This is a combination of a bright idea I had one evening, and another one of those pesky long-term projects that I just figured out how to complete *sigh*. The shorts are based on a RL-pair that I saw on a young lady while out and about; the top was an idea that I got immediately upon seeing the "Silk Banglor Top" from the Sims 3 store from behind for the first time. Neither project went as planned. It was surprisingly difficult to find a base mesh to work on the shorts, and the crop top idea definitely went sideways on me more than once. (Also learned that sometimes you just have to knuckle down and tweak your clothes' morphs by hand. LOL.)

These are both extensive edits of two store items--the Silk Banglor Top and the Melanie High-Waisted Pants. All LODs and morphs (except pregnancy) included. The top has four channels and can be found under everyday, formal, swimwear, athletic wear, and career; the shorts have one channel and will be found under everyday, formal, and career. The shorts are enabled for random sims; the top is not.

I made a notable change to the shorts; I changed the pattern tiling on each of the presets, so the first preset pair of shorts (with black buttons) has tiling of 8x8, the second preset pair (with white buttons) has tiling of 6x6, and the third preset pair is the EA standard 4x4. The in-game thumbnails are labeled accordingly. Hopefully that makes them a bit more versatile for you

As always, I hope and your sims enjoy it!
