I like the colored one Angelo. Very interesting composition.

I would maybe have changed the aspect a bit to have her a bit more to left in the pic (so she's got more open space in the direction her body is facing).

Like the shot. Would crop more on the top and right...putting her eyes on the 1/3 line and her body closer to the right.

You'd still have a lot of the flower...but would increase her interest in the photo.

Like your 'model', Angelo.
I always try to make about 50-100 shots in different poses with different backgrounds - to choose from later...
In this case, I think I'd recomment her to stand sideways and turn her head to the camera ....
... something like... (sorry for posting here...)

Such poses makes one look narrower (sorry for my English).
I like color version much more.
As for the composition - try different crops - your eyes will tell you when you'll get the right crop...
And in the end. I sometimes get something I dont know what to do with... (I mean shots).
In this case I use optikvervelabs filters in PS (www.optikvervelabs.com - free download). They realy help me!
Good work!
Spasibo,
Yuri
