The almost recognizable objects distract, but the character of the subject brings it off. If only she could have paid some attention to the camera!

I'm on thin ice here, but I would say that this has too much of a snapshot to really work as a portrait. Technically it is quite good (apart from the background), but I would have wanted eye contact with the model. Given that, this could have been really good.
A portrait without eye contact would only work, I think, if it was part of the story told. A picture of someone following some action that I am not aware of or "part of" ends up a snapshot. (I've got a whole bunch of them myself, and none of them is any good...)

Hum. I wonder what she is looking at, thinking about... certainly not the camera.
