Just wondering how many of the editing tips you find relevant. Looks like an intentionally well done portrait........8>)

An exquisite portrait of an extremely lovely young woman.

the grass in front of the model is a bit distracting.

A great image, but some stronger editing would really help this one, and bump it up a few points to a top image. (PM me if you want more hints)

She is incredibly beautiful. Great job capturing her with the soft neutral colors... she really shines. I think I would have saturated her eyes a bit more, but I'd be agraid of retouching any part of her. Great photo. Wish I could vote.

Cool portrait which could have been optimized a lot more. More sharpness in the face, yellow tones out of the skin via layer mask, slight lightening of the retinas and a very slight lightening of the eye whites (also per layer mask). The full focus is on the blade of grass in the foreground, I would have blurred that a tad, it kind of pulls from your model.
