IDLE says that the double quotations marks at the end of each print statement are an invalid syntax. What's wrong?

I have the code below so far to make an outfit checker and IDLE says that the double quotations marks at the end of each print statement are an invalid syntax. I don't know how it's wrong. Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance!

#Outfit Checker

cher_dress_color = 'pink'
cher_shoe_color = 'white'
cher_has_earrings = True
dionne_dress_color = 'purple'
dionne_shoe_color = 'pink'
dionne_has_earrings = True

#Cher and Dionne have different dress colors

print(f "Both girls have different dress colors? {cher_dress_color != 'purple' and dionne_dress_color != 'pink'}")

#Cher and Dionne are both wearing earrings

print(f "Both girls are wearing earrings? {cher_has_earrings == True and dionne_has_earrings == True}")

#At least one person is wearing pink

print(f "At least one person is wearing pink? {cher_dress_color =='pink' or dionne_dress_color =='pink'}")

#No one is wearing green

print(f "No one is wearing green? {cher_dress_color != 'green' or dionne_dress_color != 'green'}")

#Cher and Dionne have the same shoe color

print(f "Both girls have the same shoe colors? {cher_shoe_color == 'pink' or dionne_shoe_color == 'pink') or (cher_shoe_color == 'white' or dionne_shoe_color == 'white')}")

Mayur's answer explains the problem and how to fix it, but actually you don't even need f-strings here, plus you can simplify the logic.

In the last line, I think you meant to use (and) or (and) instead of (or) or (or).

print("Both girls have different dress colors?", cher_dress_color != dionne_dress_color)
print("Both girls are wearing earrings?", cher_has_earrings and dionne_has_earrings)
dress_colors = [cher_dress_color, dionne_dress_color]
print("At least one person is wearing pink?", 'pink' in dress_colors)
print("No one is wearing green?", 'green' not in dress_colors)
print("Both girls have the same shoe colors?", cher_shoe_color == dionne_shoe_color)

Output:

Both girls have different dress colors? True
Both girls are wearing earrings? True
At least one person is wearing pink? True
No one is wearing green? True
Both girls have the same shoe colors? False

You have added extra space between f and your string but it should be like this

print(f"Both girls have different dress colors? {cher_dress_color != 'purple' and dionne_dress_color != 'pink'}")

not like this

print(f "Both girls have different dress colors? {cher_dress_color != 'purple' and dionne_dress_color != 'pink'}")

and also you forget to add parenthesis in the last print statement print(f"Both girls have the same shoe colors? {(or)or(or)}

here is final fixed code

cher_dress_color = 'pink'
cher_shoe_color = 'white'
cher_has_earrings = True
dionne_dress_color = 'purple'
dionne_shoe_color = 'pink'
dionne_has_earrings = True

#Cher and Dionne have different dress colors

print(f"Both girls have different dress colors? {cher_dress_color != 'purple' and dionne_dress_color != 'pink'}")

#Cher and Dionne are both wearing earrings

print(f"Both girls are wearing earrings? {cher_has_earrings == True and dionne_has_earrings == True}")

#At least one person is wearing pink

print(f"At least one person is wearing pink? {cher_dress_color =='pink' or dionne_dress_color =='pink'}")

#No one is wearing green

print(f"No one is wearing green? {cher_dress_color != 'green' or dionne_dress_color != 'green'}")

#Cher and Dionne have the same shoe color

print(f"Both girls have the same shoe colors? {(cher_shoe_color == 'pink' or dionne_shoe_color == 'pink') or (cher_shoe_color == 'white' or dionne_shoe_color == 'white')}")

output

Both girls have different dress colors? True
Both girls are wearing earrings? True
At least one person is wearing pink? True
No one is wearing green? True
Both girls have the same shoe colors? True
