The Urban Homage Kit includes various styles from the 90s and early 2000s. This London-city living-inspired Kit comes with twenty-eight new pieces of Create A Sim, CAS content. This Kit covers the full range of CAS from tops, bottoms, accessories, and shoes.
My favorite piece from this Kit is a toss-up between the Butterfly top and the Overalls. Both were staple pieces of fashion for many of us during this time. Of course, I also love the nails and the crop top with sheer sleeves.
Party Essentials Kit
The Party Essentials Kit brings all your party needs to your game! This Sims 4 Kit has everything from snacks, and decor, to music and party props! A total of twenty-seven items are in this pack! For decor, we are talking lighting, streamers, balloons, and decorative snacks! You have to have snacks at parties… that is just a given!

There are several lighting fixtures included in this Kit that bring a bright and colorful party atmosphere! I enjoy the neon lights and the gradient wall light! The freezer bunny is super awesome and fun! The bright colors just bring the part to the room! These items can also be used for other builds and rooms as well, which I really like having versatility in content.
The Party Essentials Kit also includes a new bar, dance floor, TV, and stereo. Out of all the items I most enjoy the tiled wall, it has a lot of really fun color patterns. I will be using this as a colorful backsplash in kitchens! I tried it in my review test lot and absolutely love it!

I personally enjoyed looking at these two kits. I did do a live stream on our Twitch channel and we talked about how the Urban Homage Kit brings back those fond fashion-style memories of the 90s and early 2000s. The butterfly tops, jean jackets with crop tops, overhalls, and more. We totally remember these and the vibrance of colors in this era of Fashion and it is nice to see it included in the game.
Of the two I personally would buy the Urban Homage Kit first, but my playstyle also leans more towards Create a Sim, than building and decorating. For those who play events or like to decorate for events the Party Essentials Kit is very useful. I cannot wait to see what Simmers create with these two new Sims 4 Kits!
