I like the color choices, for the most part. However, the fact that Laurana's clothing and the background both contain the same shade of green is a bit off-putting. It makes the picture kind of flat, visually.
Also, I think the straps and belt of Laurana's outfit are really nice details, and they add a lot of exciting, yet subtle, visual interest. The main concern I have is that I'm somewhat confused by the way the fabric drapes around her legs and hips. I can't tell if it's meant to be a dress with a skirt or a jumpsuit with legs.
The way you have her posed makes her appear as if she is listening to/looking at someone. Based on the smile on her face, it seems to be a friendly encounter. If you choose to work on this more, it would be cool to have some more clues* about the significance of this moment you've captured here.
(*Clues in her facial expression and/or her body language and/or in the scenery and/or props).
Overall, a pleasant picture to look at.

Thank you so much for the crit! I really appreciate it. Solid stuff for me to keep in mind! 
Of late, I've been working on improving poses and expressions, and to a lesser extent, hair; clothing is next on my list for focused improvement!

Thank you! If I can get my tablet working again, I might just return to this. If not, I'm not likely to lose interest in DL or Laurana anytime soon, so like as not there'll be more eventually.
