Overall, I like the series. Vassanta is obviously a great model. You create a challenge by shooting into the window light. There doesn't appear to be any reflectors on her. Currently, she is in shadow...I would have put more light on her. There is a journalistic feel to these shots right now, which I find attractive. With that said, I would consider some skin touchup. Your other work in your port goes a little too far in skin retouching, in my opinion. So don't take it that far, just simple touchups. I'm on the fence regarding color treatment. Either the colors need to be enhanced more or they need to be eliminated and experimented with in black and white. Her skin tones seem very "orangey". If you decide to keep in color, I'd pull back the saturation in her skin tones.

This series has potential, but it's not there yet.
