Holly,

I too like this head study.

I have a comment regarding how her clothing relates to her skin.

The way this reads to me is that the dress, where it meets the skin, seems to be more a part of the skin, than laying on top it. This is especially true of the strap as it moves up on our right side.

If you will include some shading at certain logical places I think it might read a little better. A very simple matter to fix and can make a noticable difference.
