より自然な言い方だと
私の姉貴は美人です。でも私はそうじゃない。
私の姉貴は可愛いです。でも私は違う。
- Japanese
I think your sentence "私の姉貴は綺麗です。でも私は綺麗じゃない." is right and very natural.
You can use ''けど".
But I think ''でも'' is better than ''けど".
- Japanese
yes. you can use けど for connecting the two sentences like this.
わたしの姉は綺麗だけどわたしは綺麗じゃない。
or
わたしの姉はきれいだが、わたしはそうじゃない。
わたしの姉はきれいなのにわたしはそうじゃない。etc.
