Two flash setup: Canon 430ex bounced into an umbrella and a Canon 420ex with an omnibounce on it pointing directly at subject for fill (fill light can be seen in glasses). I think the flash ratios were 6:1

Would have been better for me had she been holding the glasses in her hand (or possibly with one of the ear-pieces in her teeth) rather than wearing them. There's a lot of glare from the lighting across the top and lenses of the glasses.
Also, have a care for the background - the light colored bit at the top right is distracting.
I like the softer focus, and the pose is ok (except for the note about the glasses). I like that you've been able to preserve her skin tones and hair-color well (not always easy to do with redheads).
Note: The comments given are either my honest opinion, or just meant to be humorous (maybe that's one and the same). They didn't cost you anything so feel free to disregard. ;-)
