Gsinico, The first one has fine lighting on her back. A little more light on the face might be better. Also, if the wall decoration can be removed, it would improve the background. Her left arm is well posed, the right arm less so. A straight elbow viewed from the back shows wrinkles. Bending the arm can cure this.

I prefer the second pose. It is graceful. Experiment with the position of the head next time you try it. With direct eye contact the expression becomes important. Few models have enough experience to do perfect expressions on demand. If the light permits instant exposures, try to capture her in relaxed and natural expressions. This works best when an enjoyable relationship between model and photographer seems more important at the moment than the photo shoot.

Thanks, I agree with your suggestion, some critics I did mt self (decoration cannot be eliminated, the wrinkles...) It is a positive thing to talk about those stuffs.

Nice ad usual from you, could you tell something about the light you used in those last ones no painted with light?

yes - very simple (I like that):

dark background - one light from a soft angle in front of her - a second light from behind (opposite side) to enhance the soft glow.

That's about it..
