Smart casual tops for big tummy

I’m a classic apple. My hips and thighs are a size 12-14 but my boobs are two sizes bigger and I have a jelly belly to match. Whatever weight I am I hold the same shape.

Hit me with your best top ideas? I work in an office but a casual one. I generally need something with a bit of stretch; otherwise it has to be so big to get over my boobs it’s a tent lower down...

I've found kimono tops or bat wing tops really hide my tummy but not the massive flappy arm tops where you can see through the side.

The fabric sort of softly gathers at hip level disguising my cultivated fat!

Oh that’s interesting.
My arms aren’t bad so batwing tops have always scared me off a bit but I’ll take a look.

I always go back to Phase Eight ‘Becca’ tops. They do the style in jumpers and jersey. Super flattering for apples 🍏
