In the pic I’m wearing a composite of my crowns. I’ve gone back and forth with the dentist several times and this is what we came up with. I still think they could be a bit bigger, or perhaps just longer. I don’t want them to look fake either, want the teeth to have ‘character’. Honestly, I’m not even sure at the moment. I’ve been looking at this for too long. What do you think?

The best treatment option is braces treatment to express proper torque of the upper anterior. I can see chipping of teeth also started, so bite correction is needed in your case. I advise veneers followed by braces / aligners.
That is the issue with the crown. I think due to some error during cementation (if the crown is prepared properly in the lab). Normally that results in a gap in the cervical area and no proper proximal contacts.
Try looking at the Lumen shade guide and select A1 or D2. Both of these are brighter natural shades but it depends on your complexion and personal taste. Remember, everyone sees color slightly differently, but in the end, the only person you have to really please is yourself.
