What look would you want to brand as your own? Could you print some pics from the internet of fashion that interests you and take them to a department store and have them help you put together a look? Ellen is cool, what about that look?

Thanks!
Actually, I noticed that I feel a bit resistant to dressing 'gay' even though I am. lol It is weird. I want to be myself, but then again, maybe not.
I feel super bad in clothes that are too feminine. Feel bad wearing clothes that look too male too. I'm afraid that if I do that, I'll also make a bad impression for job interviews. But it's more than that, I don't feel the need to do that anyway. It's just way more easy for me to still look a bit feminine in casual clothes'. I don't know whether I'm explaining this properly. It's just hard to explain really.
I wouldn't wear a shirt with a tie or a shirt with a sweater on top or even a polo shirt. Maybe it's just out of fear, I don't know.
But I've been looking online and there are some looks that I like. I hope I can try to come up with some inspiration when I go shopping.
Also, it's a very good idea to look for someone who can help me with my 'style'. Thanks!
My T always says I have a great style. I think I do, when it comes to my house and stuff I design, etc. But definitely not my clothes.
I already found some great leather shoes that I feel comfortable with (no heels) and a new leather bag. I'm up for the challenge!
