So why is she inside? What keeps her there? There is a wistful look that hints that she wants to be outside, but we don't know why. The environment is more important than the subject in something like this. The idea is to see how the environment affects the subject (defines them) and how the subject interacts with their environment. We see the later, but not in a context that defines "why".

Model's face isn't well lit, and her expression is unflattering, halfway between rolling her eyes and cracking a smile.

You don't give us a clue as to why she's looking up. A little noisy and disorganized.

hmm..trying to get a sense of story here...the dead rose and her black clothing may indicate mourning or neglect. Hard to tell.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

An environmental portrait is a portrait executed in the subject's usual environment, such as in their home or workplace, and typically illuminates the subject's life and surroundings. The term is most frequently used of a genre of photography.
