I like this very much! Since it is in the critique gallery one suggestion: By cutting the image on the top, a little above the white pillow, I think it can be improved. The smaller black area better fits to the "high key" flavour of the image and the slightly distracting lamp(?) at the upper right corner is removed.

That's a good point. I'd also be tempted to crop even further. At the top where the sheet is a separate "hump", I'd crop that there so that the contour of the shoulder, the contour of her hip and the contour of the sheet/comforter are the same. The secondary contour on top of that is distracting and unattractive compared to the softness of the other three. I'd also toy with "highkeying" the bottom of the picture to match closer to the rest and keep the soft white more consistent. That would involve the hair and the blanket/sheet. I'm not positive it would work but I'd attempt it to see.
