Highlight your strengths. If you are self-conscious about your bottom, pair a flirtier slim-fitting top and jewelry that will accentuate your shoulders, torso and waist with a more understated bottom to draw attention to your upper half. A skirt that hits just-above-the-knee and tights in rich neutral tones are a sophisticated choice that will compliment your legs, especially when worn with heels. When shopping for jeans, stick with straight-leg cuts which tend to be more flattering on your body type and will make your legs look longer.

Straight leg low waisted jeans- but only just below the belly button, not so low that you muffin top. Do not go for tapered or "skinny" jeans- stay with straight leg and boot cut for all of your pants. Skirts should hit just below the knee. Tops should be fitted, but not snug. Good luck with the diet and exercise. Also- Old Navy is a good place for you to shop- they have good jeans for your figure and you can get stylish clothes without spending too much since you are dieting to get smaller.

blazers are and excellent way to define a waist without any effort. Make sure they are "nipped" in at the waist or have and hour glass figure on their own. No boxy cuts. Stay away from just draping yourself in oversized clothes. You can also do an a-line skirt, which will put some balance between your shoulders and the bottom hem line, creating a waist.

theres alot of shirts and shirt dresses in the shops right now with belts or ties round the waist -- having these will accentuate your waistline and make the most of ur curves. also try to avoid baggy tops or jackets and wear things that are fitted. hope this helps hunnie xxx

Wrap dresses, A-line skirts and low-rise pants give the appearance of a more defined waist.

I wear tops that are tight round the boobs, so your boobs look bag, but below that it's baggy, It means it hides my belly but may show a beely for someone else as you can't tell if there is a waist there or not.
Big Belts are great aswell.

try long tunics and shirts with belts at the waist. also add more cropped tops to your wardrobe, like little cardigans
i happen to like empire-cuts but i'm not sure if they give you a waist
