I was bored and draw-y, so here's a redline for you!
Being the first to admit I'm no expert on anatomy, listen to every single word I say without questioning me (no but really i'm just highlighting some points and you should look up references based on the problem areas because firsthand research is the best kind). ALRIGHT!
Allowing for how long the legs are (because i'm like that too), the construction could use a bit of improvement. First, think about placement. The way her left (our right) leg is jutting out suggests (to me at least) that it should be pointing outward, otherwise I feel a bit like she's going to fall over.
Then think about the separate parts of the leg and how they relate to eachother. The upper leg tapers into the knee, and doesn't seem to end until the bottom of it. The knee, at its simplest, is pretty much a ball and tends to bulge out as such in the front, especially when the leg is straightened.The lower leg, meanwhile, connects at the bottom of the knee in the front and the back of it in the back. The front goes straight down, sometimes almost appearing to curve inwards, while the back of it bulges out before tapering in almost dramatically at the ankle.
The foot deserves more consideration as well, I mean it gets walked all over all the time and doesn't say a thing (sorry)! The doodle on the pic shows the relation between the parts well enough, I think. Also, in heels the ankle follows the sole damn near in a straight line to the ball, so the heel juts out more significantly than usual.
And though I didn't take the liberty to show this in the drawing, imitating the pose in the mirror shows that it's fairly uncomfortable, especially on tiptoes, to hold it without straining a muscle more than it needs to. A good habit, when convenient, is to do poses in a mirror BEFORE starting, to make sure it's plausible and to pick your line of action and support leg.
Also, booby connects at armpit uvu (Sorry for length but I hope it helps!)
