The Sims 4 CAS – A Story from Africa [Outfits Showcase + CC Links]

«Karasi lost her parents when she was still a child, and was raised by her grandmother Kioni, a sage, born-blind elder. Karasi had to learn how to take care of herself and her nana from a very early age; she grew up wise, mature and responsible but didn't lose her joyfulness and lively spirit. Her name means "Life and Wisdom" and her surname means “generous”. Her grandma's name, Kioni, means "The one who sees", because despite her blindness, she knows and sees with her heart; her surname means “spirit”.»


I LOVE the way these Sims turned out! They are simply beautiful in such a natural way and they have so much character to them. Kioni ended up looking a bit like a female Morgan Freeman, but she’s just adorable.

I had such a hard time finding clothes for them, cause there really doesn’t seem to be many tribe-like CC dresses around (I searched everything I could think of in every way xD), and I unfortunately do not know African traditions and cultures, so I may have made a mess with the way I dressed them. I just tried to do my best with what I could find and I hope I didn’t offend anyone ♡

I am also using this amazing, life-changer, dynamic body shine:

(I seriously fell in love with it, it adds so much more than the flat highlights on CC skins that look good only from one angle but immediately lose realism as you turn your Sims around. It does unfortunately affect some of the clothes also, when they normally would not be shiny, but it’s a price I’m willing to pay to see my Sims come to life)
