more clothing, yay! enjoy a request from miik on the simscord. it's @belaloallure3's jeanne silk dress, from their burning desire collection, converted from ts4 to ts2! it comes paired with @jius-sims' strappy gladiator sandals 01. i have also converted another similar outfit for miik by belaloallure here! 🌟

the original outfit would've been in the 20k polys range, but i've managed to lower the whole thing down to just 5266 polys! it's for yf-af only and has all morphs. 9 swatches, categorised as everyday/formalwear. bear in mind that the butterflies might clip with the shoulders here and there 🥲

Remember to affirm and cheer for yourself as much as you do for those you love!

The positives of ‘putting yourself out there’ are worth it. Having a great conversation with a stranger will be worth the awkwardness of starting that exact conversation. Joining a small community of people you will see regularly is worth having to get through a scary first day. Getting your dream job is worth the scariness of chasing it. Don’t pick and choose experiences based on the level of ease now, but choose them based on how you want to come out of them.

You don't need everyone to like you. I understand this can be an overwhelming trauma response to being neglected and otherwise hurt as a kid without the comfort and reassurance of our parents. But please try to remember that your worth is not dependent on how many people can love you. You have something much more important and worth protecting-- your heart and soul and mind and spirit. Not everyone you meet in this world is gonna resonate and vibe with you on those same levels. You've got to get comfortable with the concept of being misunderstood or feeling out of place-- and, rather than fawn to fit in, take that as a sign to find the spaces and people who can better appreciate you for it.

i hope you did at least one thing for yourself today. whether that's brushing your teeth, drinking a nice cup of tea, taking a break to listen to your favorite song or reading your favorite poem. it doesn't have to be grand to be meaningful. it is so important to stay close to what brings you joy and purpose in life. ❤️

a 'little' request that i fulfilled over on the simscord! @cinnamonsims' vera dress converted from ts4 to ts2, and paired with @trillyke's labyrinth stockings + @jius-sims' canvas platform sneakers! a beautiful dress for you to style your sims with 🥰

the outfit's entire polycount was close to 30k (criminal...), but i managed to cut it down to just 7346 polys. there's still some black spots remaining (largely visible on the shoes and straps in bodyshop, but otherwise i'm super proud of how everything came out! the dress is for tf-af only, tf is repo'd to af, and all morphs are included! it's categorised as everyday/formalwear.

DOWNLOAD: SFS | MF 🌟

credits go to @cinnamonsims, @trillyke, and @jius-sims for the original ts4 meshes & textures of these items! plus to @paluding, whose sim tattooer i used to convert the stockings 😍

THINGS TO NOTE

every single part of the body is a separate group. i did this because i wanted it to be easier to make recolors, but if that annoys you as a creator it should (theoretically) be possible to combine the dress, shoes, and socks groups together and layer the textures on one another, since they use the ts4 uv map.

expect some clipping/unclipping issues with the legs while walking. i did my best and it's not as visible as it used to be, but the legs can and will pop out from under the skirt.

SWATCH

if there are any issues that you find with this dress, please don't be afraid to let me know! happy simming, and when you download this, do keep in mind,

On this Valentine’s Day please don’t forget about the Palestinian people. Candy is being bought in droves while innocent people are starving. While people are planning romantic dinners for their lovers, Palestinian people are losing their lovers to bombs and snipers. There is no rest for the Palestinian people today. Don’t let them mask what’s really happening behind pink ribbon. Fight for love, find empowerment in your love for others. We will not stop fighting, not for a single day. Palestine will be free.

#suggestions #free palestine #Valentine’s Day #palestine genocide #free Palestinians #I queue posts all year for Valentine’s Day #and this year I’m watching them roll out and I can’t stop thinking about the love that isn’t being extended to Palestinian people today #about how many have lost lovers and children #how many families have been destroyed

2024 is about letting people care about and for you. it’s about answering ‘how are you’ with honesty, asking for space when needed, accepting help and being open to advice, listening to concerns and having difficult conversations. it’s about trying your very best to let go of the feeling that you’re completely alone, and finding ways to prove to yourself that you aren’t.

#‘proving to yourself’ because waiting for others to prove it to you is going to end up in disappointment #nobody will ever meet you in the exact way you want them to #but that doesn’t mean that they won’t meet you at all #learning to be a social being #positivity #positive #positive suggestions #positive thinking #suggestions #suggestion #comfort kindness family #self validation #self love #self care

Knowing if you spoke up you would be either mocked or downplayed or told you're being too sensitive

Being told you're "disrespectful" or "not allowed" to talk back or disagree in any way

Being told you're too chicken or being forced to feel dumb or stupid if you don't join in

Being openly mocked or talked about by the whole group

Expressing a concern and they get mad at you for being mad at them

You're always the one in the wrong even when you were the one being hurt

They use grandiose words and phrases to assert dominance

"walking on eggshells"

They continue to do the things you asked them to stop doing even after countless times asking them

They don't care about how you feel

They make no effort to acknowledge your feelings or acknowledge how their behavior is affecting you

They force you to participate in drugs/alcohol

They hold their power and good deeds they have done for you over your head and threaten to stop helping or support you or even take back what they have given you

They are physically aggressive/ violent

Rage

Rage during substance use

Touching you without asking

Downplaying anything you need as not important

What to do:

Take a deep breath

Take your time figuring it out

Remind yourself this isn't your fault

Stay focused on the behavior- because they WILL try to detract from it & turn it around on you

Gather your resources

Consider leaving or cutting contact

Consider therapy or online support groups to help yourself breathe and find safer spaces for yourself

Have an exit plan

Do not engage with the arguments & emotional bait

Cultivate your privacy

Cultivate your security

Cultivate yourself a safe space

Prepare yourself for the backlash

Ask someone safe to go with you

Call someone safe and ask them to stay on the phone with you if you do not feel safe

Self defense tools like pepper spray & brass knuckles

Know you're worth the exit

Take yourself seriously when they dont

Honor the gut feelings

Restore faith in your judgement

Honor your voice

Honor your body

Honor your "no"

Ask for a pause- "I need a break."

Ask for clarity- "Can you clarify that?"

Ask what their intentions are- "Are you being helpful or hurtful?"

Bring attention to the behavior and how it's making you feel- "I'm not comfortable with the way you're ignoring my concerns."

Make direct eye contact & deepen your voice- "You need to stop."

Do not apologize

Hope this helps!
