Apropos for President’s Day! Today’s video caller had me appraise this engraving of Pres. Abe Lincoln and family.
Video call appraisals can be booked through my website. I review photos on my website too.
Well, how much? Don’t leave us hanging.
Hi here I'd a painting from a family friend who posed for Louise Nevelson in Art School
You get to see so many amazing things Dr.Lori! I'm a little jealous. 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃
Sorry here is Nevelson Dr Lori
Wild change, right. #hair
Bangs yes grey no
Like it very much you look younger! Like the bangs and gray……
Its a softer look. You could also try parting your to the side with a longer bang.
Makes you look younger
Yes! I don't know how but it actually makes you look younger. Somehow with your skin tone it brightens up your whole face. It really is very complimentary overall.
I think it makes you look younger
love the cut too, sorry, ur too young for grey!! my mom told me years ago, "as long as miss clairol's around, i'll never go grey"....🤣🤣🤣words i live by!! 😜
You will set yourself free! And it’s called silver😘
Add a splash of purple!
You look beautiful in gray hair and bangs. I let mine go naturally years ago and never looked back. Keep it!
For some reason you look way much younger.
The bangs. 👍🏼
Cute 🤩... Think 'Anne Bancroft' grey! (older actress--too far back?🤔...sorry, TG for google 😉). She had the most stunning grey transformation of anyone I've ever seen with dark hair, eyes.
Bangs lol hide frown lines
I like the color. Not sure about bangs but it might be how straight/severe they appear. I think softer or even a little longer bangs would be better. As someone who has had bangs on and off for years, they can drive you crazy if they get in your eyes. I've got really fine/thin hair so not many options for holding them back. Your hair is very different so might not be an issue.
Yes ! Better than dying !
So pretty ❤️
You look fantastic with grey hair! You look so young! I went natural in 2020. No regrets.
Looks awesome!
So beautiful 😍
Love the hair
Love it! Looks fantastic!
Looks nice
Looks great 👍🏻
I love it. So natural looking and money saved.
Classic style penny loafers updated. I wore a pair like this in my youth. Fun, reasonably priced, and comfy. #shoes
Actually they are comfortable on cobblestone streets in Europe too!
I have a pair. Most comfortable shoes ever.
Me too...we actually put pennies in them!!
I have some like those. They are comfortable not as comfy as my asics but good Really have to watch yourself in ice and snow in those they're slick as snot.
Love penny loafers. Classic. I may have to order me some. When I was in school it was saddle shoes as well. I loved them. Although I was a tom boy and mine were constantly dirty.
I wore Wallabees, quite comfortable. 70's
Where’s the penny?🤔
They look nice, but my all time favorite shoe were my saddle shoes! I love to get them to wear with jeans, but too old!
DO YOU REMEMBER SHOES THAT THEY CALLED WEEJUNS?
Are you suprised you laughed when watching my new YouTube video at the Prairie Winds Event Center in Orange City, Iowa?
@prairiewindseventcenter Security National Bank @securitynationalbank

Not surprised at all. You are so funny and so good.
