In my opinion the prettiest Venus doll of them all, Ghoul's Night Out Venus :) All ready for a night on the tiles with her ghoul friends :D
Appearance:
I was so excited about this doll because I am a total sucker for dolls in pretty dresses (like the Ever After High dolls) and although Venus is my favourite, she rarely dresses like this :)
I absolutely LOVE Venus's hair on this doll! She's styled it up with a cute poof into a ponytail, similar to her 'Make a Splash' doll but this time Venus's hair is primarily pink :) She's also left the shaven half of her head pink and I'm glad, she looks so glamorous! Because her hair is done up, it falls just to the middle of her back.
For her night out, venus has chosen hot pink lipstick and hot pink eye shadow. She wears three rose-shaped earrings in her right ear and her vine earring in her left ear.
Venus wears a lovely one-armed dress which has a lovely sparkly, black fabric over the arm and chest. The corset-style body piece is a hot pink, silky fabric with a thorny vine pattern on it. There are two skirt parts tho the dress, the first being the same black, sparkly fabric that was used for the top and underneath that is the lovely pink fabric which has been fashioned into cute ruffles.
Venus also wears cute sparkly, black legwarmers which I think is a unique choice, but a good one!
Venus's shes are bright green, dotted with pink roses. The heel has a twisty vine feel to it (they look very dangerous!!)
Accessories:
Venus comes with a darling rose purse, her green belt (that is becoming somewhat signature for her) and her iCoffin. I was sceptical about her belt for a log time but it is actually starting to grow on me now! I adore her purse and I think it was awesome how all four girls had their own iCoffin - I would LOVE to see the selfies they take!
I like:
EVERYTHING!
I dislike:
NOTHING!!

Thanks for sharing <3
In January 2013 the Make a Splash line was released! I was so hyped because it seemed as though Venus was becoming a more popular character and I just couldn't wait to see more Venus dolls :)
The Make a Splash line (which isn't actually officially named the 'Make a Splash' line, but also doesn't have an official name - Read more here!) originally featured Draculaura, Lagoona and Venus (of course). I got my Venus doll for my birthday this year from my boyfriend :)
Appearance:
Straight away in comparison to the other girls' swim suits, you can see that Venus's is much more subtle, just a simple one-piece, no frills or fancy designs. I think the most OTT thing about her outfit is the neck piece which, let's face it, is not the most bizarre thing any of the Monster High cast has ever wore :P
So, hey, notice anything different about the two dolls above? Ah, well the Venus on the right was the 'Make a Splash' Venus that was originally released but had to be re-produced because they used the wrong makeup! Yes! As you can see on the picture on the right, Venus is wearing her original pink eyeshadow and red lipstick. The Venus on the left is the one most of us know and love - Green eyeshadow, pink lips and lighter eyebrows. The Venus on the right is now referred to as a variant.
There were only a few 'original' Make a Splash Venus dolls made before Mattel realised their mistake and so I REALLY want one in my collection! So if you know anyone selling one BOXED, please let me know!
Anyway on to the rest of the doll...
Venus supports a stylish yet practical hairstyle - A long, side ponytail with a poof so it's not in her way while she's swimming / sunbathing.
I LOVE those shades too, they're very Venus - Green with teeth at the top! Her one-piece also fits with her theme and has a bold zigzag design in pink, black, white and green. I'm not a fan of the neckline, however, the shape of it looks as though it should belong to Cleo or Nefera de Nile as in my opinion it has a slight Egyptian feel to it...
Venus goes for pink, wedged, open-toe sandals (as do all of the three original 'Make a Splash' girls) which are decorated with a teeth design on the wedge and pink vines for straps.
Accessories:
Venus also comes with her beach bag - Pink with fang decoration (not the one in the above picture, that's actually Draculaura's), and a towel which matches her swim suit. 'Make a Splash' Venus does not wear any earrings but still comes with her removable arm and leg vines.
I like:
The hair
The makeup (of the non-variant)
The majority of the swimsuit
The accessories
I dislike:
The neckline of the swimsuit
