what about these kind of dress tops - they are quite square shaped so hide the lumps and bumps that are underneath and if you wore perhaps some skinny jeans or straigh legged trousers and heels then you would be showing off a more flattering area

I have tried the dress tops but I can never find a nice trendy one in my size as I am only in my 20s and when I do find one they make me look like a big beach ball.

One trick is to wear a fine knit sweater layered over a tight t-shirt without ever having the need to remove the sweater. A v-necked sweater over a crew-neck t-shirt in contrasting colors can look good.
Buy a longer fitting tee so that you get to see the bottom of it under the bottom of the jumper, this layered look will give the illusion of height thereby making you appear taller and slimmer. There should be a little "give" in the sweater so that instead of hugging your belly, it falls in soft creases around your middle.
Another trick which works well in the summer is to wear a loose fitting summer shirt - linen is good - left un-tucked over a pair of casual trousers.
Again, don't buy a size three times bigger than the size you actually need, as this will make you look bulky. Buy a size that leaves a bit of room so the shirt softly falls over your belly, and, if it's linen, again the material will create natural creases that will help disguise your girth.

I thought you were male!! For some reason I thought you were just asking women for advice and laughed out loud at the thought of you in a floaty top

the best thing to do fabemmy, is to grab some girly mates and spend the afternoon trying tons of clothes on at the shops. try clothes on you would normally avoid.
