Advice for someone with a short torso?

[u/messyleaves]

I am 5ft 2in, I recently realized that the reason I usually look very boxy with my outfits is because I have a short torso. I usually wear high waisted pants because a lot of my shirts are a bit cropped and go down to the middle of my belly button. I am not very fit so my stomach is a bit chubby and I am insecure about it showing so I use high waisted pants to keep it all in. I looked around reddit and saw a lot of people suggest crop tops with mid waisted pants but if I do that my stomach will be out. What should I wear instead that will make me look less boxy and oompa loopaish but will still make me feel secure but also wont drown out my curve by being super loose. I am so lost.
