Welcome.
The NorthernBrewer.com deluxe starter kit is a good place to start.
I'd also recommend spending some time reading on the process. How to Brew by John Palmer is a popular book. I read and did about 3 months of homework before I ever started buying anything. By that point the first brew was fairly easy. Everybody is different and has their own process. This hobby is all about dialing your own in with the resources and level of effort you have available.
As far as what brew to start with, that's entirely up to you. The NB starter I mentioned comes with an ingredient kit, so maybe choose one of those. My first was a red ale.
Cheers
