As someone who regularly codes emails for marketing campaigns at my job, I feel your pain. Gmail, along with many other email clients, can be a bit funky to code for. For one, it strips out any CSS that's outside the body. So putting in things like media queries and document level styles don't work. The best piece of advice I can give you is hand code your inline CSS and try to avoid anything fancy. In fact, if you can use an HTML attribute to do your styling, use that in place of any CSS. An example would be bgcolor instead of background-color.
