for me, the balance isn't a glaring problem, it looks fine if you change the pose of the feet.

now, poses and anatomy aside, I'll talk about clusters and colors

the colors are ok in most of the case, but the dark yellow in the hair melts with her skin (this is frequent when pixelling blonde people). The genesis-y non-white also kinda lowers contrast too, so I suggest using pure white, or at least a lighter tone, for eyes/highlights/clothing.

the light purple on her hat are scribbled, leaving jaggies and some stray pixels, and doesn't show depth. the dress is really banded, with no representation of volume. Those tiny lines in her apron and skirt doesn't really represent those skirt curves either. It is a complicated shape, but imagine it simplified, like a wireframe model: a skirt is roughly a cone shape, so shade using that as model, adding more details as you go.

a last tip: her face needs to pop out. at the moment, it kinda mixes with everything imo. it needs to pop out, it's the most expressive part of the body, aside from posing. Always give the face an extra effort, with eyes, nose, mouth, eyebrows etc. because if you draw a godly body and make a shitty face, your drawing will be shit.
