The black frame doesn't really add to the photo. This Lady is about delicacy on a unique scale; the heavy black frame makes her look frumpy and fat, not élégante and strangely toujours à la mode.
Continuing to look at this photo, PLEASE tell me it's a model/reproduction and NOT la Tour Eiffel en réalité.
Made me smile. I like the warm/cold light approach, though here, with this particular angle, I wonder that it doesn't serve to over-accentuate the rigidty of that choice. It has a sense of lacking detail that isn't solely down to the casting of the little model, either - it may be camera, or it may be processing, or it may be a non-tripod shot, or non-sharpening, but it hasn't got that clarity of fine detail, that immediacy.
