I also think it could be useful to ask yourself: "What about her clothes makes me see her as a girl? How is that differeny than what I wear?" when seeing what cis girls are wearing.

I don't know anything about fashion but what about opening your favourite JRPG character designer and hit random?
I’ve got two modes of fashion: low-key android vibes, and god-slaying protagonist vibes.
Were I ever to just dress up in average clothes, my friends would be gobsmacked.
Edit: I should prolly back these claims up.

yay pics!! I love that first one 😍
Oh yeah, I think you've seen me wearing the bottom outfit before.
yes, and the second one as well - I like your style!
This is a good start but may not be maintainable in the long run
Yeah, too many belts.
watching old episodes of What Not To Wear can be super helpful. They get nicer in the later seasons too it's difficult not to be put off a little by the gimmick but if you can stomach it the fashion advice specifically about fitting clothes to your body type is timeless and invaluable
Yeah, this is the way. I like to browse pinterest too, although that tends to throw up some more "out there" ideas.
One thing to bear in mind as you build a wardrobe is whether the items you are adding will work with your existing clothes as an outfit. And of course that works as a source of inspiration too.
Might just be my current mental mood, but lately I feel like nothing I've been trying on has been right. Doesn't help that I've got the physique of a power lifter
Girl, get some tights. My quadzilla gravel cyclist legs look like thick thighs saving lives in a pair of yoga pants. Get the ones with the v cross at the abdomen and look like a lower body goddess. Top it off with a nice longline sports bra or a crop top and throw a camp wrap or something over your shoulders. Own that body you built and make it look good for you!
Turns out if you were a band shirt, jeans, and hoodie type you just need to replace the jeans with a midi or maxi skirt and it still works!
