Working your stomach will eventually help the size and the way it looks, once you lose the fat.
I think we may have similar body types. I've got great legs - long, muscular, defined, - and am fine with my entire body EXCEPT the very soft belly! It seems unfair, but I have resigned to the idea that the rest of me is going to have to get REALLY fatless before my stomach is as flat as I would like.
The only advice is to lose the fat. I know how frustrating that sounds. Weight training has helped with my over all shape though, I am confident that while we might not have the kind of figure that naturally has a tiny wait compared to the rest of our measurements, we can be fit, and eventually get our bellys down.
One thing that helps in the appearance dept is to have built legs and shoulders. The wider the shoulders, the smaller the waist looks. Building glutes really contributes as well.
Stick with it! It will take a while before you see results, and they may be so gradual you might not even notice.
Take measurements. Take some pictures of you in your lingerie, then in 3 months try it on again and see how much better you look in it. If your stomach is your problem area it will be the very last place that you lose fat, it will prob go down a bit as the fat melts off other areas of your body, but it will be slower and take longer.
