I don't think they go together. If you had an old fashioned bottle of milk, that would have been better. The picture itself is perfect. And the model is adorable.
I like it because its definitely not a "comfortable" photo. The only thing I'm distracted by is the running shoe. I also think it would be cool if her eyes were altered to be blue.
i don't normally suggest re-crops but in this case, i felt that the shoes were just another subject pulling me away from her face and the bottle-tried a square crop instead-hope you don't mind-if so, i can easily delete it
i love her face/expression and the little tilt to her head-it's a cute shot-easily usable for stock if you wanted to
Very cute. I didn't see it before the eyes were blue but they do work nicely with the image. I really like the shoes BTW and the other crop doesn't work for me either.
It is a not so "comfortable" image because I think most of us don't approve of drinking for kids but something catchy like "Not til you're 21" would make it more acceptable. I'm sure it was not the intent though.
Also I hope you got other images without the bottle.
I love it, keep the bottle and throw in a glass with 3 cubes of ice on the side...

No offense intended, but you mean us here in the US (including myself)... because the rest of the world, as I know it, has an age limit of 16-18 or none at all, and most of those countries that have it don't really follow it by culture. I understand the controversy this may create on cultural social conflict, but we must not be ethnocentric on any matter. Peace and Jah bless...
Fabulous shot, Fjalke. I love the processing, and the blue eyes definitely bring her face into context with the rest of the picture. For me, the image is adorable and funny. The sneakers and the vodka and her age make for a humorous contrast. Thanks for sharing.
Wow, overall, excellent. Great lighting, color, pose. White was a perfect choice for the background. I don't know, I'm back and forth about the bottle of booze. I just want to make sure I separate my personal choice of 'no drinking' and commenting on great photography. Now those gyms...I absolute-ly love the gyms.

+1, being diplomatic -- I will go one step further. The choice of an Absolut bottle for this image is crude and juvenile. As artistic expression this image is obvious and sophomoric, and as anything else it is reprehensible.
