The face and expression are really nice! I think the reason is feels wrong is because of your perspective. Even if you aren't drawing a background you still have to keep perspective in mind! Because a character still exists in 3d space. For this piece, when we look at her upper body it looks like we are looking DOWN on her which means the horizon line is ABOVE her. But when we look at her right arm, we are seeing the underside of the palm and the wrist which implies the horizon line is BELOW and we are looking UP at her arm. With the legs it looks like the horizon line lands right on the hips. This is because the pelvis naturally tilts forward slightly. So even though your line followings the curve of the hips swoops downward, it's not drastic enough to follow the perspective established by the upper body. Instead of looking at the legs as above or below it looks like we're looks at them straight on. To avoid this in the future make sure you know where your horizon line is! Is it above, below, or straight through your character? I've done a lot of perspective critiques that you can find by clicking on my profile if you want to see me go more in depth about it. I also recommend watching Kim Jung Gi's lectures on perspective. Specifically "Importance of Eye Level in Anatomy & Buildings Art Lesson (From Kim Jung Gi)" uploaded by Mike Bop on youtube. I hope this helps!
