Comment by L1:
This is a nice portrait...she seems a bit close to the background, creating some shadowing/halo looking effect around her shoulders and neck. I understand that you were probably going for a soft focus look, which is great, but it is just a touch too soft for my taste around her eyes, which I think should appear sharper and more detailed. It works well for the rest of the portrait, however. Very good effort. :o)

Looks like you've achieved the softness effect with a slight out of focus lens, but I think you would have been better off with a lens diffusing filter

whole shot seems blurry ?

Model's expressive eyes and mouth capture interest. Do facial and body skin tones mismatch a little? Softness is a little distracting. Would be better if the top of her head were entirely in frame.

The soft focus blurs too much in my opinion

Soft focus isn't my personal favorite for portraits, but this is a good shot anyway. It might help the effect a little if the background had little more blur relative to the subject.
