Need exterior paint color placement advice please!

We bought a 120 year old row home and have been putting in work. First picture is ours… the brownish one with the terrible awning. We are having it painted next month and removing the awning and I’m going crazy with paint color placement. I absolutely love the colors of the house in the second picture. Usually I like white moulding but I saw this house and fell in love with the off white body and darker moulding. But when we got our new windows a few months ago, the frame is larger than the brick moulding above. Which drives me crazy but it’s too late to fix. Any advice on how to balance out the window frames? Should we paint the frames the same color as the body of the house? Would it look better to stick with white moulding and keep the frames pure white? Would colors similar to the second picture work? Help! Thank you!
