Those with shorter torsos, where are you buying tops??
I've got long limbs, a shortish torso, hips and boobs, though I'm a size 8 and my waist is quite small. I feel like it's near impossible to style myself. Last year I got a job where I have to dress smartish and it's so hard. Dresses that go in at the waist look best, but I'm a trouser person really. I just want to wear nice trousers and a shirt or top, but most tops swamp me so I have no shape whatsoever, I just look like a huge box from my shoulders to my hips, or if they're tight they bunch up over the waist area of the trousers. But the tuck the shirt/top in look doesn't work either as my torso is so short that I'm all legs in a very unbalanced way (plus, there's so much bloody material that needs stuffing in that it ruins any silhouette). I'm assuming the high waist look is not my friend, but all trousers seem high waisted atm (and honestly, they look lovely when I'm in a bra, it's the moment the enormous tops and shirts go on that it all goes wrong).
An example of a rare top that works because it's slightly cropped is https://www.marksandspencer.com/cotton-rich-boucle-slim-fit-knitted-top/p/clp60783835?color=CREAM#intid=pid_pg1pip48g4r6c3 though it's actually a bit scratchy and x small is still a size too big, so I must be able to do better.
Any gems fellow no-torso people have found would be much appreciated! Or style tips for this shape in general.
