 So, besides asking for critiques, I was going to ask everyone for a little help. I can't really decide what color scheme to go with for this picture. Everything I come up with doesn't seem to fit it right. If you have any ideas, let me know. I'm open to suggestions 3nodding

I'm seeing a tan/brown, blue, and white color scheme, with her skin having a tan/dark color and blue/white for most of her clothes and accessories.
But, a good rule of thumb is to try limit the number of base colors you have to 5 or less (3 is the best), and without having it jump around too much. Black and white are two colors that could go with almost any color, brown also works fine with most colors as well.

I'm no expert on breasts, but I think they should sorta "meet" around the center of the chest and have more of a circular shape. I think I would have put those calf muscles on the insides rather than the outsides since the feet are facing outwards and those muscles are beind the leg as far as I know... The thighs have an odd shape. I think they should just sorta keep going up rather than having a noticeably lump like that for a muscle, but I don't know much about that.
The eyes kinda seem like they're facing outwards... I noticed that a lot in the manga Tsubasa Chronicle, though, and when I looked at real eyes, it seemed like they were also sorta "outward" like that a bit... maybe it just seems that way due to how the eye gets narrower on the outside. Anyhow, I think it looks weird, but maybe that's just my preference.
As for colours, I guess the hair, ears, and tail would probably be the same colour. I'd say the ears and tail sorta resemble a fox's, so I'd make them orange or something, but you could pick any colour since it's a fantasy character. I'd maybe make the clothes red with the trim being white; the buttons, hair thing, and bracelet could be gold/yellow. Colour it however you want to, though.

It depends on what her skin tone is.
If she is fair I'd say clothing in white blue and deeper blue.
I'd do her hair a dark chocolate brown (including ears and tail)
If she's mid tones
I can see forest greens,tans, and deep brown.
Her hair as a amber brown.
If she's dark tone.
White, tan and gemmy blue.
Herhair wouldbe jet black.

Thanks so much for the ideas. It's definitely given me a lot to think about. I also didn't notice the details that seemed wrong, so thank you for helping. I'll definitely try to correct it xd
