Does this mix of siding look ok? Lap and shake siding question

Does this mix of siding look ok? We were originally going to open up our porch and do a spindle railing, but we decided to keep the pony wall for privacy. The debate is how to transition siding styles. The first floor is going to be James Hardie 7" lap siding smooth, and the second straight edge shake.

Because we're going for the mitered corner look, we're strongly considering keeping the existing cedar shake (which exists behind the vinyl siding) we have on the front porch and just continuing the lap siding where the plan originally was but does it look too choppy?
