Holy crap you guys, I have some stuff to share.



I know, I know, another random outfit with stompy boots. What can I say? I personally wear one pair of stompy boots or another with just about everything, ergo, so do my sims.

Back when I first started meshing this was one of the first things I attempted to do, though it was with a different pair of boots. It ended in disaster then. A year and change later, it went rather more smoothly! Still no morphs, though, because I'm a bit afraid to try adding morphs to a mesh with three groups. In the future I may give it a try.

So here's the thing with this one. There's a few different options. Two different meshes, for one thing: there's the one in the teaser, which is the AL body shape unedited except for removing the meshed-on jewelry, and then there's a version with a slightly more defined waist, which you can see in the Body Shop preview. I couldn't decide which I liked better, so you can have either one! But you can't have both, they replace each other and may explode your game if you try to use both at once, I'm not sure.

Then you get your choice of everyday, or everyday and outerwear. And that's everything, I think!

All three textures in Body Shop:

Chances are someone else has done this already, but I did it too and maybe someone would like it, so!

Nouk's hairs are always beautiful and well-crafted, but they don't always fit my game aesthetic, so I was extra thrilled when I stumbled across this one. Me being me, I decided it Needed Pooklet's Colors, Mm Hmm. So I did that. Just their naturals, I did a couple of the unnaturals but didn't love how it turned out. But there's Volatile, so neons can be DIYed if you want them! Textures are Nouk's originals, because they're lovely, and also I lack the patience to go over every last curl with Pooklet's texture and Warp.

Binned and familied in four families. Elders keep their colors, Time Bomb is included for grey/white. Mesh is included also. Have at it.

OPEN BOOTS + EA MESH = ♥__♥

Also! The hair is lovely and I've been waiting on them with Pooklet's pretty colors. So double yay! :D

That hair is so gorgeous! I haven't found many curly meshes that I like, but this one is so pretty, especially in Pooklet's colours. And it's funny how a shoe change can completely save a mesh. Thank you for sharing! :)

Hello there, shoe swap I was thinking about doing! I think all of my sims wear stompy boots in some form, this will be a welcome addition to their wardrobes.

And hooray for hair! It's a quite nice mesh and I'll probably be using it now that it has all of Pooklet's colors.

What are the 3 separate groups on the mesh? Adding morphs to meshes with groups seems scary but it's not that much more difficult than on normal meshes, just have to make sure each group has a different morph number.

And I downloaded both the outfit and the hair, they're great XD

The boots, if you don't change where they join the legs won't need a morph; it will still show even if the other parts have morphs.

5 groups? That is a lot! :|

Yeah, pretty much, alpha layered tops/dresses are a bit more tricky as they have to fit over the fat/preg morph on the body.

I have always loved that dress! I'm loving it even more with those boots. It makes me jealous, that dress looks so warm and comfy. Thank you so much! ♥

Aaaah, I was hoping someone would Pooklet that hairstyle. X) I usually pass up longer styles since there are SO MANY, but I can't resist having more non-straight hair.

Thanks!
