy to be around puppies again. 

I looove puppies. 

3. These awesome finds at the Kate Spade outlet on Monday. 

I've worn those earrings every single day this week and I'll probably wear them again today. 

Anyone want to invite me on a weekend trip so I can use my new weekender? :)

4. Bringing an entire pot of coffee out to the backyard where I was writing on Wednesday night. It was worth it.

5. Watching my favorite movie with one of my good friends from 1200 miles away. I love technology. :)

Here we go, the Simply, Valorie weekly round up. This week was EXCITINGBUSYOMFG so there's a lot. The one YOU probably care about most is the GIVEAWAY. Just sayin'. ;)

Things You Missed Here on Simply, Valorie: 

• all the healthy things! this is a commitment.

Things I Did Everywhere Else On the Internet:

Things I Didn't Come Up With but LOVE:

• These ballet flats from TOMS. Anyone feel like sending me a gift? ;)
• The Texas Humor tumblr. I know I live in DC now, but I will always be a Texas girl.
