Hey Stace, I think your composition could do with a bit of work. Most of your focal points are closer to the edges of the image. I agree with the previous comment about lighting. I love the light on her at the moment, but it doesn't quite fit what you are trying to do.
Here's a Paintover: I cropped and jiggled them around in the frame. Something still bothers me about it, but I think it works better. Also added more impact to the lighting and enhanced the blues to give the feeling of cold and to contrast against her. I think it still maybe a bit too much because It still feels a bit overdone for me but the gist is there..hope that helps.
