It might be my eyes or my VDU screen but the near eye looks sharp and the far one less so. This might be deliberate of course but I think it better if both eyes are sharp. You might want to check on DoF
 
A few things I like here and a few I'd probably try to improve. I love her face, a nice looking model. The overall look is interesting and I like her pose. Not a fan of middle gray backgrounds as they are more suited for fashion. The "props" are fun but the cigarette should be lit and slightly burned down to not look like it was just handed to her as a prop. I like the hat, actually always loved these hats, but although the red is a stunner, I actually think this whole look may have more gravitas or strength in black and white and darken the background in printing as well. So while I like a lot about this, it looks like an exercise in cute props instead of what it could look like, a character study of a pretty "French" girl. Oh and a little trick of getting nicer eyes when using flash is having the room not too dark, because in a dark room the iris of the eyes open up and you get less nice visible eye colors.
 
While the above is good advice, I really like this. The colors are great, the pose good, and if only one eye is super sharp, it should be the near one, which it is.
