With her dark, mysterious eyes

Can one write

a. He wouldn't fail to notice her with her long black hair.
b. He was stunned by her with her dark, mysterious eyes.


c. With her dark, mysterious eyes, the studio hired her immediately for the role.
d. The studio hired her immediately for the role with her dark, mysterious eyes.
e. The studio hired her immediately for the role, with her dark, mysterious eyes.
?

(d) doesn't sound right to me and in (e) the part after the comma sounds like an afterthought.


Many thanks.

Thank you so much!

Would you say that 'with her long black hair' and 'with her dark, mysterious eyes' express a cause here or merely describe her?

Many thanks.
