Working in Shapes for a Portrait

"Lauren" - In Progress III 
Oil on Canvas, 6"in sq., c. Catherine Vines
   
I am trying not to overwork this portrait. My strategy is to concentrate on the large shapes and work from there. 
Unfortunately I notice that among my large shapes I have moved the nose off-center. Remind you of anything?
I need to come up with a system to keep some reference marks until towards the end. At least, I think that's what I need. Any suggestions?
