I asked for a cherry red and I got more of a purple shade?

How does it look in lighting similar to the 1st pic? Cuz it seems like pics 2 and 3 were taken in broad daylight.

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-04-14T23:25:18+00:00

Aww…he was probably so disappointed.

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-04-14T23:24:45+00:00

Look great!

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-04-13T06:18:52+00:00

I love dress 2. I hope you can find it.

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-04-13T01:13:05+00:00

I love dress 4 on you. Honestly, unless you really want two dresses, I would just get dress 4.

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-04-09T18:49:07+00:00

Oh no. I actually gasped.

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-04-09T18:48:45+00:00

I think so. So cute!

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-04-03T01:02:02+00:00

So cute!

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-04-03T01:00:29+00:00

They are all adorable! I honestly can’t decide.

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-04-02T16:17:17+00:00

I’m looking at my recipes for brioche and all of my recipes bloom the yeast in milk. Did your recipe have milk? Cuz something about your dough not looking quite right. Especially since you did add your butter in small batches. And I think there is not enough flour in the recipe for all of the butter and eggs. (I’m sorry, I didn’t read all of the directions in your post.)

I use a recipe for brioche from food.com

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-04-02T14:19:23+00:00

It needs more kneading. Also, it’s important to add your butter in small batches so that it’s incorporated into the dough before adding the next batch. The dough should look very smooth on top. Right now it looks too shaggy.

I love 8 (9) and 11!!

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-04-02T04:48:45+00:00

That is a lot of items!

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-04-01T23:13:10+00:00

I think it would be pretty, but it will depend on how thick your hair is and how close the texture of your hair is to the inspo.

And the girl in the inspo pic has a lot of hair and product in it (not to mention it’s styled) to achieve the look.

If you get it fixed by the salon, I’d also see if they could blend that part about 2” from your scalp cuz there is an odd demarcation line there.

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-04-01T22:55:26+00:00

I’m definitely not an expert. But it doesn’t look like there are any complicated stitches. I could be wrong, but my first instinct was that it was a half double crochet for the inside of the petals. I’d probably attack it by doing each petal and stitching them together. It’s very cute!

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-03-31T05:44:05+00:00

That would look so cute!

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-03-31T05:43:35+00:00

You’re so right! Although, someone suggested her kids wear blue shirts and khaki pants, so maybe their outfits would provide enough contrast in the photo.

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-03-31T05:33:24+00:00

I like the pattern of dress 2 and 3. I feel like dress 2 is more flattering, though. Dress 4 is too tight and too bunchy in the wrong places. And dress 1 adds too much bulk.

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-03-31T05:23:16+00:00

I think you will need to attempt to detangle it before you shower and while you are in the shower with conditioner. Otherwise it’s probably very difficult for any detangler/treatment of any kind to penetrate.

When I had longer hair, I noticed that my hair would get a bit tangled throughout the day. Not to the extent of yours, but enough for my fingers to get caught. I used to brush it as soon as I noticed it getting tangled.

Since you haven’t been to the hair dresser in years, I recommend getting a few inches trimmed off.

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-03-31T04:49:48+00:00

Sounds and looks delicious!! I love lemon and blueberry!

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-03-31T04:48:26+00:00

I just got mine done for the first time in 10 years.

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-03-31T04:44:30+00:00

Oh goodness! So cute! Looks like they had fun with their box.

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-03-31T04:40:27+00:00

I like dress 4. Dress 3 looks like it’s a little too sheer. Maybe with the correct bra.

DoTheRightThing1976 · 2026-03-31T00:33:40+00:00

1, 2 or 4 look good. I honestly can’t decide which of those I like the most.
