Hmm! Seems to need a re shoot to play with lighting. Personally I prefer a little detail / graduation in the background. The eyes seem a little soft and I might consider removing or softening the mole on her chin. I haven't had the time to invest in Photoshop much, so do very little PP work right now - that's for the future when I have time - but here's a very quick and dirty edit.
