I'm kind of glad that your picture doesn't answer that question lol (judging by the eyebrow colour, I would guess no... lol).

Nice image for sure. Great facial expression.

If I wanted to be picky, on my laptop screen her head was a bit blown out, but it looks much better on my LED monitor.

I like the euphemism here. The platinum colored hair does suggest that the "carpet does not match the drapes". The face and pearls seem a little overexposed, which left harsh tones on other parts of the skin. I would to have liked to see a softer overall skin tone (a slight glassiaun blur would have worked well here.

I am sure you know this, but it seems her top half is overexposed while the bottom is under. There are a lot of washed out areas, which is a shame because it is a really nice composition.
(I'm guessing they do match, once she takes the wig off)

Really awesome framing, and I like the bright caught-by-paparazzi look. I love how comfortable she is with the camera - a bit Marilynesque. I agree with Joshua about shooting up the nose, though. She happens to have a cute one, but it's not generally a very flattering angle for anyone. Also, there is just a bit of an odd greenish tinge in the fur. Don't know if that is intentional or an unwanted byproduct of pp'ing.

One thing to be careful of when composing a portrait is to not shoot up the nose. It is unflattering and awkward to look at. The eyes appear dead with how they are open, or perhaps very sleepy. I would personally have them open a bit more. So same composition but bring the face forward so it is more straight on and open the eyes a bit more and I think this could be a very nice portrait.

I'm not big into portraits, but the lighting is definitely not right...Maybe from another angle. I do like the composure. I like the model and the pose.

Very evocative ... I think the under-saturated look works well, especially with the framing by the dark hair.

ETA: It looks like you may have used a ring-light/flash -- it makes the catchlights look a bit odd to me, though it could be intentional ...
