Hi @SoulGal7 @mcrudd and all, it's fun to see this challenge in action :)
SoulGal, interesting to read your experiences with Trendi so far. I have found that mixing styles in a single outfit doesn't seem to create any obvious problems. The outfit gets labeled with one of the style types used.
But, even with my fashionista alien sim who has Entreprenurial skill 4 and a lot of followers, I find that "promote current look" always fails, and "hype outfit" almost always fails even when directed at a sim who definitely likes the designated fashion style of the outfit.
When you said that mixing styles doesn't work, did you mean that mixing styles interferes with the ability to build hype? Or if not, what did you mean? What fails, when you mix styles in a single outfit?
Also when you "promote current look" 17 times or 30 times or whatever, do you ever get the fail message? "hype has decreased" or something like that?
thanks for any help you can provide :)
