The purple one and the white blouse! Love your little fashion shows! I always need to get a size larger for my grandma arms! I always say my Grandmother is always with me! Lol
Beige with blouse under was nice
Voting for the maroon...
Definitely the last one!
I would wear any, except the one with the clip. I prefer my tops a little longer as I carry my weight in the mid section.
I love v necks they are very flattering
I agree with the last one. The color looks really good with your complexion.
You always look nice.
💯 the last one! The color and fit are so much better. Roll the sleeves back to show your wrists and I think you will like the sleeves better. Good luck!
You are looking pretty good. I liked them all.
Go for set in sleeves not drop shoulders or raglan sleeves. Marion
Last one, can you take that clip off or put it a bit lower? Love the fit and color.
first green sweater
Purple!!!!
Very cute.. I like how the last one cinches at your waste! Gives you definition! You look great Dr. Lori!! <3

Busy day—about high finance, grey blending, baby diapers, and tire pressure. Watch! ... See MoreSee Less
You are looking so good and so happy!! Hugs & Love!! 🥰❤️🥰
Getting it done!
LOVE the hair---was busy too shopping---packing and sending out ebay stuff---visiting 8 month old granddaughter and preparing beef stew for dinner...GMAN
Definitely get the tire checked if it continues to lose air! If it was just low it could be because of temperature changes.
You go girl! 💪🏻🛞💪🏻 But just case… go by the tire shop and have it checked 😉
Congrats on the tire Dr Lori. Do you know why it lost air?
I think those diaper raffles are just a way to get extra gifts.
Please go to a tire place and get it checked out. I carry a fix-it-flat in the car.
Lol…😊love your videos and I’m watching those gray blending videos too going to do it! Have a great busy day!
You go Dr. Lori!
21 Century strong woman 👏👏😎
Sounds like a fun busy day You are one happy lady always giving to others
I’m letting my hair grow out, been wearing it bald for decades. Lori do you like bald men ? Just asking for everyone who is afraid.
Make sure you have tire checked. Mine kept leaking found out had a nail in it.
Dr Lori! Your gray hair looks silver or platinum to me! I am 74 yr old and many of my high school classmates at our last reunion let their hair go platinum. Those "girls" looked awesome! Is there some way you try on platinum??
Ask quick as you make money, it goes right back out. Always something. Have a great day!
Learning new skills on top of all you do. You’re awesome 😎
Impressed. Wtg, on your multitasking.

Estate sale find: Abercrombie painting sells for $1.3M.
Bargains everywhere! I appraised a painting by this artist during a video call with one of you thrifters who found it at an estate sale too. Having an estate sale? Need my help! ... See MoreSee Less
My question is why would someone pay that much for that? Maybe it's valuable. Is it worth more than that? I don't see where it could be that valuable, but maybe it's very rare by a very well-known artist? I've never heard of Abercrombie be except the store
A big thank to you, 😁❤️for helping others find their Pot of Gold @ the end of a Rainbow. Dr. Lori.
Fantastic
Wish I found it.

Love army green, light brown and purple,but they really all look great Dr Lori.
