I wouldn't change a thing about your facial expression and the angle of your head -- perfect. It's somewhat unsettled and curious but at the same time somewhat probing and challenging. Your wardrobe looks beautiful against your skin, and I like the way you use your forearms-- much like your expression-- simple, asking, not sure and yet comfortable. The wrists and hands I'm not too sure about, as it seems they are kind of just flopped there as a result of the arms. It's hard to give specific advice in this case, but maybe just pay attention to how your arms feel when you do this, and let your wrists and fingers continue that feedback consistently through the ends of your fingertips. If you feel it, it will come naturally.
I also like the way you twist your torso, not overly done but again giving a sense of probing. Good work. I'm not a big fan of processing in this case, but I guess it kind of works. It certainly makes your skin look beautiful, though the color tones seem off to me. A little too pink, in a bad way.
