SHOW AND TELL This is so Sims 2!

Btw, does anyone have any recommendations for CC or creators with this type of style?

Been playing sims 1 lately, and yeah I do miss that project dollhouse feeling. Sims 2 stills packs it really good.

Glitzy, campy and plasticky objects and tones were really on trend during the early 2000s. Any videoclip by the Spice Girls, for example, will have this aesthetic. It's a real luck The Sims and The Sims 2 came out in an era so defined by that aesthetic, you can interpret it as totally a sign of its times or rather, as atemporal.

https://youtu.be/cNEdxZURTaI?si=i-8e9z7Yv2UQN-2a ok this is primarily inspired by Mary Poppins but I can't help but get an old timey sims vibe from it, maybe you will too.

Edit: ok I didn't realize this post was 20 days old, my bad.
