Hey MissMisa!
well, main thing that I dislike about this picture isn't something that's wrong at all. Basically I think she's too overweight. There's obviously nothing wrong with that, and I don't know if that's what you were going for? But most people (including myself) find that unappealing. And appeal means a lot in art.
heres some tips: you can trace your character like I did there, so that you can see what the shape of the body looks like. With all the clothing and accessories on top it's sometimes hard to see if the anatomy is right or not. Once you are happy with the shape of the body, THEN move on to the clothes.
Balance! even when sitting down characters must be balanced. Your character is sitting right on the edge of the seat, and with her feet in the air like that, a lot of her weight is in front of her. She would probably fall off the chair if she sat like that.
so you can: move her back to the center of the seat, or move her legs so that her feet are on the floor. That way she has the support of being grounded.
hmmmm, that's about all I can think of really. Practice practice practice (I hate that saying, but it's true)
oh and sorry for always drawing these generic looking anime characters for the critiques lol, I can't help it, It's just my style.
EDIT: I couldn't draw wings if my life depended on it.

I love your artwork style. I think her belly button may be a little too big and the bottom of her legs a little too thin, but I think that's part of the style you are going for and it doesn't look unbalanced or anything. Great work, great shading

Thank you very much
the thin legs are intentional, but the giant belly button wasn't. oops! thanks for pointing it out.
