My 2nd Rainbow High Doll

Daria Roselyn is from the Rainbow High Series 3 collection.

A gift from a Facebook friend, Daria Roselyn from the Rainbow High Series 3 collection is an 11-inch, all-vinyl doll with multiple points of articulation and removable hands. She has two fashions that can be mixed and matched (described below).

Daria Roselyn and the other dolls in Rainbow High Series 3 are illustrated on the back of the box. They are from L-R: Daria Roselyn, Georgia Bloom, Daphne Minton, Gabriella Icely, and Emi Vanda.

 

Daria is shown with the boxed second fashion, boxed high-heel shoes, pink comb, and packaged accessories that include a pink doll stand, a pink clothes hanger, and a pink skirt hanger.

Daria wears outfit 1

Outfit 1

Daria Roselyn was dressed by the manufacturer in a sheer dress that is lined in black satin. The print of the spaghetti-strap dress is diamond-shaped with the word, Magic, within. A white short-sleeved crop top is worn under the dress.  Daria wears a cropped denim jacket, one half of which is dark blue and the other half is light pink. The jacket has cold shoulder sleeves and embroidered roses on the sleeves and on the back. Black rose-print sheer ankle socks and shiny black platform-soled black ankle boots with rose decorations on the sides complete this look. 

Daria's long rooted pink hair is styled in a top ponytail with the rest worn down. Her big blue eyes are shadowed in dark pink and heavily lined in black on the upper eyelids. There are painted upper and lower eyelashes along with bristle upper eyelashes.

With the denim jacket removed, Daria strikes a pose.

Daria wears fashion #2 with the socks from fashion #1.

Outfit 2

The second fashion is a two-piece black pinstriped cropped top and mini skirt that has embroidered roses on both pieces. High-heel pink shoes with gold heels and a black vinyl handbag with a rose on the top front closure complete this look. With this, she continued wearing the ankle socks from outfit #1.

Still wearing fashion #2, Daria poses on her pink doll stand.

Daria Roselyn poses with Phaedra Westward from the Rainbow High Pacific Coast Series. Their head sculpts differ slightly. Daria Roselyn’s head has the copyright year of 2020. Phaedra’s copyright year headmark is 2021. Phaedra has exchangeable legs; the series 3 dolls do not.

In the final photo above, Daria Roselyn meets Phaedra Westward, my first Rainbow High doll that was introduced here.

I really appreciate the thoughtful gesture of my Facebook friend who sent Daria Roselyn to me. Do I need more? There is one more Rainbow High doll that I might buy for myself. We shall see.

Here is Daria Roselyn's Amazon buy link.

Meet Yasmin

Yasmin is from MGA's Dream Ella line.

Yasmin is one of three dolls by MGA Entertainment in the "Dream Ella" line. Ella and Aria are the other two dolls. See all three here.

Yasmin is presented in blister packaging.

Yasmin is illustrated on the cardboard insert of the packaging. "I am a doctor" is written on the lower portion.

The back of the package reads, "Meet Aria, Yasmin, and Ella, three best friends that can be anything they dream!" 

11-1/2 inch Yasmin is a doctor dressed in a pink satin top, white leggings, and white platform-soled sneakers that accommodate her high-heel feet. She has a soft plastic gray stethoscope. 

Yasmin's legs are slightly bowed. The doll's right foot curves in some, which is probably a manufacturer's flaw. The soft vinyl of the legs and feet makes repositioning possible.

Slightly curved in foot

Yasmin's high-heel feet are much larger than Barbie's. She can wear Monster High shoes and shoes made to fit Integrity Toys Color Infusion Janay.

Yasmin has a crimped ponytail.

Yasmin's eyes are brown. She has texturized (it feels like Kanekalon), rooted black hair styled in a high ponytail, the ends of which are crimped and extend to the mid-thigh.

Redressing

I recently purchased this Fresh Fashion from a Walmart Superstore — a store I had not entered in months before this visit.

The Fresh Dolls fashion is paired with shoes made to fit Monster High dolls. I purchased several identical pairs of these black high heels several years ago. Some can be painted in different colors.

They fit her perfectly.

Yasmin tried on this Fresh Dolls dress with shoes made to fit Integrity Toys Color Infusion Janay. This dress is not very flattering on Yasmin, in my opinion. The sleeves are too long and it fits a little wide at the hips. I like it better on the doll she borrowed it from seen here.

In addition to the Fresh Dolls fashions, Yasmin tried on several different Sparkle Girlz fashions and one Barbie fashion. I was surprised that most Sparkle Girlz fashions fit Yasmin. She might become my Sparkle Girlz fashion muse. I have several Sparkle Girlz fashions that are still on the cards.

Yasmin looks cute in this one-piece top and shorts romper worn with her own shoes. The top is supposed to have a blouson fit, but Yasmin must be slightly taller than the Sparkle Girlz dolls.

The same fashion is worn with the Monster-High-size shoes.

I really like the overall look of this dress on Yasmin.

The top of this two-piece shorts set fits well. The shorts are a bit too low cut and expose Yasmin's mock panty-line.

I guess Yasmin's hips and derrière are wider/larger than Sparkle Girlz'. She can still wear this since her hair covers the back.

Wait, what? No, this isn't Yasmin. While going through my fashion doll clothing stash, I found this skirt for The Looks Barbie Model #2 to try on. She's wearing it now temporarily with her black catsuit, a new pair of silver earrings, and a pair of black mules.

Back to Yasmin's Redressing

This Sparkle Girlz coral dress is an okay fit.

Yasmin models a denim Barbie fashion. The pants are a bit wide at the hips on Yasmin.

Yasmin chose to wear the green partial sweater dress. I pierced her ears.

Using quilting pins inserted diagonally to avoid piercing the sides of her face, Yasmin's ears were pierced.

With the pins still in her ears but pulled down, I painted the light blue "studs" green to match Yasmin's dress. In this photo, after they were painted, the pins were allowed to dry before they were fully inserted. 

Yasmin is temporarily on display on my desk with similar-size dolls.

As a collector of Barbie clones and competitors, at $8.99 with Amazon Prime shipping, I added Dream Ella Yasmin to the mix. She's a "pretty" cheap fashion-doll thrill.
