The Modern Menswear kit is the Journey to Batuu of CAS kits.

We need an IRL basics kit. Better t-shirts, hoodies, tank tops, button ups and jeans

The Incheon Arrivals, Moonlight Chic and Grunge Revival are one of the best CAS kits that actually worth buying, I use them all the time.

grunge revival is my absolute favorite kit, I love cas and we never have enough alternative styles in this game. everything's either very basic or very bright or both. plus, grunge is probably as close as we'll get to punk, so now my simself can now look more like me! I just wish we had more diverse styles in the sims in general, or even a few "grunge" hairstyles like a side shave or purposefully messy

ready for simsie to absolutely hate all of this in a kind and respectful manner

grunge revival and incheon arrivals are my absolute must haves, i use something from those kits in every single save. modern menswear was soooo disappointing, we are always lacking in stuff for masculine framed sims so its so frustrating that they flubbed a kit meant entirely for them

Moonlight chic has two of the best CAS items offered by EA - that strappy dress you showed, and the sneakers.

Honestly kits were fun at first....now its just a waste of time, money and resources

i’d definitely put modern menswear in not worth buying tbh. the idea of more “feminine”/high fashion clothing for male/masculine frame sims in the game is so good, but they really missed the mark with this one. grunge revival is easily my favorite kit. i love the aesthetic of it and i’m so excited for the goth kit to come out next year!!

Incheon Arrivals I genuinely use on almost every single one of my sims. It has the best sneakers, best dress pants, and best sweatshirt in the whole game

Next up: ranking every Gameplay Kit in the Sims 4! Last place; bust the dust kit!! First place: nothing!

I love how they collaborated with Brazilian drag queen Pabllo Vittar to make the Carnival Streetwear Kit, it just made so much sense and my queen knows about Brazilian Carnival better than anyone else!!💛🇧🇷

Honestly I was really glad when we got the grunge revival kit because I’ve dressed alternatively irl. I also use the first fits kit in like every save where I’ve had a kid sim. Those are definitely my favorite cas kits. I do kinda like that they have some smaller niche things that we can get but also sometimes $5 for just a handful of items feels not worth it unless I really like and would use the items in an every day kind of gameplay.

Kayla is right about stuff packs tbh. I like home chef hustle and paranormal but I'd say the stuff pack I get the most use out of by FAR is tiny living. The build/buy/CAS assets are all cute and useable and I get SO much use out of the gameplay of living in tiny houses. They're a fun challenge to build and live in especially with a family and the buffs you get are a really nice reward

the fashion street kit was one of the free kits from the epic games bundle. i thought it was so random and that i would never use it. but now i actually really like it? my favorite items are the tank top with the big arm holes, and the baggy shorts. just really fun items for masculine framed sims.

Incheon Arrivals is perfection because it has soo much basic normal clothes 😭 like what people actually wear nowadays on a daily basis. I want one that will be like "basics" that are missing in ts4, because there are a lot of obvious pieces that aren't in the game but instead they add something super extra very often

I think with some of the stuff it also...for instance you say the grunge kit has style that is reminiscent of the werewolves pack. Maybe you like the style of the CAS in that pack but don't have the $$ for that pack or don't want actual werewolves. That is where the grunge kit comes in handy. It's cheaper and gives you that style you're looking for. I know the argument is that its expensive for what you get but some people only have $5 to spare so its helpful in that sense.

That's not the only oversized hoodie. There's a base game oversized hoodie that was added on a patch around HSY's release as well.

Kits have such little content, like you can get an expansion pack for around $15 from 3rd party sellers (or even $20 from EA on sale which happens really often) and you get like 10 times the content. I really wish they came with maybe 100 items or so, as that would make them a lot more worthwhile

i pretty much only have the grunge revival kit & incheon arrivals kit and they’re both very good and versatile for the outfits i use for my sims

The fashion street kit I got I think with a free bundle but I honestly LOVE it. I made a few Indian sims and I loved going all out on the accessories and stuff.

Menswear isn't worth buying...I'm mad that I got it thinking I was gonna get cool men's pieces. The MeUndies collab kit, I actually like. I use their stuff a lot in my games. The Grunge Revival kit is a MUST have!! I love that kit!!!

i want a CAS kit (or even a build kit) created by the drag queen trixie mattel. her fashion and makeup is just so iconic, but a build kit would be awesome too because she did Trixie Motel where she literally designed an entire motel- she also likes the sims a lot

This was super helpful, thank you! We have very different tastes and play styles, but your review gave me a solid glimpse inside the packs!

I use the moonlight chic fluffy jumper all the time, the pink is so cute 😂

I use grunge revival and moonlight chic an obnoxious amount. Probably because they most closely resemble my own style, and its hard to detach my personal style from my sims. I also use poolside splash a lot because i hate all the basegame swimwear 😂. That being said, I'd love to see more grunge/punk/goth fashion in the game. I know vampires is gothic inspired, but its very old fashioned gothic, whereas I really want a more modern goth pack. Not to mention, dont get me started on how badly I want a Y2K themed pack..

My issue is that most of the cas kits either should have been in other packs (like grunge in Highschool or werewolf, Heck the Indian inspired kit would have been perfect for city living!) or basegame updates (swimwear and underwear, Incheon arrival)

First fits is really cute for the kids 😊

Yay been waiting for this, as I get paid Friday and want to buy some kits, I know which build ones I want that all my favourite builders use. So now I need to know what's good with CAS ones lol, so thanks for this! 😊🥰 I now have it confirmed to buy Moonlight chic and First Fits, they were the ones I was liking the look of, and seeing more of them, I want them even more! 😊 I did go for Grunge straight away, I wanted the vans lol, I love the oversize hoodie and the crop top lol I'm still on the fence with poolside splash kit, it does look cute for kids, and I love the shirt, but feel like I'll buy other kits before it lol This was very helpful, I don't build but I like other simmers builds, yours especially lol, so I like to get content for my sims and their builds, so thanks again! 😊🥰

I love the simtimates collection!! I mainly use it for boujee-er sims or to mix and match the underwear pieces with t-shirts or pj trousers to make my sims a little more cute and casual

Modern Menswear has big David Rose from Schitts Creek vibes though.

I'm watching this and also watched the build kit ranking video, and making a list of kits I want and kits I mayyyybe want. When you were talking about the First Fits kit, I put it in "Maybe" until you showed off the backpack - for that one item alone, it was the first CAS pack that went into NEED lmao, tops with backpacks are so cuteeeeeee 😭😭

My favorite time of day is when Kayla uploads!

oh i didn’t expect this from you im excited for this

I completely agree with the must have tier, except I would put Grunge Revival there too. I love more alt fashion styles and it helped fill that gap for me❤

Love it when I wake up to a new Kayla video!

for me as a Kpop stan the Incheon arriavls kit is a ✨masterpiece ✨

I love love love Grunge Revival, fashion Street and Incheon Arrivals

I love Simtimates, my sims dont leave their lot a lot so they walk around in pjamas a lot. all the old underwear i was tired of and was so base game feeling

I'm obsessed with that Stefan Cooke dress it is so iconic and nice imo but def not super generally useful lol

after hearing the word CAS kit so many times it started to sound like 'casket' instead 😂

I think for me grunge revival, the kids kit, incheon arrival and moonlight chic are "want to have"s and the rest is "I don't wanna spend more money and don't need this" XD

2:39 “And I always say this, but their best work is always when it’s collaborative" And then there’s a mosquito stuff pack that kayla disfavor so much lmao 😭😭😭😭

Since I found The Sims this May, I've been trying to get the packs and kits as best as I can. I was about to buy some packs and a kit when I saw this episode had popped up. I had to watch it first. I had literally put 🇰🇷 Incheon Arrivals (as a flightsimmer as well, that should've been easy for me to write already but oh well) to the cart as my first kit. 😅

“The best packs are the ones that are collaborative” Moschino stuff: 👀

Incheon Arrival is so great. Was sold as I saw the parkers. Love all of them!

I love the little boo on the chair behind you! (Little ghost pillow)

Incheon arrivals, grunge revivals, and first fits kit are my favs!

it was helpful, seriously. Bcz I already get my sisms4 and I need more opinion on what to get and what not to get.. and thank you

I love moonlight chic, I use it for most of my sims

the grunge revial kit is the only CAS kit I have ever bought and I love it! I use those items more than anything! With that being said, it's probally because I don't have wearwolfes. I'm not really interested in wearwolfes tho, and never have been, but always thought the CAS from that pack was some of the coolest CAS in the game. So, in my opionon, it's actully really nice to have a kit that is similar in style to a big pack, but without the gameplay, because people like me, who don't care for the gameplay but love the style is able to get it:)

i use the grunge revival kit constantly but i also use the werewolf pack constantly so those might be correlated

grunge revival is the only cas kit i've bought the stuff in it are sooo cute, i also want incheon arrivals at some point

SIMSIE U ALWAYS GIVE ME THE EXACT CONTENT I WANT U MAKE MY DAY I LOVE U SO MF MUCH

First Fits and Grunge are my favs! The others are okay,... but I rarely use them

I’d love to see a ranking video of all the major base game updates. Sometimes the base game updates that came along side expansion packs were more exciting and more impactful than the actual expansion packs.

i hate how much i actually really love kits

I agree with everything except for your opinion on the grunge revival kit. I do agree that the clothing is very similar to the werewolves pack but I don't want to buy the werewolves pack just for the clothes because I personally don't want werewolves in my game.

moonlight chic was worth it just for the sneakers i swear i use them all the time

love your vids!

There's maybe two items from the Modern Menswear kits that I use occasionally for male sims. I actually find I use it more with androgynous presenting female or enby sims, but even then, it's pretty rare.

I would LOVE to see her doing this comparison with Sims 3 packs too.

I'm a new fan 😊❤ I love your videos and you are adorable! Love from Italy

Anyone else completely forget that the grunge revival kit even exists Like I remember it from the poll the team did a while ago but I didn't even notice when it got released

Incheon Arrivals and Grunge Revival is the only two kits I care about *CAS kits ofc

The Incheon Arrivals kit is one of my favorite kits all around!

They should do a toddler and infant CAS kit with clothes and hair. I probably wouldn't get it but I kinda want one to exist

Heyyy! Super excited my cat backpack is on the way eee!!!

Other than the debate of "Should Horse Ranch have been a game pack" I can't really complain about no game pack when we're getting 3 expansion packs 🤷‍♀️. Always interesting to hear your take and you aren't far off my own thoughts

Honestly, Kayla uploading is the best part of my day ❤

My favorite are the Incheon Arrivals kit and the Grundge Revival kit

i really like the grunge kit a lot. the carnival one i like for adding some fun to my sims wardrobe. the swimwear and moonlight chic are fine. and the underwear was ok but i wasnt excited. i dont own any of the others.

I haven’t bought any, the price is just pretty drastic for the content. But I also haven’t really liked at them and I really liked the carnaval and grunge kits, so thanks for showing us on sims as well as on the menu!

As someone from Brazil, the Carnaval kit is really fun for me :)

One thing that bothers me a little about kits is that you can find cc packs with much more content and most of the time, for free

as someone who uses cc religiously. i just can’t justify buying a cas stuff pack when i can get just as good stuff (if not better) through independent creators for free or for a few dollars.

I like the kits personally. I like having the option of getting smaller, more niche items, and considering they’re split into build/buy and cas separately, you don’t have to get the ones/stuff you don’t want ☺️👌🏼 they come to like $8CAD , which is a couple of coffees and definitely worth it to me personally. I see why people would prefer them to be cheaper, and I agree, but I’m still happy with the cost of these compared to the other types of packs

I like simtimates tho.. my sim looks cute in it and sits in the kitchen wearing it to eat breakfast.

Grunge Kit Love 🤘🏻🤘🏻

It's funny, just as you said, the style of each one greatly affects what you think of each pack, in general I think very similar to Lilsimsie, for some reason I haven't bought any of them except for one... the grunge one, I bought it the same day as It came out and it's the only one really care.

Carnaval kit was designed by Pabllo Vittar, a very popular brazilian drag artist, that’s why the makeup is so good! ❤

I got the Fashion Street kit free when Epic was giving it away & I use it a LOT.

the grunge kit is completely different from the werewolf pack! i use all the items frequently, i have to stop myself from using it for sims that have the opposite aesthetic just cause i love it so much. my only issues are that i wish there was more stuff like it, and a lot of it isn't actaully that grungey, more like urban outfitters stuff lol but still cute. i like cas items that aren't so polished and that look a bit worn-in, wrinkly, frayed, like something that's been owned and worn frequently for a while. i also like pieces that look thrifted and unique! i can never seem to find enough of the rare cas and cc clothes that actually look like clothes i can afford and like to wear. and layered stuff too!

I would argue that literally the only CAS kit that is needed (and I'm pretty sure the only one I own) is the first fits kit. I have my sims kids in those clothes ALL the time. 🙈 they are just so nice compared to other kids stuff!

honestly i really love the menswear one

I can't believe the grunge revival and simtimates didn't rank higher, 'cause I use those propably the most! xD the modern menswear might be the only cas kit I don't have and I think that says it all :DDD I love cas kits that have very "mundane" clothes, as in cothes for everyday use as well as stuff for the most common events in the sims, like fancy dresses etc. For example my sims don't really got to the Carnevale often (more like never) xD

I got Throwback Fit, not sure why, it's cute enough, but eh. But Grunge Revival is the only other CAS kit I've bought. Absolute favorite. I do want the kids one, though...

I reaaally hope the Gothic kit comes with a nice kilt for male sims! I feel like kilts are quite popular in goth fashion (or at least have been), so I hope they pick up on that. Also, I kinda get the feeling that the Country Kitchen and Grunge Revival kits might have been assets (or concepts) that were made for Cottage Living and Werewolves respectively, but were scrapped because they had to many items and but the Sims team liked them so they wanted to release them anyway. I have no idea if that is actually the case, but it make sense to me 😅 The Grunge Revival is the only cas kit I have because I use cc, but I think that it is really good! It's a nice alternative for people who want the aesthetic but don't want werewolves, plus the werewolf items all have wolf-themed patterns, which is fine but I don't want it on every grungy sim.

I actually have the carnaval kit uninstalled for my game I'd say first fits and sintimates are my favorite cas kits though

omg yessssssssssssssssss you posted a new vid ! !!!!!!!!!!

It`s a good time when Kayla uploads!

Carnival Streetwear is also a collab with Brazilian pop star/drag queen Pabllo Vittar! Which is probably why there are awesome fun colorful pieces for masculine frames and pride flags 🥰

I use the underwear in rags to riches and runaway stories as swimsuit and alternate cause they don’t have anything else they have very limited items until they get money for more clothes still not one I’d recommend to people but that’s how I use it

Lilsimsie, you did an exceptional job describing and evaluating these kits. I LOVE CAS kits and thoroughly enjoyed the video!

My absolute favorite one is Incheon Arrivals.

For me how I play is different in every game, in Sims 2 I like to play rotational with the premades and work around the existing sims and buildings, in Sims 4 I like to build and dress up sims and the gameplay gets boring quickly, not to mention the awful lagging, and I suppose Sims 3 is the only one where I actually like both making the sims, building them a home, and playing with them. Although the real reason I like to play the premades in 2 is probably that I suck at TS2 CAS... like, I don’t have much CAS CC because I just don't care too much, mostly just replacement eyes and some non everyday separates (the mod to do that does require a custom launcher, but it's perfectly safe and offers some other fun features like lighting adjustments and being able to tell your Discord friends that you're playing Sims 2, personally I like being able to adjust the cost of the design tool, TS3 was my first and having to pay to alter the colors of something never really felt okay to me.)

Honestly, I never bought many CAS packs, I think I only have 1, I also like gameplay and building better, and to be honest, the base game has such great clothes! I never looked at the items in the CAS kits, so I don't know what I'm missing out on, though.

My fav is the carnaval 🎉

i love kits, kits allow me (no money, always broke) to access content for my favourite game. I can afford $8 every so often, more than i can afford $60 in a lump sum.. so.. kinda frustrating that people keep hating on it, especially for the price.

i never really understood buying kits if you have access to cc
