Like Yochanan, I have a lot of black t-shirts and I love plaid pants. Most of my shirts are unisex tshirts, but I do own and wear babydolls and shirts from the mens' clothing section (size medium or small men's fits me pretty well!) I do have some colorful shirts, mostly green (my fav color), some red, some blue and a couple purple.

I've recently acquired a taste for skirts and (some) dresses though catching me in those is pretty rare and usually offset with chunky shoes or boots, which I love. My current fav shoes are some brown low-tops from Simple Shoes (comfy as all get-out).

Pants are usually boot cut or straight-leg (women's). I do borrow my boyfriend's jeans sometimes though ... he never seems to mind, lol. I've got a lot of men's lounge pants (but I don't wear them out of the house, cause I think that looks lazy) and I love comfy boxers as homewear :)

Basically I go for comfort first, looks second.

I guess I'd call my look "female-bodied person trying to look male but only succeeding in looking androgynous because of his love of shiny accessories".
I think that sounds like me, except I'm not conciously trying to look male. :p

I noticed that people would stare at me in a confused manner early on. Many can't decide whether to call me sir or ma'am and just avoid it.
Oh, I generally blue jeans, a shirt and often a hoodi

"I wear androgynous clothing from other side but still look like birth gender"

Specifically: my birth gender is male and I wear t-shirts, jumpers, jeans sort of thing, but they're from the women's side of the store, so that the colours, designs or cut are slightly different. It's cross-dressing, while allowing people to read you in your birth gender.

Another term is "stealth drag" :)

I tend to wear all-cotton oxford cloth button-down shirts in solid pastels (including lots of pink), washable slacks in dark or medium blue or brown, sized solid blue, black or brown cotton socks, and suede black slipons. I wear neither jewelry nor watch. My beard is full. My long hair is worn in a pony tail, bound with a black elastic. I carry a brown canvas purse on shoulder strap.

My wardrobe has a variety of other clothes, colors, and patterns I wear from time to time. For instance, to move packages at UPS, I wear Sears carpenter jeans, T-shirts in a wide variety of solid colors, and ankle-high work boots. Away from home, I wear a solid teal nightshirt to bed (nothing at home). There are no skirts or dresses in my closet because I don't like the way they look on my body, though I have learned to tolerate shorts in the summer.

Indeed it was.  Tim Curry and Tony Todd (I think that's his name...he played Candyman) played the only characters that really scared me.

Really, I wear whatever catches my eye. Mostly just small tshirts and tighter fitting guys jeans and a hoodie. Some people say its a bit emo looking, but I've been rocking this look since the 90s, so emo co-opted my style. Bastards!

I think 'emo' has evolved because bands that I grew up calling emo are no longer the same sort of bands that are called emo now...
