They may say it is to busy for the camera...so maybe take a more camera friendly option just in case
The colors are pretty and bright!
Love the colors.
I think it’s “AIR-MAY”
Beautiful
Love, love, love!
The Hermes scarf looks like it complements your RL sweater perfectly!
Yessss! Yesss!
Oh yes 🤩🤩🤩
Love it
What do you mean “there’s a whole thing?” Lol. Just checking
I love it! Beautiful colors
Love it!
Very nice! ♥️
You know scarves are my thing. I wear one just about every day. I have a nice collection of Hermes plus vintage Tiffany & Co, YSL, LV, Fendi, Gucci, and Ferragamo. I don’t wear the really important ones when it is hot out. I use the fakes for that. 😆
Scarfs are a timeless accessory!
It's all in how you look at it!
It's beautiful 😍
Nice!!!!
Dr. Lori, the scarf totally works with the cashmere sweater.

AI missed again. I asked AI to make me a Barbie doll based on the photo of me at sea (wait to see the original photo). Doesn’t look like me at all! Who’s she? #shopping #travel #ai #barbie ... See MoreSee Less
I definitely see the resemblance🥰
She looks more like Katie Holmes 😂
Same hair and a smile…claim it!
You have been Barbie-fied. Would be interesting to do different dolls; American Girl, Madame Alexander, Cabbage Patch, Suzy Sad Eyes, Mrs. Beasley.....
Yes, and then she woke up!
AI girl with a big head! You don't have a big head!
She needs white gloves and a loop
Well it got your cuteness
I did one with different settings and it wasn't me either. Lol
Who dat? 🤣
We need to see you as a cabbage patch
Lol... Well, it is AI.
Who cares your adorable either way !!!!
It’s perfect a younger you❤️
Looks nothing like you
Cute, though!
I love it!!! That is so cool!!!
It totally works!
💪🇺🇸🌎
Way off!
AI is so overhyped.
AI is stupid! Not intelligent 🤦🏻♀️
That's the future you after more weight loss.

Even my plushie lost weight. Is the chubby one cuter? ... See MoreSee Less
Not cuter, but somehow in the new one your eyes got huge! 👀
Dogs like bones men like curves.
The fluffier one!!! We don’t say chubby!!! lol. 😂 🤣🤣
Better makeup too...
Remember that beauty is not the outward appearance! It comes from the heart! Got sees what is within!
You look great either way…. At the same time if you’re vision yourself in a different way go with the way you envision.😊 My opinion, go for the newer version
I like the second one! You have big eyes, the netter to see you with my dear! Just like little red riding hood 😍
Thinner one is nicer.
I don't know about those animals eyes... on another note, did you see the Swatch watch craze the other day? Thought about you and your collection.
The healthy one.
They are both cute! The first one looks more like you in the face and hair.
They’re both cute! Very cool!
Both Dr. Lori's are beautiful....onward and forward always
You're both adorable
That’s pretty cute.
Both are very cute!
Sooooooo cute 🥰
Love it Love it and you! 😂👊🏻❤️
They both are cute
That’s so cute! ❤️. Both are perfect. They remind you of the wonderful journey you are on and reminds all of us what we could accomplish. Keep doing it Dr. Lori!
These are so cute !! You look great lady !
Both are darling!!
So cute!!
This is so cute!!!
They are both beautiful, just like your natural self.

You a fabulous women, my dream is to meet you someday

Everyone will be experiencing it. It happens with within yourself.
Never wanted children. Woke this morning at 3 am with a dream. A dream that someone wanted me and my husband to adopt him child because she couldn't do it. I'm in tears because we didn't do it earlier on life. Did something change? I don't know but I've never wanted this. The tears won't stop. Is this a midlife crisis?
Dr Lori Dr Lori!! Ashley Reese and I have your cosmic Shift! My entire life just changed 3 months ago.. You won’t believe it! But let me tell you anyway! 😂 My chiropractor showed me this Stem Cell technology.. Man! My pain is mostly gone systemically.. My production went up over 100% since my heart surgery.. I’m sleeping finally and dreaming.. we know you’re dealing with some things obviously and would love to talk.. if you even see this.. lol. Reach out k. Big Hugz. AJNAshley
May you have a wonderful holiday and don't forget to update us on "your" shift.😁
I think you should refer to those glasses as your Sally Jesse Raphael’s.
I am a Capricorn Jan 15. Lord knows I need a cosmic shift in the right direction. Trying to get my house closing to take place this Friday may 29 🙏🙏🤞🤞
Pluto discovered by Tom from Streator Illinois.
December 1965 Capricorn. What does this mean,?
Not so much I'm a Scorpio 😀😃
My hubby is a Capricorn who is currently suffering from severe back pain and he needs some definite shifting in his condition! Tylenol, Tylenol Cream, Gabapentin! He’s had prior back surgery in 2018 and a ViaDisc procedure to replace vertebra material that lasts anywhere from 5 to 10 years and it’s been about 7 years. His pain mgmt gave him options since the epidurals are not as effective as they were and he’s currently undergoing acupuncture for the first time. He’s 86 and I’m hoping it’s the ViaDisc that needs to be redone as it’s done by injection of material into the vertebra. ❤️🥰❤️
I'm a Capricorn and I worked seven straight days this week and I'm off tomorrow. I hope it's my good day
I am a Capricorn! We'll see!
I'm a Capricorn Jan.18th. I'd love to see this shift. I'm going to read.
Not so much at this time.
Dr. Lori, Sure...Right after you provide them a credit card number. Most true clairvoyants do not charge people money.
We are in the 5th dimension and the shift has already started 🤗 That is why everything about the planet is shifting! Everything is changing to a new order 🥰
I'm a Capricorn. I could use a cosmic shift.
I am a Virgo, a psychic medium told me I need to know my rising sign which is the exact time of day you were born and where. Apparently, your rising sign is important to know, LOL.
I am a twin, so I am very skeptical about astrology. Theoretically, my twin and I should experience the same things all the time and have the same personality traits, but it isn't so.

I appraise antiques (anything more than 100 years old) so this 110 year old snapping turtle was deemed priceless. Why this pic today? It’s world turtle day! #turtle #value ... See MoreSee Less
That snapping turtle could bite your arm off!
Dr. Lori, though it is a sweet little turtle. You look as though it is giving you the 'heebie-jeebies'.
I have to be honest that wasn't the first thing I thought of when I saw this photo. 😬
I have a turtle spitoon.
Ouch
Here's a video I took of a turtle digging a nest to lay eggs in a few days ago! www.facebook.com/share/r/1cBvcYdoTk/
What’s this one worth that just knocked on the patio door?
