Such a thing as stylish when short with big tum?

[Spreadingthinly]

I’ve been in a rut of wearing skinny or slim jeans with loose longer tops to hide my very large post 3 c sections mum tum (rest of me is ok- I go to the gym and my legs and arms are quite toned, plus I’ve lost about 1.5 stone, still some more to go but I’m 5’2”, 10 1/2 stone, fair complexion for context. It’s the middle of me that’s the issue). It’s not exactly a glamorous look and I’d love to look more put together. I tend to wear dresses when I can as they seem most flattering. But I’m going skiing with a group of very stylish ladies and will need trousers/ tops. Any ideas for styles of jeans/ tops that are disguise tummies but look stylish? I’m happy to splurge. I quite like this top from Wyse but again it’s a shirt and I hate tucking things in (which would make it smarter on most people) as it never looks nice on me and seems to accentuate my tummy area. https://www.wyselondon.com/products/parker-top-gold-metallic

I would appreciate any advice or suggestions. Thank you!

That top is lovely!
If you’re planning on losing more weight, you might not want to spend too much on trousers etc., so spend the cash on the tops, which are much more on view anyway.
I’ve got some flared cords from M&S which make my very short legs look longer - I wore them to a wedding.

Embrace the current trend of wide jeans and a shorter top. It does seem odd at first but I can guarantee it will give you a smarter look. Add a belt and bingo. You create more interest in the front and it detracts from your middle.

Thanks both for your responses! Will mull things over.
