before you download:

don’t feel like you gotta follow the story in the little description i wrote. you can do whatever you want with these sims, including changing names & traits. you can modify them to fit your aesthetic & dress them however you want but please: don’t change skintones & features.

RECOMMENDED CC: skin / eyes / lashes / makeup overhaul

1 / RUBY BEHR for @simsimeree

"the forgotten 3rd behr sister“

i based her off my makeovers of yuki & candy, so shes way cuter than her vanilla eaxis sisters. i imagined her living in san myshuno or oasis springs just because she thought the windenburg art scene was too pretentious. 

CC: eyebags / nose ring

2 / AYA EL KHOURI for @simscc4lifeccfinds

“green eyes, pouty lips, blonde or brown hair”

i picture her having like 3 giant dogs. she’d own a vegan bakery & run a minimalist tumblr with like 25k followers. everything she does is incomprehensibly perfect?? her eyebrows are never uneven. 

CC: hair / dress  / brows / lips / blush / shadow

3 / ALEXI LOMANATI for @ibrattydon & @indiana-sims

"a male sim with black hair and blue eyes... that just seems like bad news”

when y/n first meets alexi she KNOWS he’s bad news. he’s rude & condescending... plus he has PIERCINGS & A FACIAL SCAR! but is there something else underneath his rugged & abrasive exterior? continue reading on fanfiction.net! 

CC: hair / facial hair / nosemask / freckles / scar / eyebags / eyebags 2 / jeans

4 / FRANCESCA ZHOU for @savsims

“a stay at home mom with lots of children”

you know her kids are the best dressed out of the entire kindergarten class. her wife is deployed so she runs a popular etsy, or whatever the sim equivalent of etsy is, making cute pins from home. she’s the only PTA mom who can pull off yellow eyeshadow.

CC: hair / brows / nosemask / nosemask 2 / eyebags / top / tied shirt / blush 

5 / NYIMA ROSE for @crenannahsimcc

"short blonde hair, blue eyes, freckles...and minimal makeup?"

her older sisters are alpha delta chi alumni but she just wants to nail her kick flip & listen to some early aughts grunge. her birth name was probably brittah-nee or mackeighlah or smth but she forces everyone to call her nyima bc its cooler.

first here are some tutorials purely for the aesthetic of your mods folder  →how to change folder icons   /   how to change file icons  

i get my icons from l’univers sims because they’re usually up to date with all the packs. the website is in french but it’s easy enough to navigate.  

i also rename every .package file to look like this →CREATORNAME FileName.package

inside #MINE MCCC & MODS its a free-for-all of loose files. i don’t do too much when it comes to organizing these because there aren’t many files to begin with. the TEST folder is a godsend and i recommend having one just to make sorting new files easier.

BUILD BUY & CAS look like this. i like having a #DEFAULTS folder so if you want to swap out one replacement for another it won’t take 25 years to locate the file you need. 

i also keep subfolders to the absolute minimum without getting things too muddied. (and tbh i could probably reduce my folders more if i wanted) 

child & toddler items are mixed in with the adults only because i don’t have THAT much cc for them. if i need to, i differentiate some files by adding a suffix 

i’ve been remaking my POSES folder & i’m still not 100% sure on exactly how i’ll organize it but this is what i’m currently using and it works okay. 

for cas poses i also add a prefix of what trait it replaces so i can easily see the ones i already have. for example  →GOOFBALL CreatorNamePoseName 

i think that’s everything. the only other thing i can think of is bulk rename utility
