That 90's thread

Hey everyone. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Since this year marks my 40th birthday ( ๐Ÿคฏ ) I've been feeling rather nostalgic...missing my younger days in what I would call the greatest decade ever: the 1990's. ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’› Some of the best years of my life were in the 90's (apart from meeting the love of my life in 2006) and I wanna keep some of the best of the 1990's (as well as early 2000's - I'll allow it ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป) alive in our Sims 3 games. So that's why I've created this thread. A place where we can share any kind of cc out there that screams 1990's (early 2000's)! ๐Ÿ˜

Now some of you might be thinking, "Emorrill, there's already 1990's styles in the Sims 3." True... But NOT ENOUGH! ๐Ÿ˜œ

I know there's plenty of y'all on here that share my love of the 90's, so if you have or happen upon any kind of cc out there that's 1990's (early 2000's) related - hairstyles, clothing, furniture, make-up styles (outlined lips anyone? ๐Ÿ˜›) - please share it on here. And bookmark this thread! Cause I wanna feel more nostalgia and have a 90's cc collection! โญ 

*I only ask a couple of things when sharing: Please provide a photo of the cc that you found as well as a working download link for it. (It's no fun if we can't download it... ๐Ÿ˜ฅ) I certainly welcome anyone who can provide links to cc found online that is no longer available on the internets anymore, ๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป but the pictures are still out there to taunt us. ๐Ÿ˜ #annoying! 


^That's still a pound sign to me, btw. ๐Ÿ˜‚^

**Please remember: While some of the cc I share on here has been play-tested in my game, others have not. As is the case with all cc, you download at your own risk. Always back up your current cc, and save folders, before adding in any new cc just in case. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป 

Anyway!

๐ŸŽต Let's get ready to rumble! ๐ŸŽต

Now y'all, my memory ain't what it used to be so there's only so many styles from the 90's that I actually remember. ๐Ÿ˜ต Let me start the cc sharing off with this one: 

"The Rachel Cut" Hairstyle from the hit TV show F*R*I*E*N*D*S. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Y'all remember the beautiful Jennifer Aniston sporting the iconic hairstyle, right?

Over the years I've found a couple of cc hairstyles that resemble it quite nicely (and now they are lost to the internet), but I think this is the best one still available so far that I've found. And it was created by none other than the incredible Peggy! 

This hairstyle is available for download in this MEGA collection of PeggyZone hairs:
https://mega.nz/folder/0QsmVTIY#rfaSJG-WVIZIDPUMD10R8w/folder/ZN9wUZ7I
(You'll have to copy and paste this link into a new tab due to the forum dubbing it an "invalid HTML" ๐Ÿ™„ That drives me nuts!)

Here's how it looks in game to those who are curious. ๐Ÿ˜‰

If any of y'all have another (or better) version of The Rachel Cut, please feel free to share. ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

There's some other late 90's hairstyle gems in that MEGA folder like this one:
(Which apparently Jennifer Aniston also sported. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป I just remember many girls in my high school doing their hair like this. ๐Ÿ˜Š)

Edit to add: When testing ^this hair^ in my game it was not showing up in CAS. ๐Ÿ™ So I found a nice retexture of it which I hope works. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป Here's the link:

Here's how the retextured hair by anubis looks like in my game, with color variations. โญ

Anyhoo!

Now share all the 90's cc you can find with me (us) y'all! ๐Ÿ˜ Let's have a bunch of fun reminiscing with this thread. ๐Ÿฅฐ Thanks y'all!

~~~Please remember that I edit posts often to add more cc items I find that fit the theme of that particular post. So don't forget to refer back to the older posts to see what's new and decide if you want more! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป~~~

  • Okay this is probably a smidge more Y2K, but I saw KotaJose converted this set from a TS4 creator that features the classic vest layered over an ultra long ruffly tank layered over a t-shirt! lol

  • Hmm...flare jeans plus butterfly patterns on it? ๐Ÿค”

    I really can't think of anything more mid 1990's than that. ๐Ÿ˜œ (Ok, maybe I can. but y'all get what I mean. ๐Ÿ˜‰)

  • I'm baaaaaack y'all! With another good one! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

    I've been revisiting Severinka's site and snagging things I didn't save before (because Sims 3 cc is dropping like flies on the internet anymore these days), OR discovering new things I didn't even know were on there! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ Like:

    ***Drumroll please***   

    THESE TOYS FROM THE 90'S! โญ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป HECK YEAH! ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿป

    Enjoy these my friends. ๐Ÿฅฐ

  • How did I miss this thread? It has some interesting things in it, in particular the long dreadlock hairs. I think I've been looking for something like that at one point earlier and found nothing, so if the links work I'll get them now while I can. ๐Ÿ˜› (The links worked).

    Also, I found that the link to the tankini thing above no longer works, but it can be found again here, along with more other stuff:

    EDIT: Sorry, I found it necessary to remove the link. I should have checked it more before sharing. There were uh... naked sim bodies in there. ๐Ÿ˜• I still have it bookmarked though.

    EDIT2: Direct link to the tankini thing that bypasses the previously linked to page.  http://www.simfileshare.net/download/5895345/

    Never heard of a tankini before, though I may have seen them and never known what they were called, but it's an interesting style. Maybe it will look good on some of my sims.  Forgive me, I was never much of a fashion expert. ๐Ÿ˜‰

    I'm not saying no to band t-shirts either, even though I already have a few of those... but come on, Imagine Dragons is not a punk band! ๐Ÿ˜‰

    AND THE BALLPIT FOR TODDLERS! WHEE! ๐Ÿ˜›

    I may have to come back to this thread at a later point too, there's to much stuff here.. I have been postponing buying a new computer for some time (to get more hard drive space and more RAM). Totally not related, but I think I'm gonna have to do it soon.. I'm not running out of space or memory, no... ๐Ÿ˜›

    It's not that important what decade the clothes my sims wear are from, as the live in a fictional world where anything goes as long as it doesn't look bad (to my eyes that is). ๐Ÿ˜›

    LOL! Well I'm glad you found this place Sprottenhamโ€‹ ๐Ÿ˜Š

    And yes, thank you for letting me know that the Tankini DL is no longer working. I fixed it on the post with your SFS link. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป Much appreciated! ๐Ÿ’œ

    I agree that Imagine Dragons is not a punk band... ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ To each their own I guess. ๐Ÿ™ƒ

    **************************************************************

    Got another one here for y'all. These study journals totally look like what we teen girls had in the 90's. ๐Ÿ˜‰ Almost brings back memories for me...and how I would decorate up my personal journal. Hee hee! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ’œ

    DL from Simquiry's Tumblr 

    Enjoy! ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿป
