200 Followers Gift: 19th-century Men's Lookbook

Finally, here it is. A gift to you all for getting my follower count up to a whole 200. I know it's not a huge milestone, but I'm excited about it, and I'm glad so many other people are interested in the things I make. As of right now I have 212 followers, and there were only about 190 students at my elementary school. That's weird. That's a lot of people.

This is a more informal lookbook than my usual ones. I haven't really gone all in on the photo editing. It's more of a timeline of fashion than a true lookbook. Note that it's a mix of casual wear (1810, 1820, 1830, 1850), regular daywear (1800, 1860, 1870, 1880, 1890) and evening wear (1840).

1800s: hair / glasses (TSR) / suit / boots (Base Game)

1810s: hair / facial hair (Base Game) / vest / breeches / boots

1820s: hair / facial hair / vest / pants (Discover University) / boots

1830s: hair / facial hair (Base Game) / outfit / boots (Base Game)

1840s: hair / facial hair (Base Game) / suit / shoes

1850s: hair / facial hair / outfit / shoes (Base Game)

1860s: hat / hair / facial hair / suit / gloves (Base Game)

1870s: hat / hair / facial hair (Cottage Living) / jacket / pants (Sack Pants) / gloves (Base Game) / boots

1880s: hat / hair / facial hair (Horse Ranch) / suit / boots

1890s: hat / hair / facial hair (Cats & Dogs) / suit (Professor Plum) / shoes (Get Together)

Advent Calendar 2023, Day X and XVII: Tenues d'hiver pour enfants

SURPRISE!

I told you it would be worth the wait!

I know there are few dates where I've been behind. But I thank you for your patience. Working 13 hours a day six days a week on top of being super sick, and then staying up into the late hours to make sure posts went out has been quite a lot for me. But things are coming!

I'm finally able to release the gifts that were due the last two Sundays (Dec 10 and 17th)! There were last minute drama's for each of them, but they are now fit and ready to go!

A huge thank you once again to @historicalfictionsims for her help in converting the dress from an adult frame to a child frame. Many may remember the dress in my previous advent calendar, as it was worn on one of my deco sims, but the dress was too broken and I didn't have any knowledge of how to fix it at the time. So with her help I was able to finally make this dress functional! And of course a huge thank you to @buzzardly28 as well for helping with all the clipping issues! We did it! <3

Kirsten's Midsummer Outfit - BGC

This was sold as part of Kirsten's collection from 2004-2006, and is not associated with any of her books. Both items come in my Combined Diary palette and Mothz patterns.

The dress is made to be compatible with @linzlu’s Kirsten pantalettes. I chose to keep the pantalettes separate so that it can work for Cottagecore as well. The only "glitch" I found was that the ruffles scrunch in the back while the sim is moving.

The basket is a mesh edit from @plumbobteasociety's Cottage Garden set. It works with the poses from the set, but due to the dress's width, the basket will clip with the skirt. The flowers are transparent and will not work with laptop mode. Like the original, the basket is categorized under right wrist but uses the texture space for both wrists.

"There is nothing in the world so irresistibly contagious as laughter and good humor." (A Christmas Carol – Charles Dickens, 1847)

surprise!!! here's some boys for y'all!

fashion just... didn't change as much or as drastically for men as it did for women. there's a few reasons for this, like the association of fashion with women, that fashion was one of few accepted ways of women's expression, that the way men were dressed was under less of a microscope... etc. etc. also, a lot of top hats were worn pretty much through the century, but i kept on forgetting them :(

1850's Court Ball Decos - BatsFromWesteros

In the Imperial Court of Vienna, there were two categories of balls. The "official" is the Court Ball, starting at 8pm. The whole court was invited, including members of the diplomatic corps, owners of different orders and official titles, high dignitaries and members of the Viennese garrisons. It was always the Empress who set the date for the ball, it usually took place at the end of January. Only the highest ranking members got an official invitation, the rest of the guests were notified at court (as 90% of the guests were "courtiers"). It was the Court Ball, where debutantes entered society. They were introduced to the Empress in a nearby room by her Obersthofmeisterin. Due to the many guests (around 1500-2000 people) and lack of space, there wasn't much dancing, it was more of a social event, where guests had the chance to speak to the Emperor and Empress during a cercle.

15 Decos - 6 swatches each

5 Debutantes - Curtsying + Standing

5 Mothers - Standing

[sims-half-crazy]

Lavinia noticed a fox lurking around while scrubbing clothes. She chased it into the garden and caught the little devil red-handed, err... red-mouthed? As Lavinia relayed her tale of woe to Eustis, she also complained about the exercise and how active it made the babe. She was less than pleased when the baby kicked her ribs. Eustis listened with a sympathetic ear, but he worried about being able to get the rest of the land cleared so they could have some chickens. Having chickens would make providing food for his family easier.

Peculiar Paranormal Set 🔮

This lovely set was requested by @puffkins2000​ and includes all of the previously unconverted items from The Sims 4: Paranormal Stuff! There are two versions of the curtains: one with beads and one without, and two versions of the tea tray: one that’s a deco item and one that functions as a candle with a lit flame. The mist inside the crystal ball is animated, which looks super cool and you can change the color of it with CASt! Also, if you have The Sims 3: Supernatural installed, the three paintings (two are not shown) may look a little different on full moon nights 😉

If you’re looking for more items from the pack, deniisu-sims, pixelfrogslegs, martassimsbookcc, firefoxsims3, and murfeelee have converted the other objects!

The wallpaper is from pixelfrogslegs here, the chair is from firefoxsims3 here, and the flooring is from a previous set of mine here.

TS2 in TS4 Megahood: Willow Creek Map

In TS4, I love building and I love sim making and this save gave me a lot of both to do. I have touched every lot in Willow Creek. Some are renovations of EA builds and some are new builds.

In Willow Creek, I wanted it to feel like a southern town. The two oldest houses in town are in a Greek Revival style intended to have been built somewhere between 1830-1850. I was picturing the two neighborhoods as neighboring plantations that were later subdivided. The subdivision of the neighborhood marked with the gazebo happened in the 1870s and the pink house was the first one to be built. The Goth's Ophelia Villa and the yellow house across the street were built about 20 years later. The other plantation didn't start selling off land until recently and are kind of chagrinned about what was built next door.

Across the river in the middle class neighborhood, we've got some smaller houses that were built between 1900-1930. One has been renovated to fit the "modern farmhouse" aesthetic. These houses are less impressive, but still pretty. The poor neighborhood is intended to look like pre-fab houses and trailers. I wanted it to have a mix of old and new as well as care for the plot of land.

Finally in the commercial district, we've got Pendula Regional Park, Willow Creek Gallery, Galactic Bowling, The Sweat Shoppe, and The Willow Creek Archive. The park is meant to be a mixed use space with something for everyone to do. The gallery is a renovation I did a couple of years ago to make the exhibits more interesting that I have updated to include art from Snowy Escape. The bowling alley is a lounge lot and includes arcade machines since I've never been to a bowling alley that didn't have an arcade. The Sweat Shoppe is a renovation of the Willow Creek gym to incorporate the rock climbing machines, yoga, and a massage table. I redid the library from the perspective of, it having once been grand but having been renovated a few times over the next hundred years and being quite utilitarian on the inside.

A great discovery for the 1850s Pride Flag Legacy is that various short female hairstyles can be worn as Victorian men’s hairstyles.

Thomas - an 1860s child's outfit (with matching pantalettes)

And another toddler dress! This one could work for most of the 1860s (1859-1868 or so). I had planned to take a short break from CC making to focus on my studies, but I guess I got a bit sidetracked by this adorable fashion plate. I'm pretty sure the child in that image is a boy (their hair is parted to the side as opposed to in the middle) but I could definitely be wrong.

Either way, I KNOW that the Thomas dress is intended for boys, since the buttons are on the right side and not the left side. But then again, this is the Sims and I don't think anyone cares about gendered button placement. So it's unisex. A little girl could wear this for sure. And if you DO care about the buttons, well, maybe that little girl has an older brother and it's a hand-me-down?

Note that since the pantalettes were designed to be compatible with this dress and this dress only, I can't guarantee that they'll work with any other dresses. Actually, I've only found ONE other compatible dress, and it's this one right here. I can confirm it looks incredibly cute with (and without) pantalettes.

"All the hopes, fears, capabilities of her nature were yet folded around her like the wings within a chrysalis." (Marian Withers – Geraldine Jewsbury, 1851)

the next decade in the timeline: the 1850s. a decade of large social turmoil and even larger skirts. these skirts were created by layering numerous petticoats, which made it unwieldy, uncomfortable, and at times unsafe. that is, up until cage crinoline of 1856! this allowed for skirts to continue to grow even further than before. another development that shifted fashion were the improvements in the sewing machine. these improvements and mass production of the singer sewing machine allowed for even the lower classes to take part in fashion trends. we also see a more "natural" waistline (natural in where it lays on the body) and soft, drooping shoulders. once again, i deviated in one outfit. i know it's technically a swimsuit. but when i saw it, it reminded me of this illustration of amelia bloomer, who famously made a stir with elizabeth smith miller and elizabeth cady stanton in 1851 when they began to wear loose trousers paired with shorter dresses, now referred to as "bloomer suits". this never caught on, but it's an important moment in the history of women's fashion in america.
