Open your image, crop, scale, inflate...forget that last one.
Duplicate the base layer, add a layer of #f6bfc7, and set it on Value (@ 100%), merge down into the duplicated layer, set the merged layer on Soft Light at 100%.
Now, add two layers, fill them with #f6dcdc and #dcedf6, and set them both on Burn at 50%.
Add three layers of #000d2f and set them on Screen (@ 100%), Screen (@ 65%) and Subtract (@ 100%).
Flatten all the layers.
Sharpen your image.
Go to Colors>Color Balance:
Shadows: +4, 0, 0
Midtones: 0, +6, 0
Highlights: -5, +7, +10
Click 'ok'.
Time for textures!
Set all of these on Screen, and move them to wherever you think they look the bestest.

Duplicate that layer, go to Colors>Channel Mixer.

Green: -15, 115, 0

Click 'ok'.
Set that layer on Screen at 85%.
Add a layer of #f6bfc7 on Burn @ 45%.
Add a layer of #dcedf6 on Burn @75%.
Add a blank fill layer, and paint over her cardigan with #2f3e17 and set it on Soft Light at 100%.
